फूलबाग कानपुर - Stories of Kanpur

PhoolBagh Website 2025 First Post

The PhoolBagh Editorial Team decided to sample the chaos of the GT Road on Makar Sankrant 2025 in Kanpur. And what a chaos it was.

Kanpur still does not have a proper policy, for safe usage of roads and public transport for pedestrians and those choosing to travel or walk by foot. It is the age of road rage and large splashy cars to flaunt one's status in Kanpur and Uttar Pradesh. But if you are a Civil Servant, you of course have the luxury of a horn, blue lights, and proper bandobast by eager police constables.

But woe to the ordinary pedestrians, of Kanpur, still to taste the benfits of Kanpur being termed a Metro City !!

So it is best to loiter and go with the flow of chaotic road traffic in Kanpur City.

We decided to focus on the better side of KAnpur.

Food !! And a proper South Indian Masala Dosa.

A proper Dosa by Anna himself. at the crossing at Gurdev Palace seemed a nice place to shelter, as a poor and forgettable pedestrian submerged in Kanpur traffic.

Anna Dosa was Rs 60 and the Sambhar and Chutney were runny and not too bad. Anna even came around to offer a considerate, second helping of the runny chutney that had seen some coconut days sometime for sure.

The best part was the utterly unique JalliKattu poster of young Anna taming a bull !!

If you have seen the JalliKattu poster at Dosa by Anna in Kanpur, after getting down from the sanity of Kanpur Metro at Gurdev Palace into the pedestrian chaos do write to us at PhoolBagh and share your experiences at info@phoolbagh.com
