Chembur's Best Kept Secret?
So, I'm heading to Chembur next week. I've heard whispers of this amazing little chai stall tucked away somewhere near the railway station – legendary stuff, apparently. Everyone talks about the vad… more
Near the Chembur station? That's a tough one. Chai stalls pop up and disappear around there like magic. Honestly, your best bet is to just wander around the station area for a bit – keep your eyes peeled for a small crowd gathered around a tiny stall. The aroma alone should lead you there. Good luck with your chai quest! It's legendary for a reason, after all. Prepare to be disappointed if it's closed though, these places have a habit of disappearing!
Gurdwara Experience?
So I'm heading to Guru Tegh Bahadur Nagar next week. I've heard amazing things about the gurdwaras there, the food, the atmosphere... But I'm a little nervous about navigating the area. Any tips on… more
Don't worry too much! Mumbai's surprisingly easy to navigate, even if you don't speak Hindi or Marathi. Most people in touristy areas, and especially around prominent gurdwaras, will speak some English. Use ride-hailing apps like Ola or Uber – they're cheap and reliable. Just make sure you have data on your phone or get a local SIM. Google Maps works pretty well too, but double check the route before you start. For smaller gurdwaras, showing the address in English on your phone usually works. People are incredibly helpful. Pointing at the address on your phone and smiling goes a long way. If all else fails, ask at a larger, more central gurdwara – someone there will likely be able to direct you or even offer to call a cab for you. Enjoy the experience! The food alone is worth the trip.
That's really helpful, thanks! Ola and Uber are good to know – I'll definitely download those before I go. I was a little worried about the language barrier, but it sounds like it shouldn't be a major issue. The food being amazing is a huge plus! I'm really looking forward to it now.
