Blue Lassi Shop

A tiny family-run lassi shop deep in the old-city lanes near Manikarnika Ghat, run for three generations and serving around 80 kinds of thick lassi in clay cups, topped with malai. The walls are covered in travellers' photos and notes. It's a classic stop on a walk through the old town — try a banana or fruit-and-nut lassi.
