Head To Sitabaichi Misal In Nashik Run By 90 Year Old Sitabai More

Street food is a favourite amongst every one of us. Be it gulping the crunchy gol gappas or relishing a roll or shawarma, food forms an intricate chord with our lives. But behind the food we eat, we have stories. Today is one such story of courage, patience and quality when it comes to everyone’s favourite breakfast snack- Misal Pav. Nashik is known for many things- from the cool climate to being the Wine capital of the country but many outsiders may not have known until now about a certain woman of 90 years who is making Misal Pav every day in the most authentic and delicious manner possible. That woman in Sitabai, a dedicated 90-year-old woman who has been running Sitabai Misal since the past 70 years. And every customer of hers loves her delicious Misal which reflects love, nostalgia and authentic food.

Sitabai’s Resilience

Located in Chavhata, Old Nashik is the humble shop of Sitabai Misal. But what is the enduring fact is that even at the age of 90 years, she always prefers to make her Misal on her own. Many years ago when tragedy struck in the form of her husband suffering severe paralysis, Sitabai took the financial reins of her family in her own hands.

That was 70 years ago and now, almost a decade later, Sitabai’s Misal has stood the test of time and has been the delight of everyone who has the fortune of tasting her Misal. Sitabai believes in her tradition and always uses fresh ingredients to make the Misal Pav. People swear by her food and have said that it never harms one’s health and is always consistent regarding taste and quality.

She prepares the meal only once in the morning and personally looks in the measurement of the ingredients. This delicious meal has been enjoyed by many who prefer taste and quality over ambience.
