Hemanshu Kumar,
I’m so glad I came across your site. I did see the show with Andrew and would love to check out Delhi on an extended stay. Unfortunately I’ll only be in the city for about 7 hrs on a layover. But I plan on using all my time to explore and try different foods. I have absolutely no idea which area to visit for that short amount of time but would love to have a tip on maybe where to grab dinner and a busy market/area to soak up the vibe. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated!

Cheers!!!
-Torsten

Hira Lal or even Jugal Kishore used to be good, but their quality has been going down over past 7-8 years…..if you want to try the really good stuff, try the guy who sits with his Bamboo tokra on the corner of Sita Ram Bazar, just besides Ashok Chat Corner…….his spices are really good and ask him to use his special peela masala for the really tangy chat…..problem with Hira lal or jugal kishore is that they use substandard black masala which is mostly over roasted jeera and coriander…..and leaves a bitter after taste……real chat should tickle the palate and should leave it yearning for more……one can also try the chat at the rehdiwala outside the Krishna Dry Cleaners in Darya Ganj market…..from 6:00 pm to 11:00 pm….his is really good as well.

Thanks for responding to Vinay, Varun. Yes, in Delhi it's called Daulat ki Chaat. I've written about it briefly here. And at least in my experience, it's easier to look for the vendors in Kinari Bazaar and Dariba Kalan than in Chawri Bazaar.

That dish was Makhan Malai, also called Nimish or Daulat ki chaat, In delhi you can get it in the Chawri Bazaar road, where u can see 2-3 vendors till afternoon during winters only.

Andrew’s show in Delhi had a dish that was made out of milk, which he likened to a mikk souffle (if i am not wrong).
What was that dish and where do u get it?

Thanks “Sicko”, but they already sent me a DVD of the show. Before they did that, I was also able to download it from the iTunes Store.
