Samosa Singh Opens Its 1st Outlet In Delhi

About Samosa Singh Samosa Singh is one of India’s leading food and beverage services companies. It is a widely loved Indian snack brand focused on becoming India’s ‘SnacKing’. The idea for the brand came from the simple realisation that leisure time and snack foods are intrinsically linked to India’s cultural fabric. Beyond the food itself, Samosa Singh represents a connection to our roots, to the bustling markets where vendors skilfully craft these treats, and to the joy of sharing a snack with friends and strangers alike. They remind us that street food is more than just sustenance—it is an experience, a journey through flavours that tell stories of tradition and innovation. Samosa is a snack that has a unique place in the Indian snacking world. Through Samosa Singh, let us elevate our street food culture and celebrate the spirit of India—the spirit of diversity, unity, and the love for good food that brings us all together. Samosa Singh Opens Up In Delhi Samosa Singh, one of India’s leading quick-service restaurant (QSR) chains, proudly announces its grand entry into Delhi & NCR with the launch of its first outlet in Delhi, located at the busiest metro station, Rajiv Chowk. Samosa Singh is successfully running 40+ cloud kitchens to cater to the demands of customers ordering samosas online from parts of South and West India. The brand started its physical presence last year in December and since then has expanded to 12+ locations, becoming one of the fastest-growing QSR chains in India. Further focusing on becoming India’s ‘SnacKing’, Samosa Singh has opened more than six outlets in less than two weeks, marking the beginning of a significant expansion phase. The new outlets offer freshly made varieties of samosas, kachori, chaats, street food, and more. In a remarkable achievement, the brand will make over 20 outlets operational across North India, including Delhi and the whole of NCR, within the next 3–4 months. “We are finally at the Capital of India, the Dil walaon ki Dilli. For us, entry into this city represents the fulfilment of a dream. Looking ahead, we are excited about the future. This achievement is a testament to the extraordinary teamwork and dedication of our team, as well as the unwavering support and love from our loyal customers. We are ready to savour every moment as we discover the heart and soul of Delhi—one samosa at a time. ” said Nidhi Singh, co-founder of Samosa Singh. Samosa Singh, known for reinventing the traditional samosa with a unique twist, offers a nostalgic culinary experience by preparing Indian snacks live in front of customers. This interactive element brings back the charm of enjoying fresh street food while travelling or during leisure time.     With a mission to strengthen India’s bond with its food, Samosa Singh is committed to delighting customers with fresh, delicious samosas and snacks. The brand’s unique selling proposition lies in its innovative triangle interlocking structure that prevents oil from seeping in, resulting in a lighter and healthier product with the same warmth and crunchiness as our desi samosas. They combine traditional recipes with modern flavours and technology to offer a high-quality and non-greasy snacking experience. They are the first Indian snacking company with a scientific core team and over 100,000 hours of research behind it. Shikhar Veer Singh, Founder of Samosa Singh, added, “The love for samosas is universal, and more so in Delhi, where samosas and chaats are more than food—they’re a delicious tradition. So, as we launch in Delhi, we are celebrating the city where every corner seems to whisper tales of culture and tradition and welcomes us with open arms and a warm, crispy samosa in hand. Having served more than 50 million pieces of delight to customers and counting, the QSR chain will soon be venturing to Chennai and Kochi as well. As Samosa Singh continues its rapid expansion, the brand welcomes the interest of potential franchisee partnerships.

Khi Khi New Delhi- Modern Indian Cuisine Meets Chic Vibes

Khi Khi isn’t just any Indian restaurant that is settled in the heart of Delhi’s Vasant Vihar market. It is a burst of colour, creativity, and deliciousness, giving you an experience that means more than just having a meal or a drink. From the moment you walk into Khi Khi, the ambience whisks you away from monotony. Khi Khi Ambience: Pop Art With An Indian Touch The first thing that you see as you walk in is the vibrant décor. There are pop-art murals splashed across the walls, quirky lighting, and contemporary seating arrangements—this is a feast to the eyes even before you get your hands on the menu. The overall vibe is quite trendy yet warm and inviting, making it the perfect place for a night out with friends or a special date night. The Menu: Khi Khi’s menu was something that I haven’t come across in any other dining places. The menu was named ‘KhiKhizine’. There was a note from the editor that said the Khi Khi literally meant giggles in Hindi. The note mentioned how proud they were about their core values and authenticity in serving their customers. The note also had a tagline saying that ‘Happy hours redefined’, well, weren’t they true about that too! And also, according to them, it is mind-blowing to see how quirky the whole menu is. It had the most quirky F&B names for everything. So without further ado, let’s go over the items on my list that Tarun Sibal’s menu has to offer! Drinks To Slurp: HHH Sour (Homemade, Handmade and Handcrafted): The name itself made me choose the drink; it was absolutely intriguing! The drink includes gin, Limoncello liquer (homemade), honey and vegan foam! The rink was given an aesthetic with lemon candy on the rim. The drink was served in a really decorated coupe. BIG Batch Frozen Martini: The drink comes in a transparent coupe with a mix of Bombay Sapphire gin, Sauvignon Blanc wine, some infused bitters, Lychee shrub and a generous amount of Martini fiero. Yumm! Chakotra: In Hindi, chakotra is the name of grapefruit, and this drink was citrusy and absolutely a pleasure in every drop. A drink with mezcal, grapefruit, fresh lime juice and sugarcane juice.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by TheStyle.World (@thestyle.world) Time To Eat: The food at Khi Khi was just phenomenal and every Indian dish was taken a step above with small twists in the manner of cooking and presentation. Let us take a ride through all the wonderful finger-licking vegetarian and non-vegetarian items on the menu. Galouti Kebab: The Lucknowy style of kebab making just took a new turn at Khi Khi! Different varieties of vegetarian options are mixed and cooked together. Soya Chaap: The most versatile vegetarian food is soya! Your taste buds can go for a ride when you get to taste the soya chaap! Even if you are not a vegetarian, you will definitely fall for this dish! Rosetti Spinach Chaat: Spinach leaves dipped in batter and fried up! Your greens just looked delicious and yes, they were really crunchy and should be on your must-have list. A perfect snack for your evening at KHI KHI. Roasted Beets Salad: A colourful and mighty salad with the main ingredient being Beetroot. The salad was dressed in an elegant manner and presented with many textures and flavours. To know more about this one, all you need to do is scoop out a spoonful and have your mouth full! Mushroom Chettinaad (Open Bao): Chettinad cuisine originally comes from the Chettinad region of Tamil Nadu, India. It is well-known for its food’s bold and spicy flavour combinations, which are the result of a special spice blend. That’s what they did in this dish too and what was the star of the dish? Mushrooms marinated with all the spices and served in an open bao (That was a brilliant twist!) Kaladi Cheese Olive Bread: Kaladi is a ripened cheese bread made from cow or buffalo milk. The flat bread is a French addition to the recipe. Chicken Churrasco: The grilled chicken can never be wrong! Every piece was a perfect bite, with a blast of flavour from the marinade and grilling. Giving the Indian chicken tandoori a South American twist! Pathar Gosht: This is a must if you are at Khi Khi! It is a popular mutton fry dish and it is significantly cooked on a hot stone. The marinated meat was fragrant and it just slipped from my tongue into my throat. It was definitely a flavour powerhouse. This dish is worth exploring! Kulcha daal with mixed seed Missi Roti: The dish was absolutely unforgettable. The kulcha was laced with flax and sunflower seeds. It was served with a dal, and a green chutney. Desserts: Cream Roll: I went on a nostalgia road trip as I saw those cream rolls right in front of me. The taste texture look—everything was just brilliant! Chocolate Mousse: Abolutely delicious! You must devour this salted chocolate one if you really want to feel fulfilled with your dining out at Khi Khi! Baked Riccota Cake: The dessert is served with a dark fruit jam and a Gud toffee. Perfection! Khi Khi was a place where you could go have a great time with your friends or even if you were on a date. It is a place where you can revive your memories of having your favourite food with an ambience that speaks for itself! I had a great time here and yes, I really wish to come back here soon!   Disclaimer: This is a personal dining experience of Ms. Shrishti Jaiswal, Editor in Chief
