Bhoj NORTH INDIAN $ (Sector 22-B; standard/choti thali 140/110; h7.30am-10.30pm; a) A travellers favourite, this is an unpretentious spot to fuel up on a hearty North Indian veg thali. The thali ingredients change throughout the day and you can augment the chapattis with rice for a nominal 10, or light eaters can order the smaller choti thali.
Mehfil MULTICUISINE $$ (Sector 17-C; mains 140-300; h11am-midnight; a) Indian, Chinese and Continental food served in comfortable surrounds, with the murg tawa (Punjabi-style chicken) and methi murg (chicken with fenugreek) among the standouts. Spice afi cionados may find some dishes too tame.
