Indian food is not one cuisine but dozens, and the surest way to understand a state is to eat what it is proudest of. The Food Atlas gathers 213 signature dishes and drinks — thalis and street snacks, festival sweets and slow-cooked classics — grouped below by the state whose table they belong to. Every dish opens its own page: what it is, the story behind it, its key ingredients, and what else to order while you are there. Travelling soon? Build one signature meal into every stop; it is the cheapest souvenir and the one you will remember longest.
