Billu Di Hatti

Kashmir & Ladakh


There are numerous good street food stalls around Residency Rd: Billu Di Hatti is every bit as grimy-looking as most, but regular queues (mostly for takeaways) attest to the quality of the tandoori chicken, Kashmiri kebab and delicious mid-spiced liver curry, served with fresh naan (tandoor-cooked flat bread). Nothing for vegetarians. It's opposite Hotel Natraj.
