What to expect

You will be transferred by vehicle from your hotel in Delhi City to the restaurant Karim's located in the Chandni Chowk area of Old Delhi.

Some of its signature dishes include Biriyani, Mughlai Paratha, Murg Musallam, Kebabs, Malai Kofta and Rezala.

Karim’s has an interesting historical back ground. In mid-19th century, Mohammed Aziz was a cook in the royal court of the last Mughal Emperor, Bahadur Shah Zafar who was dethroned by the British in 1857 and removed to Rangoon. In 1911, when the Delhi Durbar was held for the coronation of King George V, one of Aziz's sons Haji Karimuddin moved back to Delhi with an innovative idea of opening a Dhaba (roadside restaurant) to cater to the people coming from all over India to join the coronation. Haji Karimuddin started the Dhaba selling just two items,  Alu gosht (mutton with potatoes) and Daal (lentil curry) served with Rumali Roti. Foodies need not worry. Today’s meal choices are many. After your sumptuous Mughlai meal you will be transferred back to your hotel.
