SPICE MARKET TRIP
Embark on an unforgettable journey through the vibrant and chaotic lanes of Old Delhi, home to the largest and most iconic spice market in North India. This immersive experience will transport you into the very soul of Delhi’s rich culinary culture, where the air is thick with the heady aroma of spices, and the streets pulse with energy and life.
As we navigate the narrow, bustling lanes, I’ll guide you through the intricate world of spices, showing you how to choose the freshest and most aromatic varieties, and introducing you to traditional utensils that are essential to Indian cooking. We’ll make a stop at a famous "chai walla" for a refreshing cup of masala chai, soaking in the sights and sounds of this historic marketplace.
For the truly adventurous, we’ll head to the legendary Paranthe Wali Gali, a lane famous for its delectable stuffed parathas. You can savour these street delicacies right in the heart of Old Delhi, or, if you prefer a quieter setting, we’ll head back to my home where you can enjoy these parathas in a more relaxed, intimate atmosphere.
This spice market trip is not just about shopping—it's a sensory adventure through one of India’s most fascinating culinary hubs. With its vibrant atmosphere, rich history, and mouthwatering food, this experience will stay with you long after you leave Delhi.
Food as a prayer.
Food as a gift.
Food for gratitude.
