  1. 1.Sita Ram Diwan Chand, Paharganj

    83 people recommend, 49 warn against it

    Sita Ram Diwan Chand in Paharganj is a famous self-service chole bhature spot that many people still rate among Delhi's best, praising the hot, fluffy bhature with chole, pickle and green chillies. However, it is genuinely divisive: a large number of commenters warn that it is overhyped and has declined, with several complaining that the bhature are pre-made in bulk and reheated on a tawa rather than fried fresh. One diner advises going early since they sell out within hours.
