Traveling to a country is incomplete without interacting with locals and making some new friends on the journey. From an accommodating heart to an ever smiling face, we bet Indians are the best when it comes to welcoming travelers with open arms.

Food’s you must try 

"Every country, from around the globe, contains a fusion of food culture that is relative. So we all have something to share." 

Sampling local dishes is an important part of experiencing and even understanding a new culture. Food is often a tradition, an identity, and a connection to a community. Indian food has become increasingly popular around the world, but nothing quite compares to authentic food and spices across the subcontinent. 

Chaats

The most popular street food in India, Chaat is a savory snack, typically served as a hors d'oeuvre at roadside tracks from stalls or food carts. With origins from the state of Uttar Pradesh, chaat has become immensely popular in the rest of India. 

Aloo Chaat  (Fried potato crisps with chaat masala and chutney)

Dahi Papdi Chaat  (Yogurt, fried patty called papdi with boiled potato and sprouts and chutney)

Aloo Tikki  (Friend potato patty with spices and chutneys)

Gol Guppa/Pani Puri  (Fried hollow round crisps filled with tangy flavored water and boiled potatoes and chutney)

Samosa

Samosas are a popular entrée, appetizer, or snack. They are fried or baked with a savory filling, such as spiced potatoes, onions, peas, or lentils. Indian samosas are usually vegetarian and often accompanied by mint chutney. 

Chole Bhature

A popular dish for breakfast, it is a combination of chick peas in a spicy gravy with fried bread. Our favorite Delhi spot for Chole Bhature is Chacha di Hatti in Kamla Nagar. Lines start early and there are only two tables without chairs, so be prepared to eat standing up (like a local) or take it elsewhere to enjoy.

Rogan Josh

Rogan Josh is an aromatic lamb or goat meat dish from the Kashmir region of India. It is a spicy hot curry usually eaten with naan or rice. 

Dal Makhani

Dal makhani is a popular dish from the Punjab region of the Indian subcontinent. It’s primary ingredients are whole black lentil, red kidney beans, butter, and cream.

Thali is more than a meal; it is an experience. A selection of various veg or non-veg dishes are served on a platter, accompanied by rice and roti. The idea behind a Thali is to offer six different flavors of sweet, salt, bitter, sour, astringent, and spicy on one single plate. Many local spots offer a thali lunch for less than $2/person. 

Amritsari Kulcha

Amritsari kulcha is a traditional dish from the Punjab region. Its naan bread stuffed with spicy potato filling and very popular for breakfast.
