Top 20 delicious Gujarati Dishes that you must try when you visit Gujarat

Gujarati diaspora can be found in 129 of 190 countries listed as sovereign nations by the United Nations. Isn't this fabulous! With them, they not only carried their culture and tradition, but also their typical food worldwide. The only thing that comes to my mind is the amount of food gujju's carry with them when they travel. The sheer amount and variety of food and efficacy with which it's served is truly amazing.
