Shraddha Kapoor isn’t just Bollywood’s sweetheart—she’s also a hardcore foodie. From her love for Mumbai’s street food to her appreciation for Delhi’s rich flavours and Pan-Asian delights, she has a list of go-to dishes and restaurants that every fan needs to check out. So, what better way to celebrate her birthday than by indulging in her favourite meals, at her favourite places? Whether you’re in Mumbai, Delhi, or planning a global foodie adventure, here’s your Shraddha Kapoor-approved food trail.
Mumbai: The City of Sev Puri and Seafood Love
Being a true Maharashtrian mulgi, Shraddha is all about bold flavours, fresh seafood, and spicy curries. Her ultimate comfort meal? Kalwan bhaat (a coconut-based fish curry with rice), is best made by her mum. She’s also a chocolate hoarder, always bringing back sweet treats from her travels. Here’s where you can get a taste of her favourites:
-
Dosa Plaza, Tardeo – For that crispy, buttery benne dosa
-
Gajalee, Mumbai – A seafood haven for pomfret curry, fried fish, and prawn rice curry
-
Wasabi by Morimoto, Mumbai – Because sushi is always a good idea
-
Home-style Maharashtrian food – If you can convince your mum to make some tadke wali dal or mutton curry, you’re already winning
Delhi: Chole Bhature & Paratha Paradise
When in Delhi, Shraddha swears by the classics. During the NDTV World Summit 2024, she gave a shout-out to the capital’s chole bhature, aloo paratha, kali dal, and paneer makhani—because, let’s be honest, no trip to Delhi is complete without these rich, buttery indulgences.
-
Paratha Stalls in Chandni Chowk – For a stuffed aloo paratha with oodles of butter.
-
A Solid Dhaba Meal – Grab some paneer makhani and kali dal with tandoori rotis.
Street Food & Sweet Cravings
If there’s one thing Shraddha can eat every single day, it’s sev puri. She’s also a big fan of Ahmedabad’s night food market at Manek Chowk, where she snacked on Gujarati treats during a film shoot. And let’s not forget chocolates—her travel must-have!
-
Any Mumbai Chaat Stall – Order sev puri, and imagine you’re sharing it with Shraddha

Manek Chowk, Ahmedabad – If you’re up for a street food adventure
-
A Good Patisserie – Shraddha’s fridge is always stocked with chocolates from her travels

Lunch – A simple, wholesome meal of dal, roti, green veggies, or seafood
