Step aside if you could'nt get into Karims

Brain Curry

For many, eating at old Delhi means just Karims, but many at times the place is too crowded especially if you are taking your family or friends. There are quite some places around which offer authentic Mughalai cuisine I you have been unlucky to get your foot in Karims. Al Jawahar is just next door to Karims. The place is roomy and has a family section, and of course, air-conditioned. The staff is quite well behaved, prompt and friendly unlike at Karims.

Roomali Roti

The menu is quite a comprehensive list of Mughalai dishes. The dishes come in substantial proportions and usually unless you are quite a glutton more than sufficient for a person. There are quite some dishes you should try. If you are adventurous, yo should try the yummy Brain curry. For the less adventurous , you have Chicken Jahangiri and Chicken Kalimirch. If you want to take a safe bet, try Chicken/Mutton stew.

If you visit the restaurant in the morning , you could try Paaya for breakfast .
