Amritsar Food Notes: Kesar Da Dhaba Vegetarian Thali

Kesar Da Dhaba was one of the main sit-down vegetarian meal stops from this Amritsar food route. During the newer visit, we tried a vegetarian thali with palak paneer.

What we tried

We had a vegetarian thali at Kesar Da Dhaba, including palak paneer. From this visit, all the dishes worked well together as a proper meal after walking through the inner city lanes.

What I liked

The thali was a good vegetarian meal stop in the old city. I liked that the meal felt complete, especially after covering nearby food stops and walking through the lanes.

Nearby tip

Kesar Da Dhaba, Pahalwan Kulche Wala and Jalebiyaan Wala are all inner-city stops. It is easier to reach this area by rickshaw and then walk.

Vegetarian, vegan and kid notes

Kesar Da Dhaba was pure vegetarian during our visit. Vegan options are not confirmed because thali items may include dairy or ghee. For kids, ask about spice level before ordering.
