Enjoy Mumbai Vada Pav In Rishikesh
Rishikesh is not the first place to come to your mind when you think of Vada Pav. However, this vada pav wala is located in the pristine and calm town of Rishikesh. Usually, whenever you hear the name of this place, the first things you think of are Yoga retreats and meditation centres.
Perched at the Triveni Ghat is a stall that has been selling Mumbai-style vada pavs for the past three years. Arun Kumar, who is the owner of the stall, has carved a niche for himself by selling Mumbai vada pavs in Rishikesh.
He was born and brought up in Lucknow and he travelled to Mumbai for work. There he learned how to make Mumbai-style vadas and continued to work in the city for eight long years. After this, he moved to Rishikesh and opened his very own Vada pav stall and now makes a living by selling them.
