Healthy Cafe Opens in AE Block, Featuring Natural Ingredients

A new cafe called Calcutta Confecti opened in AE Block, focusing on healthy food.

The owner, Propa Chakravartty, started the cafe after her mother, who had diabetes, passed away.

The cafe uses oats instead of white flour, jaggery instead of sugar, and olive oil instead of seed oils.

They offer items like a Chicken Oats Burger with 40g of protein, doughnuts baked in olive oil, and a Korean Garlic Bun with homemade cream cheese.

The cafe also caters to vegetarians.

The goal is to make tasty food using healthy alternatives to standard ingredients.

The cafe has a relaxed atmosphere, and is also pet-friendly.
