"The discovery of a new dish does more for human happiness than the discovery
of a new star"
Anthelme Brillat-Savarin
If you are a foreigner to India, tasting the exclusively Indian cuisines would
be nothing but the discovery of a new dish for you. Like other places in this
country, Bodhgaya, a small city near Gaya in Bihar would also provide you a
wide range of restaurants and eateries to satisfy your taste buds. Come to this
city of Bodhgaya and enjoy the Indian cuisine as well as the exclusively Bihar
dishes. What/Where to Eat in Bodhgaya would not be a question to bother you
since the place abounds in restaurants.
Try the Root Institute, no matter if you aren't a guest there. You can give
them a phone call to make a reservation for a meal. You can eat in a nice place
near the dinning room, outdoors. They make delicious meals, vegetarian but enjoyable.
Besides, the Om restaurant is a small place in the main road, near the Mahabodhi
Temple. Try it.
Besides, you will find here several other restaurants which will serve you
popular Indian cuisines along with Chinese and Continental.
To say something about food or dish of Bodhgaya, one thing must be mentioned
that it is the dish of sweet which Buddha got from a Brahmin maiden named Sujata
after he reached Bodhi by three-day non-stop meditation sitting under a Pipal
tree over here. However, it's altogether a different issue that sweet has not
become a favorite dish in India following this tradition of Bodhi.
Anyway, jokes apart, there is no special menu you will find in Bodhgaya. But
you will get multiple restaurants which will serve you the Bihar cuisines along
with other ones. Come to this place for once at least!
