Punjab Doabs · Upper Indus–Gangetic Plain

दुकानें और बाज़ार

Kesar Da DhabaAmritsarसे Early twentieth century

Dal, lachha paratha with ghee, and phirni in an earthen bowl

A vegetarian dhaba in a lane of the old city, run by a family that moved from what became Pakistan. It serves a fixed short menu, which is the older dhaba model before menus grew.

Bharawan Da DhabaAmritsarसे Early twentieth century

Vegetarian Punjabi thali, paneer and dal

Near the Town Hall; another pre-partition family business that reopened on this side of the line.

The Amritsar fish shopsAmritsar

Ajwain-heavy batter-fried river fish, sold by weight in winter

Concentrated in a few lanes and near the Majitha road; the fish is fried to order and eaten standing, and the season is roughly October to March.

Malerkotla jutti bazaarMalerkotla

Hand-stitched and tilla-embroidered juttis, sold from the workshops that make them

Buying here is buying from the maker. Ask whether the upper is hand-embroidered or machine-run; the price difference is large and not always disclosed.

Katra Jaimal Singh and the Amritsar cloth katrasAmritsar

Phulkari, dupattas, suit lengths and woollens, organised by commodity lane

Almost all phulkari on open sale is machine embroidery. Hand darn on khaddar is sold through cooperatives and a handful of specialists and costs several times as much.

Verka and the Milkfed outletsAcross Punjab

Milk, ghee, paneer, lassi and kheer from the state dairy cooperative federation

The cooperative structure is the institutional descendant of the household churn — village societies collecting milk twice a day and pooling it.
