Street food!

I'm a foodie. Food excites me. And what excites me even more than swanky food in swanky restaurants is street food! Food is becoming increasingly innovative-you have indianised chinese and chinese-ised indian. Frankies, dosas, chaat- you name it, there's going to be something new and wacky to try. The latest on the list is baked vada pav! For those who don't know, a vada pav is a yummy fried batata vada (full of potato) put between a bun, sometimes with hot n sweet chutneys (heaven!). But this new vada pav, introduced to me by a friend of mine- is just too good. They've eliminated the fried batter around the batata and have put it directly into a round bun with garlic and sweet sauce. Now a combination of all that- piping hot, is an absolute treat! Especially on an empty stomach after a long day at school. But of all street foods, my unbeaten favourite is pani puri. The hot ragda, the sweet imli chutney and the icy-cool, spicy pani filled into a nice, big, round puri is sheer genius! Brilliance like none other! No variations with this classic food for me, thank you...you just don't mess with perfection.
