One minute travel guide to enigmatic pluralism - 1
DAY 1 : STREET FOODS OF INDIAI always believe, if you really want to listen to the heartbeats of the country you will be travelling, you should begin with street foods. As for me - i would be trying out chin chin in africa and bing in china, shawarma in europe and pretzel in usa, the list is pretty big.
1. Phuchka ( also known as golgappa and pani puri )
2. Jhal muri ( also known as masala muri )
3. Pao vaji
4. Vel puri
5. Batata puri
6. Alu kabli
7. Peaji ( also known as onion pakora )
8. Beguni ( also known as baingan ie eggplant pakora )
9. Egg / chicken kati roll ( simply called roll in short, and though they look like a happy tortilla wrap, they are not so in taste )
10. Ghugni
Bon appetit!

I am now salivating and there is nothing I can do about it!!
I agree with you. food is culture also. when traveling, nothing better than trying local street foods, as it gives you the reality of a country....
Thanks !!
You make me hungry and no Indian restaurant is open yet! I worked with Indian environment company for some years so some of the food I am familiar with, and I love Indian food. Thank you for sharing.
I'm a simple man with simple tastes when in India, and I find it hard to go past a Masala Dosa or a good Thali.(read cheap)
Yes, tasting is "knowing". (Slurp!)
the very best chicken / mutton awadhi biryani for you only. just come here asap and be my guest.
the roadside steak sandwiches of portugal...are they good...?
enjoy the raid!
got some krupuk?!
that's so sweet of you. you could prepare davidoff's fine aroma ( i'm a loyal fan ) and bring some chicken sausages and pork sandwiches without any guilt - i'm non-veg.
try dosa plaza - the pan-Indian dosa chain which offers ninety-nine varieties of lip-smacking dosas.
thanks for the suggestion.
i bought the houber snack chill mini pretzels online. they were fairly good.
wtf?!
i like the thai rice too. blended with lemon leaves - just awesome!
I will do a print out of this blog and ask them if they can deliver.
