Amdavadis love Punjabi cuisine; long lines can be seen outside Punjabi restaurants, especially on weekends in Ahmedabad

Punjabis have a larger than life image and their culture, music, foods and their dances are all celebrated and liked across the country. In Gujarat too there is a lot of love for all things Punjabi whether it is the food or the Bhangra, Punjabi songs or even their penchant for doing things on a big scale. Gujaratis have their famous garbas where the whole community dances for 9 days of Navratri and Punjabis also have their bhagra and gidda dances in which also the whole community participates. 

As far as food is concerned, the 2 cuisines - Gujarati and Punjabi are very different but still, there is a lot of love for Punjabi food here in Ahmedabad so whether it is Shahi Paneer or Stuffed Paranthe, Chole or Pulao the vegetarian Gujarati loves vegetarian Punjabi fare. Also, Punjabi non-vegetarian food like Butter Chicken and Chicken Tikka are loved by most non-vegetarians here.
