Winter is here, and comfort food is on our mind. We’re already dreaming of tucking into warm Thupka or biting into a slice of pizza that’s oozing cheese. And if you, like us, believe that comfort food is the answer to the chilling winter, we’ve rounded up six options for you to try in the city..
Cheese Fondue @ Cafe Delhi Heights
It#39;s a pot full of warm liquid cheese. Well, enough said. Hot melted cheese is cooked to a creamy thick consistency and served with a tray of toasted bread, fruits, sautéed chicken chunks, fried crumbs, sautéed vegetables and more. Besides, the cheese is infused with 30 ml of white wine. Isn’t that perfect?

Mobar Burger @ Monkey Bar
This grand burger might just be the panacea to all your woes.. With two juicy 150 gram beef (buffalo meat) patties packed between two black buns, this one also contains lettuce, cheese, crisp bacon, caramelised onions, tomato and mayonnaise. And if that#39;s not enough, it comes with a side of fries, coleslaw and pickle. The only trouble: eating it without getting all sloppy.
Price: Rs 490

Pao Com hourico@ Bernardo#39;s

Keema Thupka @ Yeti - The Himalayan Kitchen
If you’re a fan of North Eastern food, chances are you swear by a warm bowl of Thupka on a gloomy winter evening. This place nestled in HKV does a stellar Kheema Thupka - a steaming hot bowl full of sautéed noodles along with spicy minced meat of your choice (chicken, mutton, pork or buffalo) and diced crispy vegetables. It’s aversatile dish and works as a snack, a soup or a complete meal in itself . We suggest you go for the pork version.
Price: Rs 385
Where: GK2 and Hauz Khas Village
Bacon Cheeseburger Bombs @ The Piano Man
These delicious bite-sized poppers come wrapped in bacon. Unlike the traditional burger, where the stuffing is sandwiched between two buns, here bread/bun has no role to play. A mixture of spiced minced lamb meat and cheese is wrapped inside a sheet of bacon and baked to perfection. Pure bliss!
Price: Rs 550
Where: Safdarjung and Palam Vihar
Quattro Formaggi Pizza @ Amici Cafe
When it comes to comfort food, how can pizza not be on the list! This four cheese pizza - Gorgonzola, Scamorza, Cheddar and Mozzarella - is melt-in-the-mouth delicious. And what’s more, it’s wood fired, making it the ideal comfort food to snack on during winters.

Kerala Styled Chilli Beef Toasties @ The Chatter House
Loaded with the goodness of spices from God’s own country, this dish is a clear winner. These toasties are essentially homemade garlic bread with melted butter in the crust and they come topped with chunks of pan roasted beef (buffalo) meat cooked in spices and coconut milk. The toasties are then topped with a mix of yellow and white Cheddar and their in-house brown sauce (chicken broth reduction). Enjoy this with a side of crunchy fresh Greek Salad and lots of ketchup!
