Khajuraho belongs to the Bundelkhand region in Chhatarpur district in Madhya Pradesh. Bundelkhand is a district wherein a part of it lies in Madhya Pradesh and the other in Uttar Pradesh. Thus, migrants from neighbouring states brought their cuisines with them and so those cuisines got mingled with the local cuisine in the last few years. Thus even though the city of Khajuraho has emerged as a tourist destination, it is also home to some of the well preserved, local and best kept culinary secrets.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>The Hindu Rajput kings had ruled over during a large existence in Khajuraho, so the food during this era was more of a vegetarian affaire.<\/p>\n
