Gourmet Feasts

Like most off-beat locations, hotels have their in-house restaurants. Remember, it'll almost be a crime to leave without sampling some of the Assamese cuisine, which includes rice, fish and a variety of desserts. Authentic local cuisine is available in and around Paltan Bazaar. Visit the Paradise Restaurant located near the Airport - it serves a wide variety of Indian, Continental, and Chinese fares. Xica, another newly opened restaurant near Paradise, offers Thai and Mexican dishes. The Dhaba, as the name says serves a good range of tandoori items. An interesting meals would be onboard the Aapni Nao, which is a floating restaurant serving marwari cuisine. Located in the Fancy Bazaar area, Maruti and Gopal Maharaj are popular with families. For dessert, head out to the local mithaiwalas for pithas (cakes) larus, and other sweetmeats.
