The rich aroma of rice cakes, especially chitai pitha and bhapa pitha, tells you winter has set in. But unlike in the villages, where winter cakes are made at home in a gesture of camaraderie, in cities they are made in roadside stalls. Pagla Pitha Ghar is one such stall in the city's Green Road where these cakes are offered with 35 different kinds of chutneys and spicy mashed items. Photo: Anisur Rahman
