Ground Truth: Delhi

Is Delhi street food safe? The one rule a local uses

The question people ask: “Will the street food make me sick?”

The danger was never street food. The danger is lukewarm.

A samosa straight out of boiling oil is a safer bet than cut fruit sitting on a fancy buffet.

One rule: eat it hot, watch it cook, or don't eat it.

From Chapter 17, The One Food Rule, by Saurabh, born and living in Delhi.

The rest is in the book.

195 pages from someone born in Delhi, and Saurabh on WhatsApp for your whole trip. $29 for the first 100 readers.
