The Kulcha Land, Ranjit Avenue

Although every outlet in Amritsar serves great kulcha breads, this is one of the best places to have a divine creation. They offer a variety of kulchas like masala kulcha, Amritsari kulcha, and paneer kulcha. You may also get several kinds of stuffing in Amritsari kulcha, such as onion, potato, cauliflower, soya, mushroom, and dry fruits. However, you may have to wait a little for satisfying your taste buds, as the place is usually crowded. If you are visiting for the first time, then prefer an Amritsari kulcha, served with nicely spiced chickpeas and yummy lassi drink.

Cost for two: Approx. Rs. 200
