Mahaprasad of the Jagannath Temple
The sacred temple food of Puri — and where to try it
No Puri pilgrimage is complete without the Mahaprasad — the revered food offered to Lord Jagannath and shared among devotees.
What it is
A fully pure-veg feast cooked daily in earthen pots over wood fire inside the temple's Rosaghara (one of the world's largest kitchens), then offered to the deities. It is considered Abadha — utterly sacred.
Where to try it
At Ananda Bazaar, the vast market inside the Jagannath Temple complex, where Mahaprasad is sold to visitors.
