FOOD IN BHOPAL

1. Jamal Bhai Tea Shop

Suleimani Chai is a special variety of tea that offers a fine balance of flavors, with a hint of sugar and salt. Served with a generous dollop of cream, it is sure to intrigue your taste buds and open your senses to a new day. This type of tea is offered in several parts of India, but the variety served in Bhopal is truly unique. And no better place to enjoy this tea, than Jamal Bhai Tea Shop at Itawar Chowk in Old Bhopal. You will know you have reached the right place when you see a large crowd of people sipping tea. The tea is served from a large samovar (something similar to a boiler used in the south). This slightly unusual and salty tea is certain to leave you mesmerized and wanting more.

2. Paya Soup in Chatori Gali

Chatori Gali is to Bhopal what Chandni Chowk is to Delhi, or Mohammed Ali Road is to Mumbai. If you happen to come to this food heaven, you simply cannot miss the mutton Paya soup, lamb slow-boiled in a broth all day long and delicately spiced. Quite unlike the Paya soup found in other parts of the country, the Paya soup served here is quite thick (by use of corn or wheat flour) and is less oily as well. Come sundown, the deliciously thick soup is poured into bowls, and is garnished with lamb shreds, spices and chopped coriander. It serves as a great appetizer, before you embark on a memorable gastronomic adventure in this humble gali.

3. Poha Jalebi at Kalyan Singh’s Swaad Bhandar

If you are in the mood for some vegetarian goodness, the first place you should head out to is Kalyan Singh’s Swad Bhandar. Located on the east side of the Jama Masjid, off Itwara Road, it is always crowded and noisy here. Fresh, hot, moist, light and spicy Bhopali Poha garnished with a generous helping of crispy sev and served with some oh-so-yummy jalebis, it is sure to teleport you to food heaven. Poha Jalebi is the most famous breakfast that can be found all over M.P., but the best is found in Indore. These same Indoris serve this delicacy in Bhopal, making it a sumptuous and memorable breakfast that is light, enjoyable, delicious and easy on the pocket. Wash it down with a piping hot cup of Suleimani chai, and you can face all the troubles of the day head on.

4. Cycle Soupwala and Sagar Gaire Snacks

Bhopal’s famous Cycle Soupwala, located in Number 10, is a real-life rags-to-riches story. The owner of this humble eatery, so named because he sells delicious soup on a bicycle, came to this city from Nepal. He started off by selling three types of soup: tomato, sweet corn and manchow on a bicycle, to satisfy the hunger pangs of students and office-goers alike. His soup stall set him on the path to success and today he owns a chain of eateries in Bhopal, that serve everything from cold coffee to sandwiches, dosas to chole kulche. Neither his soup nor his eateries are something you should miss if you are in Bhopal, and looking for some yummy food.

5. Bade ke Kebab at Jhili Miyaan

After a hard day’s work, if you are looking for something to set your taste buds on fire, Jhili Miyaan is the place to be. Located at the beginning of the Chatori Galli, this tiny shop sells the most amazing melt-in-your-mouth kebabs. Bade ke Kebab are essentially beef kebabs, made from minced beef, marinated all day in a spice mix. The kebabs are then rolled by hand, fried on a hot pan and stuffed inside grilled buns. The entire dish is made-to-order and is always served steaming hot served with a mix of onions, chutneys and chilies. Juicy, succulent kebabs, served with hot buns and a spicy chutney, is sure to melt away all your troubles. You can eat to your stomach’s content but never to your heart’s content!

6. Bhopali Paan

Paan is the traditional Indian way to end a meal in style. It is loved and consumed all over the country, and each region adds its own unique touch to the paan. Bhopali paan is very famous all over the country, and when you are here, this is not something you must miss. It is a pastry made from betel nut, stuffed with chuna, kattha and supari, and a generous dollop of gulkand. Paan-making is considered an art in Bhopal, and is part of the local culture. It is usually consumed as a mouth freshener though people can be found chewing paan throughout the day.

7. Shahi Tukda in Koh-e-Fiza

If all the spicy food is making you nauseous and you need a refresher, Shahi Tukda is what you should have. Indulgence that is easy on the pocket, Shahi Tukda is the perfect sweet treat for you. It is made of fried bread soaked in a decadent custard, and garnished with nuts and spices. Don’t worry if things turn too sweet, that’s how it is meant to be in Bhopal. Koh-e-Fiza is the place to have this rich delicacy.

8. Kebabs at Jameel

After a hard day of shopping and doing touristy things in Old Bhopal, if you are on the hunt for some pet-pooja, head out to Jameel in Ibrahimpura. This is a busy lane in a busy area of the market housing a lot of bakeries, and the food is to die for! Rich succulent kebabs made of chicken or mutton, delicious egg curry and mutton stew ? all at a pocket-friendly price. Delicious food, fast service with affordable pricing, what else is it that you need?

9. Chaat at 6 Number Stop Hawkers Corner

If you are in the newer side of town and looking for some place to appease your taste buds, this one will not disappoint you. The Hawkers corner in 6 Number stop is sure to leave you drooling. Famous for all types of chaat like pani puri, dahi puri, bhel puri and chole tikki, and ice golas and faloodas, for those looking for something sweet, this is the most famous place to grab a quick bite. Special recommendation ? try the samosa kachori chaat. Tangy, tasty, spicy goodness that tickles your taste buds, leaving you wanting more.

10. Raju Tea Stall

Also known as Fareed Bhai’s tea stall, it is hard to come across a Bhopali who has never had tea from this iconic tea stall, which is a landmark in itself. Situated in Old Bhopal near the Peer Gate area, it is the best location to have a cuppa with friends. Enjoy a steaming hot cup of Nawabi tea, which was a favorite of the royals and is famous among the locals, have some piping hot snacks, and just watch the city go by.

11. Barfi Rasmalai at Surendra Jain’s stall

If you happen to be near the Jama Masjid, head over to the chowk adjacent to the masjid to taste something you have probably never tasted before ? barfi rasmalai drona. It is perhaps as whacky as it sounds, and is super-delicious. He takes a drona ( bowl made from dried leaves) , heaps up crushed ice, and then laps it up in a sweet, rich rabri, flavored syrup and rose water. Ice-cold, sweet and delicious, you would want to keep eating more of this wonderful street food. Have a bowlful as a palate refresher before you dig in through all those meat treats in Chatori Galli.

12. Manohar Dairy and Restaurant

If you are in Bhopal, this is one place you absolutely must visit. A landmark in itself, Manohar Dairy and Restaurant has been standing tall since 1970 in Hamidia Road, and has been a witness to the growth of this buzzing city. As they keep adding in new restaurants and introducing a whole new array of dishes, the yesteryear charm is still intact. Two of their must-try dishes are the dahi puri and the chhole puri/kulche ? relished and recommended by generations of Bhopalis for years together.

13. Haji Lassiwala

A rich, decadent shake made from milk and cream, served with a generous helping of glassy, sugary, sweet noodles ? that is falooda for you. To make it even more irresistible, several flavoring syrups, dried fruits and nuts are added. It is a uniquely Indian dish and it is best had after a long post-dinner walk. And the best place to have it is Haji Lassiwala at Itwara Chowk in Old Bhopal. Locals say it is the world’s best falooda, and if a Bhopali says that, it might just be true!

14. Al Beik

This food joint has multiple franchises across Bhopal. An economical substitute to KFC, Al Beik serves mouth-watering Chicken Burgers, Nuggets, Chicken Strips making it a must-visit place for all chicken lovers.

Basic Anion-Exchange Resin-Catalyzed Aldol Condensation of Aromatic Ketones with Aldehydes in Continuous Flow

 organic chemistry, PROCESS  Comments Off on Basic Anion-Exchange Resin-Catalyzed Aldol Condensation of Aromatic Ketones with Aldehydes in Continuous Flow
Apr 262019
 
Abstract Image

A general method for the aldol condensation of aromatic ketones with aldehydes was developed under continuous-flow conditions using a commercially available, strongly basic anion-exchange resin (A26) as catalyst. This procedure, in addition to exhibiting a wide substrate scope, promoted carbon–carbon bond formation under mild conditions using a quasi-stoichiometric ratio of starting reagents with good to excellent yields, thereby forming a limited amount of waste and allowing the process to be applied to sequential-flow systems. A proof of concept was developed in the first fully heterogeneously catalyzed two-step flow synthesis of donepezil, which is a blockbuster commercial anti-Alzheimer’s drug.

Design, synthesis and antimicrobial activity of usnic acid derivatives

 Author affiliations

Abstract

Usnic acid, a dibenzofuran, was originally isolated from lichens producing secondary metabolites, and is well known as an antibiotic, but is also endowed with several other interesting properties. Thus, the goal of this paper is the design of new usnic acid derivatives and evaluation of their antimicrobial activity. All newly synthesized compounds possess good antibacterial activity with MIC ranging from 1.02–50.93 × 10−2 mmol mL−1 and MBC from 2.05–70.57 × 10−2 mmol mL−1. The most sensitive bacterial species was Staphylococcus aureus, while Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli were the most resistant among the ATCC strains, and MRSA was the most resistant among all tested bacteria (ATCC and clinical isolates). Their antifungal activity was very strong (MIC = 0.35–7.53 × 10−2 mmol mL−1 and MFC = 0.70–15.05 × 10−2 mmol mL−1) – better than those of reference compounds and usnic acid itself. The most sensitive fungal species was Trichoderma viride, while Penicillium versicolor var. cyclopium appeared to be the most resistant. It should be mentioned that in general most of the compounds showed weaker antibacterial activity, but better antifungal properties than usnic acid itself. The results allow us to conclude that the title compounds are good lead compounds for novel more active antibacterial drugs. On the other hand, these compounds are very promising as antifungals.

Structural evolution of carbon in an Fe@C catalyst during the Fischer–Tropsch synthesis reaction

Abstract

A pseudo-in situ research method was applied to provide insight into the structural evolution of carbon in an Fe@C catalyst at different stages of the Fischer–Tropsch reaction. Five typical stages of the catalyst were selected for in-depth structural investigation; these were: the fresh catalyst, reduced catalyst, and catalyst in the stable conversion period, in an increased-conversion period and at the inactivation stage. The results indicated that the integral structure of Fe@C constantly changed in the Fischer–Tropsch reaction. Iron carbide transformed from the Fe phase that was easily oxidized under high temperature Fischer–Tropsch conditions, and the carbon framework was completely destroyed in the reaction process, leading to a drastic decrease in the specific surface area of the material. This destruction could have two opposing effects: on the one hand, the loss of carbon could re-expose the active sites that have been covered by carbon at a reaction temperature of 320 °C and favor the reaction; on the other hand, the deposition of carbon could block the active sites and lead to inactivation when the reaction temperature is over 340 °C.

Telescoped Sequence of Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions in Multistep Flow Synthesis

 FLOW CHEMISTRY, flow synthesis  Comments Off on Telescoped Sequence of Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions in Multistep Flow Synthesis
Jan 312019
 

 

Abstract Image

A multistep sequential flow synthesis of isopropyl phenol is demonstrated, involving 4-step exothermic, endothermic, and temperature sensitive reactions such as nitration, reduction, diazotization, and high temperature hydrolysis. Nitration of cumene with fuming nitric acid produces 2- and 4-nitrocumene which are converted into respective cumidines by the hydrogenation using Pd/Ni catalyst in H-cube with gravity separation. Hydrolysis of in situ generated diazonium salts in the boiling acidic conditions is carried out using integration of flow and microwave-assisted synthesis. 58% of 4-isopropyl phenol was obtained. The sequential flow synthesis can be applied to synthesize other organic compounds involving this specific sequence of reactions.

A solvent-free catalytic protocol for the Achmatowicz rearrangement

 green chemistry, spectroscopy, SYNTHESIS  Comments Off on A solvent-free catalytic protocol for the Achmatowicz rearrangement
Jan 292019
 

Graphical abstract: A solvent-free catalytic protocol for the Achmatowicz rearrangement

Abstract

Reported here is the development of an environmentally friendly catalytic (KBr/oxone) and solvent-free protocol for the Achmatowicz rearrangement (AchR). Different from all previous methods is that the use of chromatographic alumina (Al2O3) allows AchR to proceed smoothly in the absence of any organic solvent and therefore considerably facilitates the subsequent workup and purification with minimal environmental impacts. Importantly, this protocol allows for scaling up (from milligram to gram), recycling of the Al2O3, and integrating with other reactions in a one-pot sequential manner.

Graphical abstract: Eco-friendly decarboxylative cyclization in water: practical access to the anti-malarial 4-quinolones

Abstract

An environmentally benign decarboxylative cyclization in water has been developed to synthesize 4-quinolones from readily available isatoic anhydrides and 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds. Isatins are also compatible for the reaction to generate 4-quinolones in the presence of TBHP in DMSO. This protocol provides excellent yields under mild conditions for a broad scope of 4-quinolones, and has good functional group tolerance. Only un-harmful carbon dioxide and water are released in this procedure. Moreover, the newly synthesized products have also been selected for anti-malarial examination against the chloroquine drug-sensitive Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 strain. 3u is found to display excellent anti-malarial activity with an IC50 value of 33 nM.

Graphical abstract: Photo-organocatalytic synthesis of acetals from aldehydes

Abstract

A mild and green photo-organocatalytic protocol for the highly efficient acetalization of aldehydes has been developed. Utilizing thioxanthenone as the photocatalyst and inexpensive household lamps as the light source, a variety of aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes have been converted into acyclic and cyclic acetals in high yields. The reaction mechanism was extensively studied

Abstract Image

An advanced process for large scale (500 g) preparation of a (3Z,5Z)-2,7-dihydro-1H-azepine-derived chiral tridentate ligand (Hamari ligand), widely used for asymmetric synthesis of tailor-made α-amino acids via the corresponding glycine Schiff base Ni(II) complex, is disclosed. The process includes amidation, bis-alkylation, and precipitation/purification of the target compound by TFA as a counterion.
