Chittaranjan Park is a neighbourhood in South New Delhi, set up in the late 1960s to house Bengali migrants from what was then East Pakistan and soon after became Bangladesh. The evening time is best to take a "walk" through the market.
It comes alive with Bengalis eating their fill of the Calcutta style street food of mutton, fish chops, kathi rolls, and Calcutta Chinese street food. Yum! It's also the best place to go a hunting for freshwater fish, an integral part of Bengali cuisine.
If you can stomach the stink of fresh and dried seafood and fresh water fish this place is unbelievable.It is popularly known that wherever there are fishes there are bengalis. Chittaranjan Park is the main place to buy fishes from rohu to hilsa.
