Hello Fellow Bloggers, 

I am a Mumbai girl living in the US and truly miss my city a lot!!..The crowd, the Sun, the Autorickshaws, even the traffic!!...But most of all, being a foodie, I miss the food of the city....

 

In my tiny apartment kitchen in the US, I try to (among other things) re-create some of my old mumbai favorites...some successfully, like the Batata wada and some, not so much....like the pani puri, which just won't taste the same if its not made by our Pani puri wale Bhaiyya-ji!!!

In my blog, Yumtastic Khana, I am looking at writing about the Mumbai  street foods and places in Mumbai where one can find the best of certain foods...like for example, I LOVE the Mysore Masala Dosas that we get outside Mithibai College in Vile Parle (W)...I hope they still make it the same way!!

Can you guys and Girls help me and tell me more about your favorites and where you think you find the best in Mumbai???

It would be soooo nice to just read about stuff from you all and for someone who is soooo far away from my beloved Mumbai, it would definitely be a way to re-visit some old memories and help me with my post.

Thanks in advance,

Swarali

Wow!!!!!....Some of you really refreshed my memories of stuff like Bhagat Tarachand....all the awesome pure ghee based khana.....There was (I hope still is) a place called Anant Ashram....It was a very basic setup...I think somewhere in Khotachi Wadi (but not sure)....they had an absolutely Yumtastic thali....I remember going there only once and had to actually stand in queue outside this old little building....they had 'bakdas"(benches)..and total unpretentious atmosphere inside....a typical 'khanawal'....but such amazzzzzing food!!!...Does anyone know about this place?? Thank you for your replies...please be more specific about where you get the best or whatever dish you like!! Keep blogging!! :)
