Delhi and Delhiites aren’t the best on many fronts, but one thing right up their alley is food. The Delhi Food Truck Festival (DFTF) is back in its second edition to make that very point, complete with more cuisines than you can taste and even a live music concert to satiate more senses than one.

Care for a BBQ fest on a bike?

The festival, being held at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on 25-26 November, saw an impressive footfall on its first day. You can find over 40 food truck brands and over 30 different food and beverage stalls, showcasing Indian and international dishes and drinks, all in the winter sun! Here’s a glimpse of what you can expect if you plan to visit!

The Instagram hangout spot for the weekend, it seems. 

The most crowded stall was run by Afghanistan’s refugee single mothers who served traditional Afghani non-vegetarian cuisine.

The festival was a hit among Delhi’s college crowd. 

A space to get your groove going to digest all that food, complete with the occasional fake-snow shower.

If you’re hungry, head to the aptly titled ‘Bhook’ for spicy non-vegetarian treats. 

Food trucks are all the rage in India’s metros these days for any number of reasons – from the variety of quick food they serve to the experience they offer.

Smiles were abound each time someone took the first bite of any dish served at the festival. 

Props and nooks for photos make the festival colourful and millennial-friendly.

‘The Project Raag’ lit the stage on fire at the concert later on Saturday night.
