The olden streets of Shahjehanabad’have many a secret; and one of them is their offerings of delicious fare for brunch sold from unassuming little shops and hole-in-the wall outlets; and you never know, you may chance upon another dish, still a secret known only to the local community. Actually that’s how it all started out…when Dilliwallahs from other parts of the city discovered Old Delhi’s obsession with food….And then the tourists found them…And the rest they say is history!
