People’s Of Delhi:

Love their food and Delhi offers a big list of restaurants and hotels to choose from. From the by lanes of old Delhi to swanky localities of New Delhi, you would find eateries and restaurants suiting all pockets. However, if you ask a resident of Delhi about the best place to have a taste of Delhi, he would undoubtedly point to Old Delhi where every food lover in Delhi has a favorite food destination.
With the influence of western culture in Delhi, International brands like McDonalds, Wimpy’s, Pizza Huts, TGIF and Pizza Express have found their place in Delhi. Residents of Delhi love to hang around these places with their friends and mates as these brands have chains all across the city. Apart from the small restaurants and eateries, there are elegant hotels and restaurants in the city filled with world class ambience. Five star hotels in Delhi have restaurants and bars serving quality food of all taste and types.
The vast buffets of these hotels are worth the splurge, their coffee shops are surprisingly affordable. Most of these restaurants regularly demonstrate expert cooking with themed food festivals. Restaurants in Connaught Place and Central Delhi Café 100 , B-Block, Connaught Place. Ice creams galore, plus pizzas, burgers and fries to take away or eat in (standing). Long lunchtime queues; buy a meal ticket before you reach the counter.

Don't Pass Me By , 79 Scindia House. Friendly, inexpensive and tasty veg and non-veg Chinese restaurant just off Janpath, popular with travellers staying nearby. Go early for full-on breakfasts. They also run a reliable travel service. Gaylord, near Connaught place, Originally Delhi's top nightclub, now limited to serving standard but expensive Indian dishes in plush surroundings lit by glittering chandeliers.

Host , F-Block. Air-con relief from the Indian heat, and a good place to sit with a beer, silver-service tea, or strong filter coffee. The standard multi-cuisine, however, is unexciting and meals are overpriced. Kovil , 2 E-Block, Connaught Place. Fresh, no-smoking restaurant and takeaway serving exclusively south Indian veg dishes, with great dosas , and delicious full thalis (around Rs150) at lunch-time.

Kwality , Regal Building, Sansad Marg. High standards of service and hygiene, with good but unspectacular international cuisine; renowned for its channa batura , a particular speciality of Delhi. National , opposite L-Block, Connaught Place. The best of a bunch of inexpensive sit-down restaurants, with great fiery curries, and an endless supply of chapatis.
