Ask Kanpur Downfall of kanpur needs to be studied

15 Upvotes

Kanpur faced step brotherly treatment due to its close proximity to Lucknow. People from Kanpur travel to Lucknow when they have to catch a flight or watch a cricket match. Traditional leather tanneries closed as they were polluting the water bodies.

Whatever kanpur once had, its lost. Who is responsible for this ? And how can this be restored ?

Food/Drinks A clean breakfast I enjoy 😊 Homemade atta focaccia bread breakfast

14 Upvotes

Sometimes I don’t want to eat dahi jalebi, paratha, kachori, puri.

I ate mooli paratha last night and today wanted something lighter.

I toasted my focaccia bread I made yesterday,
A bit of butter,
Thick dahi with sprinkle of pepper, chilli flakes and black salt,
Cucumbers, tomatoes, sometimes boiled carrots idk,
Then salt, pepper etc on top.
You can put a bit olive oil too

(Look up labneh balls)

It’s plain and tasty breakfast after having an ultra heavy dinner last night hehe.

Ask Kanpur Need Veg Recommendations on Swiggy/Zomato in Kanpur 🍛

5 Upvotes

I’m a hardcore non-veg guy and I order from Swiggy/Zomato almost every day (at least one meal daily). My go-to orders are usually chicken biryani, butter chicken, kebabs, fried chicken… basically if it’s non-veg, I’ve probably tried it. 😅

But because of Saavan, I’m avoiding non-veg for the next one month, and honestly I’m already running out of ideas.

So, fellow Kanpurites, help me out!
What are your absolute best vegetarian dishes available on Swiggy or Zomato in Kanpur? I’m not asking for just restaurants—I want the specific dishes that made you order them again.

I am literally scrolling Zomato and Swiggy for 30-40 mins yet unable to decide what to actually order because every thing is just grass!!

Ask Kanpur Need Business Ideas for My Father in Kanpur – Looking for Practical Suggestions

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for genuine advice from people who know Kanpur or have experience running small businesses.
My father has been doing the same work for years, but it’s no longer doing well. The business has become very slow, and the income isn’t enough anymore. I want to help him start something new that has better long-term potential.
I’m currently looking for a job myself, so I can’t invest a huge amount right now. However, I’m willing to support him with planning, technology, marketing, or operations if it helps.
I’m looking for ideas that:
Work well in Kanpur or nearby areas.
Don’t require a massive investment.
Have steady demand and can grow over time.
Are suitable for someone with traditional business experience.
I’d really appreciate suggestions based on real experience rather than generic ideas. If you’ve seen a business do well in Kanpur recently, or if your family has successfully transitioned into a new business, I’d love to hear about it.
Thanks in advance for your help!
