Draupadi-ki-Rasoi in Meerut is believed to be the site of Draupadi's kitchen and is situated on the banks of the Burhganga. In the history of Mahabharata it is narrated that when Pandav brothers along with Draupadi were on exile at the Hastinapur forest, Lord Krishna came to visit them. It was said that Lord Krishna wanted to appease his hunger and asked for some food from Draupadi. Draupadi had no food at her place to offer her revered guest. She was left with one grain of rice which she offered to Lord Krishna with devotion and lot of affection. Lord Krishna was moved by this gesture and readily accepted one grain of rice. He said the food given out of love and devotion is enough to satisfy His hunger. Later Lord Krishna bestowed His blessings upon her and appeased the hunger of thousands of Duruvasa's disciples when they came to her as guests. This is the history of Draupadi-Ki-Rasoi in Meerut.
