The chef shared a long caption describing the details of Jammu’s patte wale rajma chawal. She wrote, “Jammu’s landscape is as rich and layered as this amazing Patte Wale Rajma Chawal topped with paneer and that tangy khatta masala synonymous with Dogra cuisine! Here, they’ve taken classic Jammu-style Rajma Chawal to a whole new level by adding creamy paneer, which I love for that extra protein hit. And the rajma here? They’re smaller, with a slightly different flavour than the larger beans you find across the North, thanks to the fertile soil of Jammu’s lush valleys." The chef also appreciated the vendor Rakesh, and wrote, “But it’s not just the food – it’s the energy of Rakesh, the guy cooking, that makes this spot unforgettable. He’s a whirlwind of warmth and energy, greeting every customer with a smile, shouting out orders with pure enthusiasm, and moving fast to serve each plate with a generous spirit. Watching him in action, you feel like you’re part of something special."
