Known for its spiritual aura and scenic beauty, Rishikesh also boasts a vibrant culinary scene that caters to diverse tastes. Among the myriad offerings, one standout is the renowned Veer Ji Malai Chaap, celebrated for its innovative approach to vegetarian cuisine. Located in Tapovan, Rishikesh (Uttarakhand), Veer Ji Malai Chaap has carved a niche for itself with its delectable range of chaap, a dish that mimics the taste and texture of non-vegetarian fare but is entirely vegetarian. Vishal Gupta, the owner, said that their chaap varieties were crafted from ingredients like soya, skillfully prepared to replicate the flavours traditionally associated with meat, without using any refined flour.

People often cannot believe that their chaap is vegetarian after tasting it, Gupta remarked, adding that their aim was to showcase that vegetarian dishes can be just as delicious and nutritious as their non-vegetarian counterparts.

Veer Ji Malai Chaap offers an extensive menu that includes Veg Chicken Burger, Veg Mutton Burger, Veg Chicken Biryani, Veg Mutton Biryani, and more, available daily from 2:30 pm to 3 pm. Each dish promises not just a meal, but an experience that challenges perceptions and delights the palate.

Visitors to Rishikesh seeking a culinary adventure are encouraged to explore Veer Ji Malai Chaap, where vegetarianism meets gastronomic innovation in every bite.
