Us homesick Indian expats are constantly in search of anything even remotely homely, aren’t we? Luckily we live in the UAE, home to a myriad of Indian restaurants. That said, India is synonymous with street food and one such food we simply love is Chaat. The hot spicy bhaji served with crunchy onions, slivers of lime and buttery pavs can just make anyone’s mouth water. And, the best bit- a small cafe in Dubai’s Meena Bazaar serves not just one or two, but 10 different varieties of pav bhajis. Drooling already?

And the best bit- the bhaiya here will also serve you extra pav, so that’s a win-win!
Apart from pav bhaji, the cafe also serves a whole lot of other chaat items. From the humble butter toast to Bombay’s favourite vada pav, samosa pav, chilli cheese toast, batata poha, and khandvi, the cafe will instantly transport you to Bombay’s tiny chaat galis.
And, you can also head here for a sumptuous breakfast. The breakfast menu includes a mix of South and North Indian dishes like Vada Pav, samosa pav, idli, upma, dhokla, misal pav, khadi khichdi and much more.
