The clustered pockets of East Delhi sadly lacks good eating joints especially of the classy kind. To treat somebody to homely meal of chole-bhature or jalebis, there are plenty of spots in this area but when it comes to fine dining, East Delhi is bereft. After a deep search, we came across bunch of smart family-style restaurants that would fit the bill and one of them is ‘Rocking Woods’. This well-designed restaurant draws in families and foodies regularly. This place saves them a long drive into central or south Delhi, catering to their need for good food and equally good ambience.
