A narrow lane in the heart of Old Delhi lined with shops that have been frying stuffed parathas since the 1870s, making it one of the most historically significant food streets in India. The parathas come stuffed with everything from potato and paneer to more unusual fillings like rabri and dry fruits, served with pickles and curd. The experience is as much about the atmosphere and history as the food itself. It is crowded, oily, and chaotic — which is entirely the point.
