THE CITY THAT NEVER SLEEPS
“Yeh dilli hai mere yaar
Bas ishq mohabbat pyaar”
You can eat with love but you cannot eat love. So what can u do as a delhiite out in the city looking for a quick bite if you’ve just come from a party, late job or are just hungry and there’s only the questionable dal left in the fridge from two days ago.
Well not to worry, I have the perfect solution to your predicament. Here are some places that serve up delicious food at affordable prices late into the early morning:

New Delhi Railway Station
Although you have the option of going to Comesum, there are cheaper options available if you are short on cash right outside the station’s paharganj gate. Not as family friendly or hygienic, this is a students-hungry-lowonmoney kind of place.

1440, Hotel Vikram
Located near the Moolchand metro station, Hotel Vikram is open 24/7 and offers great non vegetarian options like chicken tikka and fish & chips. Although more expensive than street food restaurants, this is worth it as you are in a hotel restaurant that serves delicious food with alcohol. The USP being it gives you the best of both worlds cheaper than a 5 star and fancier than a normal restaurant.

Murthal
If all else fails trust Sukhdev! By now you know what delhi has to offer, and if its not to your taste there is a personally recommended option. Drive down to Murthal and prepare to be amazed by the sheer taste of the parathas and lassi offered at Sukhdev Dhaba amongst others. All sorts of food is available here as there are several family dhabas[restaurants to be fair] available and all are 24/7. A 50 km drive is worth the effort as it will leave you happily fulfilled by tending to both your hunger and taste buds.
