Chole bhature to kulfi falooda: The zodiac signs re-imagined as iconic Delhi street food

·

If we could, we’d eat all of this at once, and we know you would too. But for the sake of our stomachs — Delhipedia has taken some of the capitals most classic, iconic meals and assigned one to each of the 12 zodiac signs. Here’s hoping you’ve been assigned your favourite Delhi street treat!

Aries

Street food: Chole bhature

Why: BIG energy. That’s what the child of the zodiac, Aries stands for. And what could be louder or bigger than those blooming bhaturas making their way to you with its soulmate, the loud-on-spices chole?

Taurus

Street food: Paneer makhani and butter naan

Why: Taurus represents all things luxury. And what captures that better than some silken paneer makhani. The stretchy naan is the perfect analogy for the otherwise grounded earth sign, albeit always glazed with a heavy helping of makkhan!

Gemini

Street food: Golgappa

Why: An explosion of flavours and everyone’s favourite — no one ever really says no to a quick round of golgappas. And just by the way, that’s exactly how strong Gemini’s social cred is.

Cancer

Street food: Rajma chawal

Why: Rajma chawal will never not stir your soul. If it doesn’t, you simply don’t have one. And the emotional water sign of Cancer, who has a tendency to feel everything all-at-once, is the perfect fit for each spoonful of love.

Leo

Street food: Tandoori chicken

Why: If you’re asking for a plate of tandoori chicken, best believe it’s going to be the star of the spread, no matter how many other luxe preparations you’ve ordered for. Leos and their magnetism also tend to have the same kind of impact.
