My dad used to eat here during his Kirori Mal days an excellent lunch of Chicken curry and rotis for Rs 2.50 .......I am not too sure how many times I have been here ( probably bimonthly for the last 25 yrs ...too many times I guess ) this little joint in CP or Connught Place has always been a favourite . Yes I would agree it can be more hygenic from its present state ....but I guess it is primarily because of the small space and the huge groups of people ....who throng it shores everyday ......for the taste of a lifetime ....... HOWEVER IT STILL IS AND WILL BE FOR MANY YEARS NUMERO UNO .... WITH ITS REPUTATION FOR SERVING THE YUMMIEST CHICKEN CURRY IN DELHI . Set up in 1930’s by the grand father of the present day owner it used to be a business run from a Thatched hutment ......till my dad’s college days.....when the present day owners decided to give it a modern look .........Situated at 2 levels you can sit upstairs and get away from the hectic activity downstairs ( that’s if you get a place to sit .....usually the wait time on weekends is 1 to 1.5 hrs )....... Mughlai in Delhi cannot be better than this ......yum
Food is delicious and extremely rich .......Only Desi Ghee is used and once you taste it there is no need for any proof .......
