Amritsar is undoubtedly a foodie’s dream land, be it the hole-in-the-wall dhabas strewn across the city or the langar served at the Golden Temple! Here are the most iconic breakfast spots to head to right away: 

1. The Kulcha Land 

The classic kulcha makes for the perfect breakfast in Amritsar, and hence The Kulcha Land is where you need to head to, to devour the same! Amritsari Kulcha, Masala Kulcha and Paneer Kulcha are the only food items on the menu but they’re amazingly delicious! You can team it up with a chilled glass of Sweet or Masala Lassi and be good to go till lunch time or even later.

If the Golden Temple is number one on your list, we strongly suggest you partake in the Guru Ka Langar. Langar is a community feast prepared in a kitchen within the temple premises on a large scale (for at least 40,000 people). Everybody is welcome and is seated in rows while they are served by volunteers. The devotion of service to community is absolutely tear jerking. Their  Kada Prasad is treasured around the world!

This place serves some lip-smacking dishes which are sure to make your day start on a great note. We’d recommend having the chef’s special Amritsari Kulcha Thali, and of course a huge glass of lassi to go with it!
