Agra, once the stronghold of the mighty Mughals, may surprise many with its culinary story. While one might expect it to be the birthplace of Mughlai cuisine, history shows that the refined traditions of Mughlai food truly flourished later in the royal kitchens of the Nawabs of Awadh in Lucknow.
Even so, Agra offers a vibrant food culture that blends royal legacies with local flavors. From aromatic curries, kebabs, and rich pulaos in luxury hotels to street delights like spicy chaats and the famous Agra petha, the city caters to every taste.
Today, Agra is a paradise for food lovers, where an Agra Food Tour means more than just dining—it’s an immersion into centuries of culinary heritage in the shadow of the Taj Mahal.
