BEST Punjabi Thaali with LASSI I Maa Ki Dal & TRIANGLE Parantha I BAISAKHI Celebrations in PUNJAB

Today's episode is about last our year's visit to the city of Jalandhar to experience the festive gaiety surrounding the festival of Baisakhi. Baisakhi is a major festival of Punjab that is celebrated in the month of April and that marks the beginning of harvesting season. It also marks the foundation of the Khalsa community of the Sikhs by Guru Gobind Singh. The festival is celebrated with great fanfare and spirit.
We started the day by visiting the Gurdwara with our host Naina. Devotees had gathered there in large numbers to seek blessings. After paying obeisance we partook the langar prasad along with meethe chawal, which is primary dish prepared during this festival.
Next we went to Haveli restaurant to try their Baishakhi special spread. The place is wonderfully decorated with quintessential artifacts related to Punjabi culture and tradition. This huge restaurant was colourful, vibrant and cheerful. Their Baishakhi thali was as stunning as their ambience. It was an amalgamation of traditional Punjabi fares that were delicious. Our host Gehna enlightened us both about the place and the food. After the meal we visited their other section which is a representation of a quintessential Punjabi village with great attention to details. This place was like a museum as well where some records of the glorious heritage have been nicely presented. Here too they have a food section where you get the 'maa ke hath ka paratha'. Although we were full, we had to try it because. It was simply outstanding.
