Keeping Tollygaunge at its west, Golf Green at its south, and Jadavpur towards its east, our daily call for meeting in the famous “lords-er-more” can backtrack through the pages of history and peoples’ memories to the renowned Lord’s Bakery that was prevalent years ago. The place was indeed a solace. The smell of fresh bread and cakes, produced in the bakery was throughout the area. You can get the smell from far away and enjoy its pleasure in your senses.
Situated on this four-way intersection, the amazing smell with the mouth watery flavors, was a popular search in the city. However, the bakery is no longer seen today. Nor is there any fresh smell. It was disregarded when PA Shah Road was widened in 1975. People found their solace elsewhere. The smell of fresh bread and biscuits are now encountered with the smell of chicken Shawarma and Rolls and Momos and cheese…. Together with coming up as a mixture of modern Kolkata and its needs.
Perhaps, food is one of our basic needs. We survive to eat and simultaneously eat to survive. With the changing time, our food favoritism also changed. No matter what it is now, it can equally bring peace and satisfaction during a period of discomfort or mental crises.
Presenting, the new solace of Kolkata, Lords More! The Market where you can get any kind of cuisine, be it Chinese, continental, Indian, Bengali, Street food, Italian, and so on. The smells now are integrated and come in combination. Even though, the pollution and the traffic is an interruption. The solace that you fetch from food is still equally present.
