Haveli - Authentic flavors of Punjab!

There is a punjabi quote which goes like : "Jehri Mauj Chhaju De Chobare, Na Oh Balakh Na Bukhare" It literally means - "East or West, Home is the best!". And that is something which I've experienced when visited Haveli Amritsar. Haveli invited me to attend the bloggers meet. On arrival, we were greeted with chilled homemade Lassi in Earthenware Cup which broke my tiredness of driving 21 km from Amritsar city to the location. That was the taste which I expect whenever I had a desire for Lassi. I introduced myself to the other members who were there to attend this bloggers meet. We have shared our past experiences with food and traveling. I must say that the people I met there were so humble and nice. All this was happening under this beautiful roof which is designed to give you a feel of typical Punjabi Dhaba. Take a look at these pictures below : we continued our conversations till other members were arrived at the location.
