A
Lassiwala
This milky institution is a simple little place that whips up fabulous, creamy lassis (yoghurt and filtered iced-water drink) served in clay cups. Will the real Lassiwala please stand up? It’s the one that says ‘Shop 312’, directly next to the alleyway; imitators spread to the right as you face it.

Handi Restaurant
This old favourite is opposite the main post office, at the back of Maya Mansions, and offers scrumptious barbecue dishes and Mughlai cuisine in a village atmosphere. In the evenings a deliciously tempting smoky kebab stall sets up at the entrance to the restaurant.

C
Mohan
This popular chow pit is grubby on the outside, but prepares freshly cooked food on the inside. The name is in Hindi and it’s on the corner of the street.

D
Ganesh Restaurant
This pocket-sized outdoor restaurant is in a fantastic location on the old city wall. There’s not much English spoken, but if you’re looking for a local eatery with fresh tasty food you’ll love it. It’s near New Gate, with a narrow, hidden stairway between two tailors – you’ll no doubt be helped to find the stairs.

Niro’s
Niro’s has been on duty for more than 50 years, and still pumps out classic Indian fare and piped muzak. Under a mirrored roof, masses tuck into the extensive range of veg and nonveg dishes. The lal maans (mutton in spicy red gravy), and began bharta (aubergine) were delicious.

Spice Court
This relaxed clubhouse restaurant, with a blue tiled roof and a splendid evening courtyard, is an excellent place to escape the hum of the city (but not the hum of Hindi pop). The food is fresh, the kitchen spotless, and the kebab platter is serious business.

Sun-N-Moon
This neohippy haunt attracts all kinds for its Italian menu and friendly staff. The courtyard is home to a bodhi tree, a shrine and hungry tortoises. Breakfast includes lassis and masala chai, while for the homesick there are hash browns.

Restaurant Pawaana
Restaurant Pawaana is a timely new venture hidden behind high walls and set around a spotlit courtyard. The traditional Rajasthani food is excellent, and the bustling street noise makes a welcome soundtrack.

Gayatri's
This pleasant, clean multicuisine restaurant whips up superb curries in healthy portions. The Kashmiri dam aloo (a traditional Kashmiri dish made with potatoes and spices) is a winner.

A short stroll south of Evergreen Guesthouse, this locals' place does a roaring trade in Rajasthani thalis, and a good side business in South Indian dishes.
