Went malling in India. First to the DLF Mega Mall. It was lots of small stores.

Then we went to the Metropolitan Mall. We had dinner at Chor Bizarre. It is an Indian restaurant chain started in London and then the owner moved back to New Delhi. "Chor" means "thieves" so the theme of the restaurant is a thief's market. None of the furnishings, plates, and silver match as if they were stolen. The food is Indian eclectic as well so a very interesting variety.

For appetizers, a small hollow piece of dough is poked with the finger. It is filled with garbonzo beans and diced cooked potatoes. Then a thin soup is ladled into the hole and the entire thing is popped into the mouth. Very tasty.

This is followed with soup and then main courses from Afghanistan, North India, South India, and Persia.
