All taken from the recent trip to Delhi, Agra, Jaipur.
The papad seller outside City Palace, Jaipur. They were Rs.10 each and tasted a lot like tapioca papads from Kerala – absolutely delicious. Look at the happy grin on TH’s face!
Freshly roasted peanuts. ~ Outside Dilli Haat, Delhi.
Fresh and green! ~ Near India Gate, Delhi.
Boiled sweet potatoes, freshly cut star fruit, with a dash of squeezed lime. ~ Near India Gate, Delhi
Boiled eggs for the hungry ones returning from work. ~ Near Gurgaon railway station
Breakfast in the Delhi-Agra Shatabdi Express. Brown bread, vegetable cutlets, Amul butter (YUM!), jam, and juice. Coffee/tea was served first with Marie Biscuts. Never knew such service existed in Indian Railways. Thoroughly impressed!
Dinner on the Agra-Delhi Shatabdi Express – Panner Butter Masala, Chhole Masala, Vegetable Pulao, Chapati, Dahi and cut carrot-radish salad. Like I said, impressive. Meals are included in the ticket cost – about Rs.400 per person, one way.
Mobile Chaat Counter. The Govinda poster was popular. Almost all chaatwallas had it. ~Near India Gate, Delhi
Oh meetha paan, how I’ve missed you. One of the best meetha pans I’ve ever tasted! ~ Connaught Place, Delhi

Ah! Meetha paan! I miss those days in hyd when we'd stop by after dinner for paan. Elika and Kilang , my friends at CIEFL introduced me to the wondrous thing. Now, the problem is I dont know any nice paan place in Chennai and then again, eating paan sweet or not is frowned upon so much here!

Lovely clicks,thanks for sharing!
I have travelled in Chennai-Banglore Shatabdi 3 yrs back and they served food like this,even I was surprized the first time… 🙂
Sharmilee! :)
Delicous spread..Even I am wondering how irctc serves such good food as my experiences with them were always bad

I must admit, the vegetable cutlets were a bit too heavy on coriander. But more than the taste of food, I was amazed at the mere fact that they served food like this on trains. Its my first time experiencing that 🙂
