01

Start with kachori-sabzi

A classic morning pairing, often followed by jalebi. Choose busy vendors cooking fresh food and ask about spice levels and ingredients.

02

An afternoon of small tastes

Try tamatar chaat or a fresh lassi from a clean, well-frequented shop. Use sealed drinking water and check whether ice is made from safe water.

03

Eat thoughtfully

Tell vendors about allergies and dietary needs. Avoid waste, pay agreed prices and bring curiosity rather than a checklist. Seasonal specialties vary throughout the year. Consider booking a guided heritage and food walk if you are unsure where to begin.
