“Chokho Jeeman”..the name says it all.That was ‘the’ perfect review about the most perfect place for eating out in agra.But r u sure about the prices?maharaja thali is priced at Rs. 90..i guess,which is also quite reasonable though.And for those who r allergic to ghee,they also offer this saada thali,which includes dry chapaaties,n also not that large variety of sabzis..with lesser ghee.N DJ,have u noticed those beautiful lanterns..n the traditional maroon wooden frame mirror above the washbasin?
Since u are a recent visitor to chokho jeeman,u wouldnt perhaps be knowing that it used to b a single hall,air-cooled place until a few months ago.N was majorly used by the people visiting agra on business or company tours..obviously coz of its vicinity to the RKM rly. station n its low prices.But as they say,quality speaks for itself n soon it became popular with the local agraites..and what u see now,is its latest renovated version..thats not just air-conditioned..but also equipped with an RO plant..brand new interiors n the newly attached bigger hall clearly state the success story of ‘chokho jeeman’.. literally meaning delightful eating in marwadi.

Well, what a coincidence ! Here, at Orange County, California, theres an Indian hub called Artesia. We found out a Indian restaurant there named the Rajdhaani and serves exactly the same kind of food that you have mentioned. We go there every weekend, have a huge meal , skip everything else and doze off !

I like the place and wish it was closer our apartment instead of the 20 min ride that we have to take every time ….
