Bukhara

Yes, it’s touristy—Bill Clinton ate here, for crying out loud—but even local foodies agree this boisterous hotel restaurant serves Delhi’s finest, most succulent kebabs, straight from the open kitchen’s tandoors. Pull up a rustic wooden stool, tie on a Madras-print flannel bib (c’mon, nobody knows you here), and see if you can tackle even one football-size portion of minced lamb, guinea hen, or juicy salmon. Oh, and expect to find the place packed, whether you come early in the day or late at night.
