Top 5 Restaurants offering awesome Corn Dishes in Ahmedabad this season
We all love to eat corn especially during the rainy season
09 Aug, 2019 by Sonal Kellogg
Come rains and we can see people making a beeline to eat corn, whether it is at roadside carts, cafes or even fine dining restaurants. Corn or maize is a staple diet for many people across the world. We in India use cornflour to make Makki Ki Roti and use it in various preparations but eating Corn On The Cob or Corn kernels in chaats, salads and other preparations is something which is special and during the rainy season when maize is in season its truly a delight.
Amdavadis can be seen lining up at road-side carts where boiled or roasted Corn On The Cob is sold whenever it rains or when it gets cloudy and the skies are overcast. Many restaurants introduce corn dishes in their menus during this time so one can find Corn Fritters, Corn Soup, Corn Chaat, Corn Subzis and lots of such varieties.
We have chosen for you some of the best corn dishes which are being served by restaurants including one chain of restaurants which is holding a corn festival at this time.
