Pandara Market

New Delhi


This small, but enduring food market, made up of a dozen-or-so restaurants and ice-cream shops, set around a quiet square, is the go-to place for excellent Mughlai and Punjabi food. Prices and standards are high. For quality food, try Gulati, Havemore, Pindi or Chicken Inn. For traditional sweets and ice cream, try Krishna di Kulfi.
