Check out this guide that will make the task of ordering food for your annual Diwali parties much easier.
While Diwali parties are the highlight of the festive season, planning it is quite a task. One of the most important aspects of the party (other than the cards ofcourse!) is the food spread. If your guest list is long and you are planning to order in the food, here’s all the places you could order in your food from. Whether it is exciting party boxes that will allow your guest to choose from a variety of dishes or ordering in from various iconic food spots, this guide will make it easier for you to place your orders as you prepare to host your annual Diwali soiree.
Make Diwali parties and celebrations more special with Call Me Chotu’s party boxes. You can pick boxes of your choice and can also customise the dishes in the box. Whether you go for their high tea party box (features 4 pakoras with vada pav sliders) where you can choose from a variety of pakoras, their kebab party box (includes 4 vegetarian kebabs), or their Chinese party box (contains 4 Chinese vegetarian starters), each box will leave your guests impressed.
Instead of ordering one kind of box, you could also order all the boxes and allow your guests to pick what they want.
These party boxes are available on Zomato and at all Call Chotu outlets in Delhi.
If you are unsure about where to order dinner for your friends at your Diwali party, play it safe with an order from Gulatis. Your order must feature their iconic butter chicken, which is considered one of the best in the city. Pair it with their roomali roti, bharwan naan, or a bread of your choice.
From their kebabs, go for the veg galouti kebab, hara bhara cheese kebab, and kakori kebabs. Their Hyderabadi dum biryanis are a surefire hit and something that guests will love. Gulatis offers a variety of options for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians, allowing you to cater to all guests regardless of their dietary preferences.
The Gulati special dessert platter should be a no-brainer when ordering desserts. You could also go for their mung dal halwa or gajar ka halwa. Keep an eye out for all the offers they will be running on their online and in-store orders.
If you are looking for great Chinese food to serve your family and friends as they gather at your place for a card party, then Chimney Sizzlers’ party boxes should be your go-to choice. From a variety of momos, manchurian with fried rice and a Chinese spread like none other, the party boxes will leave your guests asking for more (so make sure to order a little extra).
If you wish to place an order and inquire more about the party boxes, please DM them on Instagram, as details about the boxes have not been released on Zomato yet.
If there is one thing that no Delhiite would say no to, it is the city’s beloved chaat from its renowned chaat corners. If you are planning a Diwali get-together in Delhi and want to ensure that all your guests feel at home, then a chaat party is a great idea. Order your friends’ favourite dishes from popular spots across the city. For starters, go for aloo tikki or raj kachori from Bittu Tikki Wala and golgappe from Raju Chaat Corner in Connaught Place. Chole bhature should be a no-brainer when it comes to mains. Either opt for the iconic Sitaram Diwan Chand Chaat Bhandaar or Lotan ke Chole Bathure.
To close the meal, you could opt for kulfi from Kuremal Kulfi or hot chocolate fudge from Nirula’s. While it may take some time for you to place all the orders, it will leave your guests feeling special and loved.
