Local Community:
West Bengal is a deep convergence of diverse cultures and can be rightly called, a cradle of irresistible specialties, evident in the clothing, fooding, geography and art seen in the state. It can truly be considered as the melting pot of the nation’s rich culture and heritage. From local specialties like Roshogolla, to the savoury Phuchka,from the traditional hearty Bengali meals to their contemporary counterparts; it is true that Bengal’s culture has immensely evolved with the changing time! In our local community, one can see a wide range of clothing, but none more than the sarees for women and kurtas for men. The saree, originally the famous blend of red and white have over the years attained a modern, newer face, keeping pace with the modernising world. This website is a synthesis of all the aspects that contribute to Kolkata's aeons of cultural richness by reflecting on the essence of the city's native specialties, be it food, flowers, apparel, or art!
