Perfect for romance, Veda is one restaurant that will really grab your attention. The interiors were crafted by Rohit Bal, a lauded Indian fashion designer, and everything flickers and shimmers.

For a sweeping 360-degree bird’s eye view of the city, dine at India’s highest revolving restaurant (and the only one in the Delhi), 240-feet up on the 24th floor. You’ll be able to see many monuments such as the Red Fort, Jama Masjid, and Rashtrapati Bhavan. The restaurant takes 90 minutes to complete one revolution, which is about the duration of a leisurely meal. There’s also a lounge bar on the 25th floor, but it remains stationary. The menu focuses on North Indian cuisine but offers Chinese and Continental as well. Food is on the pricier side because of the restaurant’s uniqueness, with a meal for two costing around 2,500 rupees.

Chor Bizaare
ADDRESS :- Hotel Broadway, 4/15A, Asaf Ali Road, Near Delhi Gate, Chatta lal Miya, Chandni Mahal, Chandni Chowk, New Delhi, Delhi 110002, India

Long before he founded Indian Accent, Delhi’s much-acclaimed inventive Indian fine-dining restaurant, Rohit Khattar opened this restaurant at his family’s Broadway Hotel to display his eclectic collection of discarded vintage household items. Chor Bizarre aims to capture the spirit of the “thieves markets” in every large Indian city (and indeed, one takes place near the hotel every Sunday). It definitely creates an interesting dining experience. To give Delhi a break from ubiquitous butter chicken, the restaurant serves cuisine from India’s northern Kashmir region. Go there hungry and feast on the Wazwan, which comes with an array of dishes. The cost is about 2,000 rupees for two. To really work up an appetite, combine lunch with a guided walking tour through Old Delhi.
