Share your Thali Photo #Challenge by India Local Guides

Thali is an assortment of Indian delicacies served on a single platter.
There is no street in any city of India that does not have a food joint that serves a Thali.
In short the Thali is loved by all.

No need to decide which food to order.
The thali contains a variety of Indian breads, curries, chutneys, salads, drinks, and sweets. Thalis are sometimes limited and some are unlimited.

In the unlimited version, one can keep eating to your heart’s desire and they would give you a refill at no extra charge.

My recent Thali experience was from no other than Google - courtesy of @Latika_Malhotra Ji

30 local guides from various parts of India gathered in Pune for the Mega 50th Celebration Meetup and we went to the Sukhkarta Veg Dinning Hall.

The previous one was last month at the end of the Mega Meetup by ShubhamWaman.
I went to Naivedya Restaurant with my family on JM Road.

Before that was at Shankar Bhairav Restaurant in Jodhpur.
This too was a pure veg delight.

The one earlier that I remember was in Samrat Thali in Gurugram, not very far from Google’s India head office.

In this challenge:

  1. Please share the photo of your Thali.
  2. Share the Google Maps link of the Restaurant or dining hall.

The best 3 entries will get a special surprise during the upcoming “One Year Anniversary Meetup” of India Local Guides.

Here is Kolhapuri Kharda Mutton Thali I had in Baner locality in Pune. Kharda Mutton is spicy speciality of mutton made mainly with smashed green chillies (Thecha in Marathi), and no other spices. This tastes spice but delicious.

Check out my review of Kolhapuri Thaat on Google Maps :

I always prefer Thali instead of ordering separate dishes, because they have most of the things ready - except papad :laughing:

But no one else in my family prefers Thali :frowning_face:

Superb photos @Ru_pali4 :+1:
All Thalis are delicious :yum:

@TusharSuradkar As you mentioned Thali is a variety of dishes served in a single platter. And its really save our back when we are in a new place and couldnt decide what to order. I am also like to share a Thali’s pic with everyone Although it is not from any restaurant.


It was actually cooked by my Mother. And this is the most delicious Thali tried by me till now.
