Hi this is the comment regarding KARIM’s where the degchis displayed show 2 inches of oil on top. Maybe if one were to have the food served at KARIM’S one may put on extra calories. There are ways to work it out or stay like KUNAL VIJAKAR, but it must be stated that AFTER HAVING THE FOOD AT KARIM’S NOT FOR ONCE HAVE I FELT QUEASY. IT IS THE CONDIMENTS THAT TAKE AWAY THAT QUEASINESS, EVEN THOUGH IT APPEARS OILY/GREASY. So have no such fears, enjoy the food and seize the day!!

The raan, the raan. I used to pick up one up from Nizamuddin on my way to the airport, and eat it with the wife back in Cal.

MMMM. For a foodie, a night at Karim’s is a must. There are two more branches, one at Hazrat Nizammudin and one at East of Kailash (more of a takeaway). But nothing compared to the experience of the Jama masjid ambience.

I remember one sumptuous meal I had – three hours of eating meat, sheermal, the works. And topping up with a paan down the corner.

Remember to have lots of yoghurt / curds when you are eating this kind of food.

well … look who’s getting hooked onto Delhi’s offerings when it comes to food. Despite the effort to get to the place, I myself visit the place once in a while.

Also, being a foodie myself, I’d like to recommend ‘chole bathure’ from this place called ‘Ramesh Namkin Bhandar’. It’s in west Delhi. They are amazing, and I am salivating at the thought, just as I type this

Your posts are GREAT!! After being an ex-pat here in Delhi for 3 years I know I couldn’t capture it all as well as you have. But please do the needful and try the Karims in Nizzamudin as well.

Great post. Your photos really set the scene. I lived in Bangalore for a year and experienced some incredible food, but I never found a place like this. I wish this post had been available on one of my trips to Delhi. I’d have been sure not to miss it!

Do you ever get sick eating at these local joints? They don’t look very clean.
