As the first rays of sunlight illuminate the bustling streets of Kolkata, a city teeming with life and history, they unveil a vibrant tableau of sights, sounds, and scents that are quintessentially Bengali. Amidst the symphony of honking yellow Ambassador taxis and the animated chatter of locals bargaining with vendors, there's a scent that beckons, a scent that leads you on a journey through the culinary wonders of Bengal.
