Delhi's street food scene is legendary. From the narrow lanes of Old Delhi to the bustling markets of South Delhi, here's your definitive guide to eating like a local.
Chandni Chowk - The Epicenter
No street food guide starts anywhere else. Paranthe Wali Gali has been serving stuffed parathas since the 1870s. Try the rabri paratha for something sweet, or the mixed pickle paratha for a flavor explosion.
Laxmi Nagar - Chaat Paradise
The evening chaat stalls near Laxmi Nagar metro are where locals go. Golgappe (pani puri) with four different waters, aloo tikki with chutneys, and dahi bhalla that melts in your mouth.
Connaught Place - The Classic Circuit
Bengali Market's natraj dahi bhalle and Wenger's pastries. Janpath's momos. The paranthe at Moolchand. CP has something for every craving.
Sarojini Nagar - Budget Bites
After shopping in the famous market, refuel at the food stalls. Spring rolls, chole bhature, and the best fresh lime soda in Delhi.
