I am new in Delhi, want to visit famous markets of Delhi. I have heard a lot about Delhi's Dilli Haat. Can you guide me how can I reach there and what are the highlights of Dilli Haat, including eating joints.

Where are you staying in Delhi? Dilli Haat is situated on Aurobindo Marg opposite INA market close to All India Medical Sciences.
Here you will find craftsmen from various parts of India working on & displaying their wares. Lots of ethenic stuff. Bargaining is common.
There are food stalls from all the states too. Avoid the meat momos. My personal favourite is Bijoli Grill. Try Mughlai Paratha, Sorshey Pabda with rice & sweet curd and Sandesh for dessert.
