Food
Bikaner being located in the desert area lacks water and fresh green vegetables, hence their food is prepared to last long and re-heating is not required. Gram Flour is used generously in their delicacies like pakodi, Gatta ki subji, kadhi, etc. Bajra and corn are used in making rotis.
Bikaner is how ever famous for Rasagullas, Ghevar, Phirni, Rabri, Raj Bhog etc.
