Neelam’s

Amritsar


Not far from the Golden Temple, this tiny two-tone eatery is a convenient spot to recharge your batteries. It does some quick-and-easy multicuisine dishes, including breakfasts and some South Indian staples; don’t miss the kulcha (₹70), served with a chickpea side dish and a spicy chutney.
