North Indian food has long been our comfort food. However much we South Delhi socialites go out for modern Indian cuisine or French innovations, but at the end of the day, a good old dal makhni and naans are what we crave for. In the north Indian food, one of our favourite food is Dhaaba Food. Spicy yet filling, this is what people drive to Murthal for.
But going out for Dhaaba styled North Indian food also does become a chore. With traffic snarls becoming an everyday story, the happiness of having a belly full of food quickly evaporates with all the honking around in the traffic. This is where foodpanda comes to your rescue. Tired or just bored to get out of bed, switch on the foodpanda app which lists down the restaurants available in your region. Click on their menu and make your selections. Online payment with an assured delivery time is what made us use them. In mood for some Dhaba food, we chose a couple of things from the new Shirazine menu of The Leaping Caravan in Saket.
The most essential part of delivery is the delivery timing and the correctness of order. Foodpanda again aces these two requirements. The food is delivered within the time quoted and the order in bang on
The Vegetarian Menu consists of delicious options such as Karnal ke Paneer Kofte, a paneer dish so soft that it melts the moment it touches the palate. The gravy is moderately rich but it’s the retention to salty taste that makes this one a winner as most koftas tend to take on a sweeter note. The warm, earthy taste of the daal is a perfect antecedent to the dishes without excess of butter killing of the beauty of the pulses.
We absolutely fall in love with the non vegetarian dishes. The Beeji Ka Chicken Bharta is an old recipe that is similar to Chicken Tikka Masala, the tikkas are shredded to bharta form. Also on the plate is the lip smacking RawalPindi Meat Curry, a typical old school across the border recipe where slow cooking and frying of spices are more common than the use of tandoor.
We polish all of these with some soft melt in your mouth Onion Paranthas and Green Chili Naans.
