Brunch in Raikot
No avocado toast here - Raikot's late-morning meal is parathas and lassi at a dhaba, or langar at the gurudwara. Here's how the town does it.
Brunch, Raikot-style
Raikot doesn't do brunch as a concept - no cafe will serve you eggs Benedict. What it does is a long, unhurried late morning meal, and there are three honest versions of it.
The three options
Dhaba breakfast
Aloo and gobhi parathas with white butter, a glass of lassi, and chai that keeps coming. The closest thing Raikot has to a weekend brunch ritual - arrive by 10, leave when you feel like it.
Langar at Tahliana Sahib
After the morning diwan, the langar hall serves dal, sabzi and rotis to everyone who sits down. Simple, filling, free - and the most Raikot breakfast there is.
Bakery run
Rusk, buns, patties and cake for the takeaway breakfast - the town's bakery shelf, honest and cheap.
Common questions

What's a typical Raikot breakfast?
Parathas with lassi at a dhaba, or langar at the gurudwara. Chai everywhere, all morning.
