People categorize Indian food as north Indian and south Indian food due to its distinct difference in ingredients and flavors. North Indian food, unlike the heavily popularised myths, is quite mild instead of being spicy. The cuisine has curries tempered with cream, yogurt or milk to have a milder taste.

However, if you prefer it being bland or cannot handle spice at all, it is best if you go for kormas, biryanis, pulaos and makhani. North Indian food usually has a rich meat or veggie dish in thick gravy of tomato, onion and yogurt, served with a type of bread (because we have many options to choose from!)

Characterise South Indian cuisine with thin savoury pancakes, chilli and coconut flavors and prepare rice in various forms of dishes. The most popular foods are dosa, idli sambhar, uttapam and vada. You can also find amazing non – vegetarian dishes here which are usually mild to medium spicy.

Chicken, mutton, lamb and fish are popular all over India for non – vegetarian options. Since Indian people are mostly vegetarian, you will find a range of veggie based dishes that will blow your mind. That’s not to say that non – vegetarian options are lacking! On the contrary, the ways in which the dishes are prepared will make you want to try them all.

However, you need to remember that beef is not available everywhere in India because of religious Hindu beliefs. And Muslims won’t touch pork, so you can only find these options in limited places and shops. Even if you do find them, you need to ensure that the place isn’t a run – down operation and serves good quality food.

As you might have noticed in your visit to India, most Indians seem to run on chai (tea) and a comparatively small percentage prefers coffee. So there is a huge café culture in India, where you can usually find everyone from youngsters to working professionals.

Since India is known for its amazing fresh tea leaves especially in north India, there are many different varieties of tea found in India. People temper the teas with various flavors such as adrak, elaichi, rose, lemon, mixed spices, etc. It would obviously be best if you try it in the clay kulhad (cups) they are generally served in.

For coffee, you would best stick to south Indian style coffee because you won’t anything like it anywhere else. From the filter coffee to the milky coffee of Kerala, these are the authentic ways in India. For more options, you can visit famous local cafes for several types of coffee preparations.
