Rakshabandhan is that one day when siblings actually make time for each other — so why settle for the usual mithai, family photos and a quick catch-up? This year, turn the celebration into a proper sibling date with good food, easy conversations and a setting that matches your vibe. Whether you and your sibling bond over Indian flavours, cocktails and bar bites, coffee and pastries, or a good pizza, these four Delhi spots are perfect for making your Rakhi outing a little more special.
Pincode by Chef Kunal Kapur
If you and your sibling are the kind who love trying something new, Pincode by Chef Kunal Kapur makes for a fun Rakhi pick. The concept brings regional Indian flavours to life with its interactive “Pincode Stories”, open kitchen and playful dishes such as Hyderabadi Biryani Cones and Truffle Dal Arancini. Operated by True Palate Hospitality, it is a great choice for siblings who would rather explore a menu together than stick to the usual celebration spread.

From Mushroom Dimsums and Avocado Tartare to Soya Boti Tikka and thin-crust pizzas, there is plenty to share across the table.
