Kohalpur


Glad we covered 25 districts out of 75 on my last road trip with dad and Prakash uncle to the east, this time it was west we headed to. We made it to extreme east on my last tour and to the west this time. Kohalpur, our first pit, also became our junction to go back and forth. We didnt do much on the day we arrived, except that we went to mela and around. Despite the mela being agricultural, it was pretty loud and a crowded place for people to enjoy live concert. People were dancing loud. Well! the music was and so were audience. What I loved the most was this 'chaat' Basu uncle recommended. There came along his story of cycling long distance just for the sake of this 'chaat' during his time. I guess it was well deserved. It was yummy, quite different to what I've experienced so far. The road side was full on with food carts of savoury snacks like the one we tried, chaat and there were others.  Here's more-
