Street food in Pune

Ever since I first snuck out in the evening to eat pani puri on the streets of Bangalore I’ve been a lover of Indian street food. The hand painted carts, the flavours, warm nights, the efficiency employed to prepare food in such a small space – this all appeals – but above all it’s the dedication to preparing one dish, over and over again, to perfection. Little has changed since Bangalore 25 years ago; I’m still mad about Indian street food – and it still satisfies – only now the vendors have mobile phone numbers and I can phone ahead my order – or ask for a delivery! Watch out for update number 2 (and 3, and 4) I’m just getting started on this topic! – Fi

My Pune favourite; Dabeli (a toasted bun with a veg tamarind, crunchie, cheesy filling that simply rocks)

Audrey loves her mixed juices from this guy. Sweet lime juice is another refreshing favourite

Just to be clear, that's chocolate on the inside and the outside and grated on top!
