1. 1.Start with mild, familiar options like naan bread, paneer dishes, or plain rice for cautious eaters, then gradually introduce spicier items.
2. 2.Visit during early lunch (12-1pm) or late lunch (2-3pm) to avoid peak crowds and get faster service from popular stalls.
3. 3.Carry hand sanitizer and wet wipes as handwashing facilities may be basic. Bottled water is essential for kids not accustomed to local tap water.
4. 4.Look for stalls with high turnover and lots of local customers, as this indicates fresh food preparation.
5. 5.Download a translation app or have your hotel write down dietary restrictions in Hindi, especially for allergies or if you need strictly vegetarian options.

Visit on weekday afternoons (12pm-3pm) when it's less crowded than evenings and weekends. The cooler months from October to March offer the most comfortable weather for enjoying outdoor market dining.

This is a casual local market with basic seating and facilities, not a sanitized tourist spot. Expect authentic street food hygiene standards, so choose busy stalls with visible food preparation. Most vendors accept cash only (Indian Rupees), and meals are very affordable at around 150-300 rupees per person.

Open year-round, but most enjoyable during the cooler, dry season from October through March. Summer months (April-June) can be extremely hot and humid. Monsoon season (July-September) may affect outdoor seating and comfort.
