Every year, September 13 is celebrated as International Chocolate Day, a date that gives us yet another reason to indulge in the world’s most loved ingredient. While chocolate cakes, brownies, and shakes are easy go-to treats, Delhi’s vibrant food scene takes it a step further—experimenting with bold, quirky, and delightful chocolate creations. From savoury twists to Instagram-worthy desserts, here are five places in the Capital serving chocolate like you’ve never had before.
Chocolate Herb Grilled Chicken – Savorworks, GK-II
The star at Savorworks is their Chocolate Herb Grilled Chicken—a dish that surprises with its balance of sweet and savoury. The chicken is marinated in dark chocolate and herbs, grilled to perfection, and served on a bed of fresh spinach. What makes it unforgettable is the drizzle of their signature dark chocolate chili vinaigrette, which adds a subtle kick while enhancing the rich, earthy flavours. While the infusion of dark chocolate is subtle, it elevates the grilled chicken’s taste, offering a one-of-a-kind dining experience. Perfect for experimental foodies, this dish redefines what chocolate can do beyond desserts.
Chocolate Golgappa – Choko La, Khan Market
Delhi’s love for golgappas finds a sweet upgrade at Choko La. Their Chocolate Golgappas replace the traditional puris with crisp chocolate shells, filled with mousse or liquid chocolate, creating a bite-sized explosion of indulgence. The first crunch gives way to a smooth, creamy center, making it both playful and decadent. It’s a fusion dish that sparks curiosity and satisfies a sweet craving at the same time. For those who love experimenting with street food classics, this chocolaty twist is a must-try.
Chocolate Pizza – Big Chill Cakery, Khan Market
Big Chill is already a cult favourite in Delhi for its pastas, shakes, and desserts, but their Chocolate Pizza deserves a special mention on International Chocolate Day. This dessert pizza comes with a thin crust base topped with gooey chocolate, crunchy nuts, and fluffy marshmallows, baked to perfection. The combination of textures—crispy, soft, and melty—makes it an indulgent comfort dish. It’s ideal for sharing with friends, although most chocolate lovers will find it hard not to finish one all by themselves.
Chocolate Sushi – Guppy, Lodhi Colony
For those who like a touch of elegance and artistry on their plate, Guppy offers Chocolate Sushi. This imaginative creation rolls together chocolate, fruits, and cream, designed to look like traditional sushi but with a sweet twist. Served in delicate portions, it not only tastes divine but also makes for a visually stunning dessert. The presentation alone is enough to make it Instagram-worthy, while the combination of flavours ensures it’s memorable long after the last bite. It’s fusion done right, appealing to both sushi enthusiasts and chocolate lovers alike.
Hot Chocolate Samosa – The Bombaykery, Cyber Hub
The samosa, one of India’s most iconic snacks, gets a modern makeover at The Bombaykery. Their Hot Chocolate Samosa replaces the usual spiced potato filling with molten chocolate. Crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside, each bite feels familiar yet new. It’s a playful dish that bridges street food nostalgia with modern dessert innovation. Pair it with a hot cup of coffee or chai, and you have the perfect indulgence for a rainy day in Delhi.

International Chocolate Day is more than just about indulging in sweets—it’s about celebrating creativity with this universal favourite. Delhi’s chefs and cafes are pushing boundaries, turning chocolate into a versatile ingredient that shines in both sweet and savoury dishes.
