The knights of Aap ki Khatir
R.I.P. to my favorite kebab stand in Khan Market here in Delhi.
In a process that seemed draconian and lacking in reason, police shut down a number of market stalls including a tiny branch of Aap ki Khatir, the hawker of heaven, the best kebabwallah on the planet.
I’m thankful that the older, bigger branch (above) still exists in the Nizamuddin neighborhood; but trips to Khan Market are a little less joyous these days without the promise of paneer paratha roll.

The 14th-century fort, Tughlaqabad, is a tourist haven that tourists seem to have forgotten. So today, it’s more likely the home of a few people grazing their goats, donkeys and cattle. See below. Continue reading this entry » » »

Visions of the 14th century

Bovine wanderer
Welcome to Tughlaqabad, a fort built in the 1320s and shortly abandoned. Today, it sits on the southern edge of Delhi and remains a largely ignored tourist attraction home to random herders and a handful of Hindu devotees who visit an open air shrine.
The circumference of the fort is measured in kilometers. Adjacent to the site are a beautiful tomb and a smaller fort.
It’s a spectacular place to spend an afternoon and one of Delhi’s fantastic if often overlooked historical sites. See below Continue reading this entry » » »

Delhi winter: Keep the home (and street) fires burning
Posted by Adam Jadhav | Filed under india
Not exactly a warm hearth
Delhi winters are cold. Maybe not by U.S. standards, but here only the very rich (and not even most of them) can retreat to insulated buildings and central heating. Hence, if it’s 38 degrees outside, it’s pretty close to 38 inside.
The middle class survives on electric space heaters. The poor and laboring classes make due with nightly fires of wood, scrap and garbage. The extremely impoverished huddle together under blankets.
Here, some chowkidars and drivers sit around a burning piece of chipboard in posh Hauz Khas village in December.
Obviously, it’s not exactly chilly in Delhi anymore. But, as usual, I’m behind on posting photos.
