    International Journal of Research and Review www.ijrrjournal.com E-ISSN: 2349-9788; P-ISSN: 2454-2237 Review Paper Impact of Different Food Cultures on Cuisine of Delhi Chef Prem Ram1, Dr. Sonia Sharma2 1Asst. Professor BCIHMCT, New Delhi 2 School of Tourism and Hospitality Service Management (SOTHSM), IGNOU, New Delhi Corresponding Author: Chef Prem Ram ABSTRACT Culture of society and nation plays crucial role that is reflected and practiced in food industry in the big umbrella of food culture. Food culture talks about tradition, taboos, beliefs, rituals, interiors and influence of globalization being followed by the service provider that is being apparent in quality, quantity, varieties, taste, neatness and behaviour of service staffs as these factors lead to customer satisfaction for paid prices. The way that Food is produced, distributed, selected, obtained, afforded, stored, prepared, ordered, served, consumed, promoted, and learnt about can reveal much about the customs and attitudes of every social group (Counihan, 1998). This study is focused on Delhi only where food culture is a mixture of its past, different cultures and traditions. According to Gandhi (2015) the city of Delhi is a hub of cuisine. The city has absorbed, over the centuries, settlers, and visitors from across the globe. The emperors, the nobles, the viceroys and the sahibs all provided generous patronage to the cuisine of Delhi and contributed the cultivation of fine taste. Food culture is to be followed by concerned services provider and present study is an attempt to explore of food culture, cuisines, preferences and choices in Delhi through literature review. Key Words: Food Culture, cuisines, food preferences, food choices, and Hospitality.

  • Spatial Data Modeling in Gis for Historical Restoration and Conservation of Cultural Heritage of Seven Cities of Delhi
    SPATIAL DATA MODELING IN GIS FOR HISTORICAL RESTORATION AND CONSERVATION OF CULTURAL HERITAGE OF SEVEN CITIES OF DELHI Madan Mohan Department of Geography, Faculty of Natural Sciences, Jamia Millia Islamia (Central University) New Delhi, INDIA [email protected], [email protected], Commission V, WG V/4 KEY WORDS: History, Human Settlement, Change, Structure, Cultural Heritage, GIS, Integration, Reconstruction ABSTRACT Delhi is one of the ancient historical and greatest cultural cities of the World. Delhi’s two monuments the Qutb Minar and Humayun’s Tomb have been declared the World Cultural Heritage sites. Delhi was built and rebuilt seven times on different sites through out the history within a triangular area of about 142.20 sq. kms. lying between the last ridge of the Aravalli Range and the River Yamuna. The remains of the seven cities of Delhi can still be seen across the landscape from the Tomar city of Lal-Kot to Siri, Tughluqabad, Jahanpanah and Firuzabad of the Sultans and then Purana-Qila and Shahjahanabad of the Mughals. Moreover, the New Delhi is historically the ‘eighth city’ built by the Britishers. The present Delhi is a complex agglomeration of built fabric which exists as evidence in the form of layers of various historic time periods. It is noteworthy to mention that the vertical and horizontal expansions have adversely been affected the historical areas as well as several cultural heritage sites particularly during the post- independence period in Delhi. Therefore, the widened role is not only to meet the challenges of development, but also to preserve and protect the different facets of the Delhi’s personality.
