Vada pav
This homegrown version of the veggie burger has been giving McDonald's a run for its money.
Easy on the wallet and available everywhere, it's probably Mumbai's favorite street snack. Vada pav is a delightful melange of tastes and textures. A plump and warm fried vada (potato patty), crisp on the outside and mushy in the middle, is placed inside a pav (a thick bun) that's been sliced open and smeared with fiery garlic and chili chutney.
For extra punch, semi-fried green chilies are served whole on the side.
Where to try it: Aram Batata Vada, Capital Cinema Building, Opposite CST Station
