Sea food is the specialty of Bengali cuisine, there are a lot of local varieties (of fish) such as Hilsa, Rahu, Katla, which are all river water fish or pond fishes. The lobsters too are yummy. One of the best buffets is served at Peerless Inn. If one wants budget affair, one can try joints connecting to Mirza Ismail Street.

Rosgulla is the favourite desert in Kolkata, which is considered a great source of energy. It is advisable to eat the same in the morning so that one is well prepared to brave the entire humid day. Misti Doi is a sweet yoghurt served in an earthen pot with different flavours, ideal for diabetics with low sugar content. There are other deserts such as kheer, ras malai, Srikand and various combos of milk products sold on the streets and exclusive counters. K.C. Das happens to be a branded seller in the segment.
