Greed is a bottomless pitcher, how hard we try to fill it,it will remain empty. Greed is
never satiated, and same applies in case of savoring food delights. Give us a
spicy tangy one, we will ask for bland and when provided that we demand for
something sweet. Main question is how to get everything good at one place. Chandni
chowk is literally bylanes of chatori gali, here average food is better than available
in other markets.
Be it golgappas,dahi bhalla,rabri falooda , jalebi or chole kulche and even daulat ram ki chat. Special
food tours are also arranged in this area having stoppage at most of the famous
shops. In college time, we used to have our own food walk in the name of
getting books for next semester (Nayi Sarak).Chole Kulche at Nayi Sarak is one
low fat option available here. Try Lotan ke chole kulche, which are considered
the best. Moving on you will find a crowd outside a shop on the main
road,having adjacent street going straight to Chandni chowk metro station .That
shop is known as Natraj which serves the best creamy dahi bhalla with special black
masala sprinkled on top of it in good amount.The curd is creamy,evenly thick textured
and sweet.It also serves tasty aloo tikki too,which is fried crisp in desi
ghee.At first look,it looks like only take away counter, but only few know that
there is upstairs sitting place too, where you can have all the same delicacies
in peace and give some rest to your legs.
Golgappas is one thing for which I didn’t find a specific
shop/street vendor which sells awesome ones.Though one in the dingy bylanes of
khari bawli, sells good ones. If any one
knows a specific awesome gol gappa vendor,do let me know.Here ,one can find a
variety of chat which is not much available at other places. It is daulat ram
ki chat ,a wiped froth sprinkled with jaggery .It is worth a try and vendors can be find in the corridors of main road.Another
sweet dish,favourite of many is available here,which is jalebi.Shop which is
famous for it has its name on it only:Jalebi wala at Dariba kalan.Jalebi here
are quite thick, soft,fried in desi ghee and filled with sweetness. As soon as
you put it in mouth, the sweet liquid oozes out.Another option for people
having sweet tooth is rabri falooda at Gyani, Fatehpuri. It requires a good
amount of walk to the end of the road to relish rabri falooda at gyan. Here you
will find queues at every food joint. But a good experience to roam around and
keep having different flavors n different treats.
