What Kanchan Shree is
A budget-friendly local favourite for lassi, kulfi and Rajasthani snacks - in practice an ice-cream and lassi parlour rather than a full restaurant. It is a pure-veg house. Most orders land around ₹80–300.
🥘 The order to make
The order is the makhaniya lassi - saffron and dry fruit over thick curd - or the rajwadi version. Plain lassi starts around ₹30, ice cream around ₹15.
There is exactly one Gubagub on the menu, the shop's own invention, and the homemade kulfi is what locals queue for. Burgers, chowmein and pav bhaji exist too, but the lassi counter is the point.
🕒 When to come
The posted hours run 8:00 AM to 11:00 PM - it stays open into the evening, which is when Jaisalmer's heat finally relents.
🧭 Finding it
Kanchan Shree is on Gadisar Road, about a 10-minute walk from the fort's main gate - Jaisalmer, Rajasthan.
✅ The short version
A locals' stop more than a tourist café, and the better for it.
