great to hear of a good buffet at Rs 200. Surprisingly there are many good vegetarian dishes - luchi (soft puris), chholar daal (channa daal), alu posto (potato in poppy seeds), shukta (a slightly bitter appetiser), slu bhaja (Indian fries) and phuchkas (pani puris, hundred times better) and all our sweets are vegetarian! Don't be taken in by our fish posturing :) You can take a look at my food blog http://finelychopped-k.blogspot.com/ and the bengali section for some stuff.

I just saw a documentary on the revival of commercial bengali food- inotherwords, formerly they said it was more homecooked- but they are seeing a upswing of it being available in more eating spots etc. It was great hearing of your experience.

Having stayed in Orissa have a slight bit of idea about the food of Eastern India but never liked it much :-(

Guess it comes from the fact that I don't eat non-veg.
