CHIT CHAAT - A FOOD TOUR THROUGH KALBADEVI
An integral part of the old Bombay Native bazaars of the 19th century, Kalbadevi still retains its heady character. Home to century old markets, religious monuments, homes and institutions, the area is a constant surprise as you explore it.
What fascinates us here though, is the food! It gives us a rare insight into people and the strong community culture that still exists.
The street food of Kalbadevi is an homage to the business community. It’s delicious, packed with flavours, easy on the stomach and very innovative. This walking tour helps you and your taste buds explore a unique street food experience and culture that often goes unnoticed, but is inherently Mumbai!
Come join us for a 9 course meal. We promise you for a fun couple of hours of eating an exploring. We’ll stop and marvel at some beautiful buildings in the area that have stood the test of time, including one that was home to Opium trade (has got to be our fav story too)
So join us and we promise you a great time and a full, satisfied stomach.
P.S: this is a pure vegetarian walk
Highlights of the walk
- Eat this dish with your heart out, or as we say “Kha-man”! But with a twist
- From Kalbadevi to Kalwa, everyone loves this cool Halwa
- This is our favourite fix, with 56 spices in the mix!
- Started in 1968 and still not out of fashion, the next one is all about Besan
- A papad (not papdi) chaat, that looks like a piece of colourful art.
- The shop is over 100 years old, but the taste of this stuffed fried disk is still banging and bold.
- A Sindhi sandwhich so nice, you’ll probably say Vadi Sai! (You didn’t get the pun? We’ll just leave a deep sigh!)
- This duo has a sexy lafda (affair), it’s Mumbadevis famous Jalebi and Fafda
