Let's celebrate #TastyThursday with some Ghar ka khana, shall we?

Food connects people across oceans and borders. Ghar ka khana, of course, has a separate fanbase of its own. Here are a few pictures we found online that will leave you drooling

While 2 am Maggi is comfort food like none other, there are great odds that you have felt nostalgic for Ghar ka khana with every forkful on your plate. Lip-smacking and inherently healthy, these morsels are meant to be more than 'just' food. They are memories and a legacy that's passed around among generations — a piece of your heart, your family. Let's ride along such moments on Instagram, shall we?

Guests become family over meals. Period.

At my friend's house in Kolkata? I love paneer. I stayed four families during our travel in India. Each family has a different home taste. コルカタ友人の家で。今回のインド旅では違う州の4つの家族の家に泊まった。コルカタの友人の家の料理はマイルドで優しい味。それぞれ家庭の味は違う。家庭料理おいしい?
