Every city in India has its own special 'Chor Bazaar' which translates as 'thieves market'. All kinds of wares find their way here (with or without the consent of the owners). From furniture to fabrics, pearls to periodicals, crystal to cutlery…With antique tables as counters for coal irons and grandfather clocks jostling with stereos, colourful street food vendors, bangle sellers and old jewellery sharing space with auto parts - the Chor Bazaar captures the spirit of India like no other place.

This was our inspiration for a new Indian restaurant located on the crossroads of Old and New Delhi. To celebrate the eclecticism of India in all its exuberant irreverence, we coned the name with a pun on the word bazaar, and 'Chor Bizarre' was born…

It is only at the Chor Bizarre that you can find 'a little bit of this, and a little bit of that...In the past we have been called 'a gallery', 'an attic', really clever' and 'quite mad' - all descriptions that we feel sum up the idea of Chor Bizarre. Part art, part kitsch, part imaginative, part contrived - the interiors of Chor Bizarre have been put together with India's finery, frivolity, and sheer joie-de-vivre in mind. ' Nothing matches' but we hope 'everything goes' - an ethic quite literally manifest in our plans to periodically change the restaurant, giving our guests a whole range of new objects and a whole new ambience to come back to. Make us an offer we cannot refuse and you may walk out with more than just an enjoyable meal.

Having created an atmosphere that provides a unique setting for truly authentic and inspired cuisine, Chor Bizarre has been one of India's most celebrated restaurants since 1990. Chor Bizarre, New Delhi is also India's first ISO 9002 Restaurant - the first to win this international distinction for quality in the country.
