Continuing my story about Mumbai I would tell you about street food which is very famous here.
While eating in Mumbai one can have all delicacies in top end hotels or restaurants but if you want to taste the real tasty stuff come to the streets. There are some very good places where the food is hygenic.
Khaoo galli - literally means food street and it has food stalls lined up on both sides of the lane serving variety of food items. Its near Churchgate station and it has mainly vegetarian food.
Juhu beach or Chowpatty beach - There are many stalls right on the beach serving numerous snack items.
Mohammed Ali road - down at South Mumbai area it serves mainly non vegetarian delicacies.
Elco restaurant at Bandra west has best street food available and my personal favorite is Dahi papdi chaat.
Kailash Parbat Hindu hotel at Colaba and Andheri and in many malls across the city have very good snack items.

So what exactly is street food here. They are mainly vada pav, pav bhaji, bhelpuri, pani puri, ragda pattis, sandwiches, variety of dosas and idlis. Street food in India is very cheap but tasty however do consider about the hygiene part before you have these delicacies.

Street food is the best when it comes to India. No place in the world can give such tasty street food. And as my Bhaiya used to say, the more the dirty roadside, the better tasty food you get. ;)
