Old Delhi: Guided Food Tour Experience with Local Expert. Follow the guide\u2019s instructions regarding hygiene and local etiquette.
As you walk through the narrow lanes and bustling markets of Old Delhi, you’ll encounter a myriad of sights, sounds, and smells. Each corner reveals a new culinary delight – from sizzling kebabs and fragrant biryanis to crispy jalebis and creamy kulfi (traditional Indian ice cream).
Throughout the tour, you’ll have the opportunity to sample a wide array of street foods. Some of the must-try dishes often include:
Parathas: Stuffed flatbreads served with pickles and chutneys.
Chaat: Tangy and spicy street snacks like golgappa (pani puri), papdi chaat, and dahi puri.
Kebabs: Skewers of marinated meat or vegetables cooked to perfection in tandoors or on charcoal grills.
Biryani: Fragrant rice cooked with succulent pieces of meat or vegetables, often flavored with aromatic spices.
Sweets: Indulge in desserts like rabri falooda, gajar halwa, and of course, the famous jalebis.
