Delhi Is Getting A Night Market That’s Going To Serve Street Food With A Side Of Heritage!

Forget fairy lights and cutesy flea vibes — the real deal lies in the oldies, because as someone rightly said, “oldies are goldies,” and to revive those cherished memories and Delhi’s slightly forgotten street food culture, the city’s about to drop a bombshell packed with history, hustle, and hella good chole bhature! We promise this isn’t your average night out!

Old Is Gold & Bold | Old Delhi’s street food is clocking in for the night shift, and it’s got a brand-new address this time, right next to the historic Salimgarh Fort. The MCD is pulling out the big ladle with a curated night market, featuring the greatest hits of Chandni Chowk’s food scene. Wondering what’s on the menu at this midnight munch fest? Here we go; it's going to be pav bhaji with green chillies on the side, biryani, both veg and non-veg, legendary stuffed paranthas, chaats, kachoris loaded with aloo, and lassi thick enough to qualify as a shake. All this with a hygiene upgrade, zero knockoffs, and no random stalls to dodge. Vendors have been handpicked straight outta Purani Dilli, ensuring the vibe stays spicy. Oh, and it’s all happening in a once-ignored shortcut near the Old Iron Bridge!

Get ready to come early only to leave with insane stories and maybe a paratha in each pocket!
