Sarafa Bazaar
सराफ़ा बाज़ार
A jewellery street by day, which turns into a street food night market after the gold shops shut. Mawa-filled jalebi, sabudana vada and corn bhutta kees are its signature snacks.
Sarafa Bazaar is located behind Rajwada Palace. By day it is Indore's traditional gold and silver jewellery street. After about 9 pm, the vendors take over the street and stay open until around 1–2 am. Must-try dishes include sabudana vada, bhutta kees (corn stew), gulab jamun, giant jalebi, Dahi Vada served with a flourish at Joshi's, and an assortment of Rabri desserts. All of them are vegetarian. The crowds are dense, so keep an eye on your belongings. Choose stalls where food is being fried fresh and where there are plenty of people, and drink bottled water.
