Smoke House Deli

My friends and I wail on the lack of places in delhi serving hearty continental breakfast. Some time back I was recommended this place ‘smoke house deli’ in hauz khas village which dispersed my woes. Don’t be fooled by its name. Smoke house deli is a deli style restaurant serving casual aclectic food with flair. The menu is heavily influenced by American culture but here is where the similarity ends. The owner has very brilliantly designed the décor turning the restaurant into a tunnel of light. The pale walls are covered in hand made sketches of Mughal architecture blending nicely with the view. The location compliments the interiors in every way. To sit in a beautiful room flooded with vivid sunlight sampling the gorgeous cuisine puts a big smile on your face.

In breakfast the kitchen prepares bagels, buttermilk pancakes, eggs in classic styles and hash browns. For starters they make fritters, skewers, lamb & chipotle patties, chorizo & potato picante and much more. You can make a meal with your bowl of soup and salad by adding half a sandwich. The restaurant serves various burgers and hotdogs with lamb/chicken/vegetable options. Pepperoni & bacon pizza is a pizza after your own heart. Its salty goodness gives you a pause and go mm. Their mains page is an interesting collection of recipes featuring lemon & mascarpone polenta, market vegetable pan crumble, peri peri grilled chicken and steak pit. Add cobb on side to make a picture perfect platter. The food speaks for itself. Its simplicity yet flavours packed punch bombards the mouth. The beverage menu is as extensive as well. From teas, coffee, juices they store smoothies too. The desserts created are architectural masterpieces. Hazelnut mousse flan, crème brulee, warm apple crumble all wraps up the end of meal in a neat bow.

Under two thousand you have mastered quite a bit of variety. Kids are most appreciated in this establishment. They have their own part in the menu to suit their tiny appetites. Their food is presented in fun ways too like helping of French fries arriving a mini toy truck. No two year old can resist that! On children’s day the kids get special deals too. Smoke house deli is a fantastic piece of culinary addition to our community. Visit them or lose onto a great dining experience.
