Yummy chana masala tray - Edit
There were plenty of options for vegans at Seven Dials market, but this place caught my eye when I saw other customers carrying their curry trays. I had the chana masala which came with a small portion of rice, some daal, some salad and naan. Service was friendly and the food arrived quickly. Whilst I thoroughly enjoyed it, my partner had to help me finish it (I love any sort of bread and filled myself up on the generous naan portion)!

Mumbai street food challenging the London Indian giants … - Edit
Popped through Cucumber Alley in the Seven Dials Market, for bite to eat in the lively hustle and bustle of KERBs independent food mega-gastronomic wonderland. With so much choice for a vegan 🌱 it’s a great spot when you’re not sure what you want, because there so much variation.
Read moreSamosa Chat £5.50. Okay so it’s not all fancy and refined as Benares, Dishoom or Masala Zone but it’s a street food venue and it’s a shaving of the cost of those places too. So how would the taste measure up to the giants? It’s the first time I’ve had Samosa broken up in a dish but it meant it could be eaten with a spoon. The samosa was great and it was served in a shallow metal dish the size of a large tea plate. Filled with ragas (yellow pea curry) it provided a filling meal with a nice level of heat. In amongst it was a trio of chutneys which gave lift to balance the dish. Scattered and grilled across the top was a crunchy sev delivering the texture it needed with a pomegranate seed scattering for decoration. All in all, it was a very tasty, uncomplicated, well-balanced Samosa Chaat that I can imagine would have been served on the streets of Mumbai decades ago in a paper poke. £ for £ it certainly measured up to those London Indian giants.
Vada Pav - Mumbai Burger £5.50. This was a first for me. Reading the menu it’s described as a gram flour fried potato dumpling in a tender Pav bread roll with a trio of chutneys. Having had gran flour (or Besan which is chickpea / Chana) dumplings, I knew what to expect but how fried? The dumpling was a gently fried ball bursting with favour as they’d added spices to it. It wasn’t greasy or over-fried, but just enough to get it hot and give it a crispy edge. I wouldn’t have described the pav as tender, but it was a perfectly dense, soft and doughy warm bread. What made it for me was the pairing with chutneys. As you bite into it and your teeth make their way though the soft bread and it’s comforting, then the complexity of the chutneys punching flavour into the shell of the dumpling give it flavour, before the mashed-potato-like thick dumpling fills your mouth. The combination was gentle, subtle and unassumingly comforting. There is a single chilli which is pickled and by biting this you get a massive heat explosion too. I had half subtle and half hot. I loved both and I’m taking friends back for this dish.
Would I recommend it? Of course. It’s Mumbai street food star of London.
Would I go back? I’ve got 5 course to try next
Pros: Great Indian street food , Fast service, So cheap for what you get
