The best Food you can find in The Lalit Hotel In khajuraho but some expensive.other is siddharth restaurent serves the good food with quantity (veg & non veg) & Raja Cafe is not good for quantity.
Raneh waterfall, temples, light & sound show at temple, folk dance is good for visit which is best in Khajuraho.
No good Place for shopping but you can buy the 'Baster Art' ...morethis is the only good thing to buy.

Siddhartha is the best best. For Indian veg thali, there is an option at Badri Aggarwal restaurant (right side of Hotel Harmony) on Jain mandir road. Jageshwar Srivas is the person to look for advice on options (He can tweak menu for you) in that restaurant. Raneh and Pandav waterfalls recommended. Temples, light and sound program real nice. So are the folk dances. Shopping is expensive.
