The parties that end with one more party are often the best kinds. One that has more food than alcohol, more snacks than chakna, and hungry people looking to get a bite of their comfort food. And while the capital city has an inexhaustible number of places for when the hunger pangs hit pre and post sundown, once it strikes 12 on the clock, options for good late night food spots in Delhi disappear like Cinderella.
