Kolkata and Delhi, the Similarities and Differences: My Travelogue

These instances are very rare in my life when I get a chance to travel outside my city, even though I call myself a traveler. I am one of those who regularly comes across a Facebook post talking about travel and then I tell myself, “Yeah!! This is you bro” which undoubtedly is not me. In last six years, I had very few chances to travel outside Delhi and there are reasons: I can’t travel alone, I at least need one person to be there with me. Moreover, I really feel that people who can travel alone got some courage in them, I really wanna know how do they do that.

Why is Delhi the most polluted city on Earth right now?

Pollution is one of the most pressing issues, that is running rampant in Delhi. The huge population further fuels this raging phenomenon, to a greater and unimaginable degree. Delhi has been ranked first in the most polluted cities around the world, overtaking Beijing of China. And this is not something one thrives to achieve!

Misconceptions About Delhi-ites

Delhi, being the capital of India gives a license to all the states to create some dogmas about it. All around India, there are things you hear about Delhi which is common but WRONG! Until the time you haven’t been in the city, you don’t know its story!

Here are some DOGMA’S that needs to be questioned now!

#1. DELHI-ITES DON’T HAVE A DRIVING SENSE

Trust me, if you learnt driving in Delhi, You’ll be able to drive anywhere in India and Well that makes us a good driver! 

#2. DELHI-ITES ARE MATERIALISTIC 

What if, I tell you being classy doesn’t mean being Materialistic. We might love Gucci, Zara, LV. But we know things beyond it too, forgot about Lajpat and Sarojini?

#3. WE’RE ABUSIVE IN EVERYTHING, WE DON’T NEED REASON, AND WE’RE JUST ABUSIVE

That’s again Wrong, We just have a little obsession with the word “BC”   and trust me we most probably don’t mean it!

#4. WE ARE RICH SPOILED BRATS (BIGDAE AULAD) 

But which city doesn’t have them? Like every city, we have people struggling hard. Don’t generalise us with just a few people!

#5. DELHI GIRLS ARE HIGH MAINTENANCE 

Oh well, we are just way too ambitious for you! We have big dreams and we are hard to deal with, so if you couldn’t get any Delhi girl, call yourself low not us high maintained!

#6. DELHI-ITES ARE A BUNCH OF ALCOHOLICS!

I am sorry, but partying over the weekend after a hard week is everyone’s birthright! We won’t judge you. Come party with us! 

#7. DELHI-ITES LOVE TO SHOW OFF

YAYAY! We have the stuff to show! And dude, that depends on person to person! 

#8. WE USE SLANGS! 

That isn’t slang, that’s our language we use it daily, that is how we speak! 

#9. LASTLY, WE ARE ARROGANT AF! 

No, No! 

We are sweet and loving people. But yeah we’ll surely get offended if you didn’t share this post ;) 

People we are as loving as you are, stop judging us!
Dilli toh dil walo ka shahar hai!
Pyar se baat karoge, pyar milega, gussa dikhaoge toh gali hi milegi!

Confused about where to eat in Delhi?

What’s up, people? Hungry much? Or confused about where to eat in Delhi? Here I am your savior. So many places, so many varieties yet we are indecisive about where to really try. Well, I will tell you about a small market in Delhi with the finest food options and quality and the best part? It is pocket-friendly. Any guesses? It’s Satyaniketan, near the south campus of Delhi University, famous amongst the college goers and youngsters. Few cafes like Up town Café, Big Yellow Door also known as BYD and 2 Bandits are a must try. But my personal favorite and the one I will talk about in this blog is café Hera Pheri.

I recently visited this place and fell in love the moment I entered. The entire set up and the ambience is so different and beautiful. All you see around is people laughing, hanging out and galloping the delicious food. The place is a little small but the staff members including the manager are very sweet and helpful. The time you ring the bell on your table they are there at your service.

I have visited BYD and Up town café but this place attracted me the most. This place and the ambience can literally cheer up your mood. Also, when I say it is pocket-friendly, believe me, it is. I went with my friends and we tried strawberry shake (it is good), oreo shake (I bet it’s the best), meat lovers pizza (as the name says, all the chicken lovers must try this one, it has a unique texture and goes with the name with salami, sausages and chicken chunks in it), tomato salsa fries (so different yet so mouth watering) and the Punjabi tikka burger (looking at the green bun I was confused whether I ordered something wrong but then as they say don’t judge the book by its cover, likewise it is the yummiest burger I have had till date).


For all the vegetarians, there are a lot of options too and the classic margarita pizza is a must try, trust me it’s like heaven on earth.  It's worth and after eating when you look at the bill you fall more in love with it. Also, they have different ways of giving you the bill. We got the bill in a case with a door and the people next to our table got it in a box.

Unique, isn’t it? Everything in Hera Pheri is amazing the only drawback is that it is too small, so you have to wait for a while for your turn. Even if you are thinking of throwing a party, I highly recommend this place and you won’t regret it either.
