Delhi Dallying
I finally woke up and faced my first Delhi day at sunset- dragged Boyan out the door and up and down Main Bazaar in Paharganj in search of the elusive Kitchen Cafe, where I sit now, 4 stories on a rooftop terrace above the madness of the streets below. Leaning over the cement railing, I have a bird's eye view of the bizarre traffic patterns at a …
