 Chapatti, onions, dal, chili and water! perfect! by kokoryko At one point I got hungry, walking in Chandni Chowk,in the middle of afternoon, and I looked for a place for a quick meal. In a small “pedestrian” street, I came across a place where a cook was baking chappati outside a very little restaurant; I stepped in, was the attraction of the place for a few seconds, then sat down at a plastic table, looked at what people were eating and, by gestures explained, I wanted the same: dal, chappati, onions and chilli. The dal was wonderful fresh, probably far from “high” cuisine, but in the surroundings, it exactly fitted and was spicy as I like it, lots of strong peppered curry, and sweet lentils; a piece of chilli from time to time and if it was too hot. . . killed the fire with onion and chappati. I had a nice “fast food”, and my stomach proved “reliable” as I drank water from the jug . . . . I know, here I can tell I am lucky having no problems with “exotic” food or water; I do not know if they had bottled beverages in that restaurant. The surroundings were exotic too, as I could watch very close the cook and people walking or working on the street. Food and show in the same time!

Gali Parathe wali, or `the lane of parathas' is located in Chandni Chowk, and is very popular with the locals who would often flock to the paratha shops here for a meal. There are 3 or 4 shops in the lane, that serve a wide variety of parathas- ranging from those stuffed with potatoes to cauliflowers/ raddish/ cottage cheese, etc etc... Its a great place to stop by while strolling around exploring the lanes of Chandni Chowk and grabbing an inexpensive, yet delicious meal.
A Paratha is a flat-bread thats typical to the Indian subcontinent, and which is usually made with flour, fried, and often stuffed with vegetables etc, and served with chutneys and curry.

 "Barfi", "Rasgulla" and "Barfi" by wispofcloud Indian sweets are famous! if you have a sweet tooth, this is the place to be! Most sweets are some combination of milk and other products. Try these mouth-watering delicacies. WARNING: Some of these shops are not hygienic, so it is best to ask a local VTer for advice on where to get the best sweets. PHOTO CREDIT: J-san Leave a Comment

by j-san Anything and everything, but mainly garlic naan! I love the way there are small pieces of garlic you can see on top of the naan (naan is a delicious chewy flatbread). Have been eating lots of delicious homecooked foods, loved Radhika's potato and cumin curry! And the Southern Indian potato and coriander dish (pictured!) that Husain's cook made one morning! The food here really hits the spot! Leave a Comment Theme: Other

by j-san Fennel seeds after your meal... you will get these along with some sugar too sometimes, at all restaurants. Take a handful and chew well, they help with digestion. Leave a Comment Theme: Other
