Walk E Awadh - this name was suggested by the person who was actually behind our Lucknow Trip. And he is Souvik Bhattacharya. Due to some unavoidable circumstances, he might not make it to be with us in this trip, but he hasn't missed any of our food photos.
There was a research behind this trip too. And all of us, researched for this trip, in our own way. In fact, we were in a stage where we were like, "ebar toh khete giye bolei debo dada aapnake aami youtube video te dekhechhi."
If you have noticed my stories in insta / fb / whatsapp, you have already come to know that this trip was in and out a Food Trip, to be more precise, it was a food walk, that was named as Walk-E-Awadh.
Initially, 4 of us went. 3 went from Kolkata and I joined them directly from Benaras.
1st day, we were having our breakfast and uploading photos in our insta story. And a friend of us, Rohan, could not resist himself from not joining us. He booked his tickets and joined us.
Now I don't want to give a detailed story of this whole trip.
So, for now, I'm just giving a gist what we had in this whole trip.
