For some tasty Mughlai food, head to Jama Masjid ad Nizamuddin where kebabs, rotis and biriyani are easily available. There are also many food vendors here so it’s a good place to visit for a cheap and tasty meal. You will find a few restaurants serving excellent mughali and frontier cuisine. The Dlhi Ka Aangan at the Hyatt Regency, the Gulati Restaurant and Pandara Market, Angeethi at Asiad Village and the Degchi at the Regal Building all serve delicious Mughlai dishes.
Chinese cuisine is served at almost every five star hotel in the city. The food is tasty but a little expensive and leaves you thirsty. The Regal Building is known for its speciality restaurants, moderate prices and great ambience. The Hauz Khaz village serves both Thai and Japanese cuisine while Tibetan food can be enjoyed near Chanakya Theatre. If you can’t find the food you fancy here then check out the numerous eateries at Connaught Place.
Much of the food cooked in this region is less spicy than that found in the southern parts as the ingredients are quite different. Food cooked in the northern parts of India use a lot of yoghurt and sugar. The curries are thick and have a spicy sweet taste to them.
The local and smaller restaurants and cafes usually serve meals on banana leaves, which is quite an experience. The more upmarket restaurants usually serve diners on brass or silverware.
