Descrição do tour
Calcutá abriga o único bairro chinês da Índia, fundado por imigrantes hakka e cantoneses no século XVIII, e o que resta dele é um mercado de rua que funciona das seis às oito da manhã e depois desaparece completamente. Mulheres montam mesas dobráveis em um beco e vendem momos recheados com carne de porco, sopa de bolinhos de peixe, pães no vapor e linguiças feitas segundo receitas chinesas que sobrevivem em Calcutá há duzentos anos. Às oito e meia, o local volta a ser apenas um beco vazio.
É aí que este passeio começa, por isso o tour se inicia às seis horas.
Depois, caminhamos até a College Street, o mercado de livros e distrito universitário, para saborear radhaballavi — um pão frito recheado com lentilhas moídas, servido com curry de batata temperado — e mishti doi, o iogurte doce servido em potes de barro que Bengala faz melhor do que qualquer outro lugar. Em seguida, vamos ao Indian Coffee House, um salão de teto alto que é ponto de encontro de estudantes, poetas e comunistas desde 1942, para tomar café por infusão e costeletas de carneiro.
Terminamos com daab sharbat, um sorbet de coco verde de uma loja que o prepara desde 1918.
Grupos pequenos, máximo de 8 participantes.

Outros avisos
Runs daily at 06:00. This is not a soft start time and we will not move it: the Tiretti Chinese breakfast market is finished by about eight thirty, and it is the reason this tour exists. Sunday is the biggest morning.
Note that the Indian Coffee House and some College Street shops are closed on Sundays, so on a Sunday we substitute and tell you in advance.
Durga Puja, which falls in October, closes most family-run sweet shops and many eateries for around ten days and makes the city centre impassable on foot in the evenings. We do not run during the main puja days and will tell you if your dates are affected.
Hygiene: Kolkata's municipal authority suspended the food licences of a number of well-known eateries in September 2026 after hygiene inspections. We do not use any premises under suspension, we re-check licence status before every departure, and we hold substitutes for every stop. On the tour itself: sealed bottled water only, no ice, no raw chutneys, no pre-cut fruit.
Dietary needs: tell us at least 48 hours ahead. The College Street half is easily vegetarian; the Tiretti half is pork-centred and we can substitute vegetable momo and soup with notice.
About 2 km of walking on flat but crowded streets.
