Sambhar
In the Ghee Walon ka Rasta market at Johari Bazaar is a shop named Sambhar. The name is a bit misleading. You may associate it with south Indian food, but this place is actually renowned for its phinis, a wire-like sweet dish available only in winters and made with pure ghee coated with sugar syrup. There is lot of fine detail and technique that goes into its preparation and the taste is proof of that. It is best to come here early in the morning to pick up the freshest lot. One can either buy sweet phinis or plain phinis, which can be dipped in sugar syrup at home when you want to eat it. Ghee Walon ka Rasta, Johari Bazaar
