The Indian stalwart, Virat Kohli is used to maintaining a strict diet currently in order to keep up his fitness standards, but lately, he has fondly reminisced about his favorite Chinese dishes that he used to have during his younger days which were manchow soup and fried rice and he also acknowledged that he has never tasted any Chinese dish like that ever again.
Furthermore, Virat Kohli added that he used to like visiting a Chinese food outlet named ‘Chuk Chuk Mail’. He recalled his early days of being a foodie during a recent interaction with popular chef Vikas Khanna.

In today’s day and age, not only does Virat Kohli refrain from having Chinese food, but has also stopped having non-vegetarian having turned vegetarian a few years ago when he had reached the pinnacle of his cricketing career.

Nonetheless, the Indian stalwart during an interaction with sports broadcaster Gaurav Kapur on his talk show ‘Breakfast With Champions’ almost 5 years ago mentioned that he does not mind having a cheat meal once in a while which happens to be Chole Bhature. During that show, Virat Kohli had told Kapur that he loves visiting Ram’s Chole Bhature in Rajouri Garden.
Meanwhile, the batting icon is currently in Bangladesh plying his trade for India in the ongoing first Test match in Chattogram. He failed in the first innings as he walked back to the pavilion scoring a painstaking run off five deliveries. Kohli did not look in great touch during his short stay at the crease before eventually being trapped in front of the wicket by Taijul Islam on a wonderful delivery.
