Markets peppered with curb-side booths doling out sumptuous morsels of deliciousness have sprouted across the capital.

Here are some of the most delectable street-food pleasures to be found in the capital.

Bombay Bhel Puri

For decades, residents of South Delhi have flocked to the modest kiosk known as Bombay Bhel Puri in Sundar Nagar Market, and for good cause.Bhajan Lal’s food stand on Mathura Road, just south of Pragati Maidan and Purana Qila, has brought Mumbai’s favourite street delicacies – bhel puri and sev puri in addition to two magnificent versions of spiced noodle salad – to the nation’s capital, receiving plenty of praise from picky Punjabi palates. These crunchy delights are a light-on-the-stomach, anytime treat and Delhiites are often spotted making a beeline for Bombay Bhel Puri late at night as an extra pick-me-up after dinner. Further, they offer jhal muri (puffed rice) and batata puri (bhel and sev noodles doused in date chutney), the owners’ ode to Kolkata.

Desi Burger at Gupta Burger Center

We’re not talking about McDonald’s here; we’re talking about the local burgers that can be found on every street corner in Delhi. Before fast food restaurants created their own versions of Aloo Tikkis and veggie patties, Delhi bakers and vendors had already created Indian-inspired burgers. 

This meal is not in the same league as the would-be Vada Pavs of Delhi. Gupta Burger Center has carved out a special place for itself among Delhi’s profusion of notable cuisine products. This delectable snack, which features crunchy Aloo Tikki filled in a crispy deep-fried bun and topped with coleslaw and other condiments, should be enjoyed by everyone, local or visitor, at least once.

Location – E-3/45, Krishna Nagar, Delhi.

Meaty delights at Qureshi Kabab Corner

Qureshi’s (E-27, Main Market, South Extension II) is a popular carnivore hangout that sees a lot of traffic in the evenings as commuters stop in for a post-work snack. The diverse chicken grills are a favorite starter, with mutton rogan josh or korma as a satisfying main meal. The chutney that comes with it is legendary, with its rich flavor complementing Qureshi’s aromatic kababs perfectly. They’re open from 10.30 a.m. to 11 p.m. every day.

Golgappas

Semolina or wheat flour are used to make these crispy balls. The Delhi Gol Gappas are stuffed with a spicy mixture of cooked potato cubes, chickpeas, and coriander, as well as some sweet chutney, and then dipped in cold tangy flavoured water before being served.

Every Gol Gappa is made to order and presented to you by the person who is creating it as you eat it; even the manner the Gol Gappa is placed in your bowl is timed to ensure that you finish the crispy tasty ball in your mouth. What’s the best part? You don’t understand how many you’ve consumed until the Gol Gappa waala comes to a halt and informs you! Gol Gappas are tiny and flavorful, and you won’t be able to get enough of them.
