Bollywood ‘Baadshah’ Shah Rukh Khan was spotted in Jaipur, Rajasthan promoting his upcoming film, Jab Harry met Sejal this weekend. While the other B-Town stars where busy partying at IIFA in New York, Shah Rukh chose to refresh his taste buds by trying some Rajasthani cuisine for the first time in his life.

I had just heard of ‘dal baati’. It’s fantastic and really nice. I wonder how people finish this food it’s really filling and very tasty. For me it’s a 1st-time experience, now I will come here once in three months at least.

King Khan was welcomed traditionally with a tikka, a pagadi and a Rajputana sword which made him look no less than a Maharaja.

OMG! so much food, where should I start from?
