The Indian culinary repertoire reflects the cultural diversity of the country. The term “Indian food” denotes a mélange of flavours from different parts of the country and showcases centuries of cultural exchange with the far corners of the world. The Indian cuisine offers a rich diverse palette, with much regional variation.

In New Delhi, the capital of India, every street corner and market beckon with the promise of culinary delight. As a melting pot of cultures, Delhi's food scene is a vibrant mosaic, reflecting the rich tapestry of its history, traditions, and diverse communities.

Delhi's streets are adorned with stalls offering a variety of refreshing beverages. In addition to branded carbonated drinks, authentic Delhi-style beverages abound. Top picks include flavored lassi, lemon soda (banta), jaljeera, wood apple sherbet (bel ka sharbat), and flavored buttermilk.
