What kind of seafood can you expect in West Bengal? 1. Hilsa This fish holds a very special place in the hearts and taste buds of Bengalis. This fish is popular for its unique taste, soft texture and a distinct mouth-watering flavour. This fish can survive both in marine and freshwater. Hilsa is usually caught in the Ganges in West Bengal and in the delta of Padma, Meghna and Jamuna river. Usually in West Bengal, it appears in the market during the monsoon but due to its high demand, Hilsa fish is also imported from neighbour countries such as Bangladesh and Myanmar.

T H E S E A  F O O D O F I N D I A ~ HELLO DEAR READER ! I'm Krishna Pankaj Thakur, a student and also a food enthusiast, currently pursuing culinary arts from ITM Institute of Hotel Management, Oshiwara, Mumbai.   Luckily I've got an opportunity to play the role of a blogger as part of my assessment this semester.
