The 38 Best Restaurants in New Delhi, India | Eater
"Price Range: $$ A couple of years ago, Rude Chef opened to instant popularity in Delhi’s youthful, restaurant-filled neighborhood of Humayunpur. It’s run by a small, skilled team led by a talented, nonchalant chef who worked in several upscale kitchens across the city before he started his own. The restaurant is casual, and has nicely plated but unpretentious food, including global hits like fried calamari, fish tacos, and thai curries. Get the rice wine, a fermented beverage drunk across India’s Northeastern states and Indigenous communities, served here luxuriously pink in trademark goblets. Starters, as is the general rule in Delhi restaurants, are better than mains, especially the som tam salad, the pulled buffalo meat salad, and the birria wraps filled with tender, spiced meat and ordered in succession by every table in the restaurant. Know before you go: There is almost no vegetarian food here, save one menu listing of steamed edamame." - Sharanya Deepak
