Did you know there’s a Korean fast-food café in Delhi? It’s called Coco’s and it’s a recent addition to A-Mart, a predominantly Korean supply store that opened last year. The café mostly has burger-and-fries, momos and the like, but also a couple of Korean ramen and stir-fry options. A-Mart itself has everything from dried fish to an entire section for ramen. Canned silkworm pupae, anyone?
9am-9pm. A-1, Mahipalpur Extension, NH8 (26789999). (Sonal Shah)

A toy boy is coming to town. If Noddy were to visit India next year, he would be entitled to senior citizen benefits. The little wooden boy created by English author Enid Blyton has been around for 59 years. This fortnight, fans in four Indian cities can see him in a 60-minute musical from Australia. ‘Noddy and the Treasure Map’ premieres in Mumbai on 20 August, before travelling to Delhi, Bangalore and Kolkata. It is produced by an Australian firm, Millennium Entertainment, and is brought to India by Delhi-based “Just Because It’s Children". (Bijal Vachharajani)
