Chandni Chowk



Chandni Chowk, often called the food capital of India, is famous
for its street food. The variety consists of snacksespecially chaat.
If you wish to enjoy it, shed your high-brow attitude to soak in the flavours and delicacies. Come on, everybody... Yes, it's a kind of celebration in congregation. Chandni Chowk resembles a fair everyday. The streets are lined with halwais (sweet-sellers), namkeenwallahs(sellers of savouries) and paranthewallahs
(sellers of rich, flaky breads soaked in ghee).


The real flavour of the Delhi street food lies in the chaat. The original chaat is a mixture of potato piecescrispy fried breadDahi Bhalla,gram and tangy-salty spices. The mixture is garnished with sour home-made Indian chilly and saunth (dried ginger and tamarind sauce), fresh green coriander leaves and yoghurt. However, there are several other popular variants now, including the one with an Aloo Tikki.

Let us explore a few of the chaat shops.
     Shree Balaji Chaat Bhandar 
     1462, Chandni Chowk; Noon to 10pm 
     The best and most popular chaatwallah in Chandni Chowk. We particularly recommend             Papdi Chaat with its liberal inclusion of Kachaalu ChutneyKhasta Papdis and saunth. 

     Bishan Swaroop 
     1421, Chandni Chowk; 10am to 10pm 
     One of those gems tucked away in the chaotic by-lanes of Chandni Chowk which keep alive the magic of another time, another taste.Since 1923, this tiny little stall has dished out just three items: awesome Aloo Chaat, fabulous Aloo ke Kulle and mouth-watering Fruit Chaat.

Delhi's street food has more to it than just Chandni Chowk . Till then relish what you get :)
