Settling into the rhythm of Jaipur, a city in India pulsing with life and where history is not just etched into its pink sandstone walls but is alive in its streets and its people, I find myself on a journey through taste, time, and tradition.

The Pink City, as it’s lovingly called due to the blush-hued buildings that define its historic centre, holds its past close. Jaipur’s culinary scene is a rich tapestry that mirrors the vibrant saris that dance in the breeze and the turbans that are as colourful as the city itself.
