Ram Bhandar, Thatheri Bazaar

What people say, in short
The Ram Bhandar in Thatheri Bazaar is repeatedly recommended for a Banarasi breakfast of kachori sabzi and jalebi. One diner prefers its badi kachori to the smaller version. The enthusiasm is not universal: some visitors call it overhyped or prefer less-famous shops. A visitor reports that the shop moved a short distance, so check the current location rather than relying on an old landmark.
