Chingri Malai Curry @ 6 Ballygunge Place

There's no denying (unless you're allergic or a vegetarian) that Chingri Malai Curry (aka, prawn malai curry) tops the list when it comes to Kolkata cuisine. A favourite across the length and breadth of Bengal that has gone on to garner fame in the country and elsewhere, the creamy smooth curry with a hint of sweetness from the coconut milk and those juicy big prawns are just what it takes to make us drool. Of course, my mom's malai curry is the best ever, but if you want something as exceptional, then head over to 6 Ballygunge Place and make a meal of it with plain rice.
