VegDelhi Chole Bhature
The definitive Delhi breakfast—overnight soaked chickpeas in black tea-spiced gravy with crispy deep-fried bhatura.
Delhi is where every Indian cuisine comes to be tested and perfected. From the lanes of Chandni Chowk to the tandoors of Lajpat Nagar, Delhi's food is the nation's food.
Delhi's seven historical cities have each added layers to its food culture. The Mughal courts birthed Butter Chicken, the Sikh langar democratized food, and the Partition brought Punjab's best to its streets.
Delhi's culinary mastery comes from the confluence of cultures. Paranthe Wali Gali in Chandni Chowk serves over 40 varieties of stuffed flatbreads. Karim's serves Mughal-era recipes unchanged for 100 years.
