Rajat Kapoor Loves To Gorge On Daulat Ki Chaat
Delhiite Tonakshi could not stop gushing about the delicious Bedmi Aloos of Chandni Chowk, but little did she know that she would find her foodie match in Rajat Kapoor. “I love Bedmi Aloos!” exclaimed Rajat with a huge grin.
From Parathas and Bedmi Aloo to Falooda Kulfi and Kachoris, Rajat was on a mission to taste it all! But the duo’s ultimate craving was a winter-exclusive treat! Any guesses? Of course, it was the Daulat ki Chaat and creamy Rabri that stole their hearts.
When Tonakshi showered big laurels on the delicious Daulat ki Chaat in Chandni Chowk, Rajat exclaimed, “I love Daulat ki Chaat, that’s a really special memory for me. During my childhood, I found out that Daulat was the name of the guy who sold the chaat, not the chaat itself!” Well, thanks to the actor for the much-needed information!
