Living in Delhi has its own perks. Apart from being the hub of political action, the national capital is also the hub of eateries that offer food that is finger-licking good! On one hand, the city has hotels and restaurants that are known for their decadence and opulence, on the other hand, it has food joints that have been serving delicious food at an affordable price for over a century. The beauty of this city is that it never disappoints anybody and it has something for everyone.
So, here is a list of 21 restaurants for those who are looking for pocket-friendly places to eat during the month end:
