II. A Stroll Down The Jama Masjid Lane
So, why not go to the oldest, most loved food hub of Delhi? Jama Masjid and the lane directly in front of it is almost always full of people! And while the food from Al-Jawahar, Karim’s, New Al-Jawahar etc are the stars of this lane, there’s something here many people don’t know of.
Amazing Fact: Ever heard of Fakiri? Well, it’s a system followed by underprivileged people sitting outside restaurants in the lane. Now, they don’t ask you for food, but they simply hold a plate. And any good Samaritan can give some money to the respective restaurant manager asking him to feed the people for free.
