8 Reasons Why Street Food Is The Best!

, TNN | Sep 30, 2014, 05.53 PM IST
India is a country where there is no dearth of street food. Be it pav-bhaji, bhel puri or kala-khatta, there's something for everyone! Here are 8 reasons why we all love it so much as our pick-me-up snack.


1. It's so damn cheap.
Street food is as light on your pocket as it is heavy on your stomach, and that means that you can get a lot of it for very little. This makes it the perfect broke-time-of-the-month meal!

2. It's made in front of you
There is a certain joy in watching your meal being made right in front of your eyes. Watching it being built layer by layer with toppings and garnishes adds to the relishing enjoyment when it finally comes to you!

3. Scope for improvisation
You can easily ask the vendor to alter your proportion of spices to the amount that suits you just right. Street food gives you the option of saying, "bhaiyya, thodi mirch aur, thoda nimbu aur."

4. Second helpings!
Run out of kulcha? Want some gol gappe ka paani? No problem! All you need to do is ask the vendor, and he will happily fulfill your request until the time that you are satisfied.

5. It fills your soul
Street food doesn't go down easy. It keeps you belching and full for hours, so you're safe from those deadly hunger pangs for a good long while!

6. Tummy upset? No problem!
Because of it's reputation, a stomach upset claim will easily get you off work the next day. Nobody can argue with a volatile stomach, after all!

7. It's never the same anywhere else
If you have ever tried to replicate a chatpata chaat at home, you'll know what we mean. No matter what you do, it is impossible to outdo the flavours that the street thela men can add to the same dish.

8. Unavoidable charm
Street food's alluring smell and tangy taste will capture you no matter how hard you might try to avoid it. Because if you don't fancy one, there will always be another in the same lane that will lead you to salivate and surrender to its power!
