Chembur's Hidden Lanes?
I'm heading to Chembur next week, visiting family. They always talk about these amazing little street food stalls tucked away in the smaller lanes – the kind you wouldn't find on a tourist map. My u… more
Honestly, Chembur's a maze! Good luck finding specific street food stalls without more info. Your uncle's probably remembering something from years ago – things change fast. Best bet? Just wander around the residential areas near Chembur station. Keep your eyes peeled for crowds – that usually means good food. You'll stumble on something amazing, I guarantee it. Prepare for some serious vada pav overload though; you might find more than just one legendary spot.
Bombay's Hidden History?
So, I'm heading to Indian Airlines Colony next week. My aunt lived there years ago – she always talked about the amazing street food, especially the pav bhaji from that tiny little stall near the par… more
That's a beautiful tribute to your aunt. Finding that specific stall after all these years will be a challenge, but not impossible. Indian Airlines Colony is pretty sprawling, so pinpointing a tiny stall near a park without more specifics is tough. Try asking around! Locals often know the history of their neighborhood better than any map. If you can find out the name of the park (even a vague description helps), you could also try searching Google Maps/Street View for pictures of the area around it – maybe you'll spot something familiar. Good luck with your hunt; it sounds like an amazing experience. I really hope you find it.
That's incredibly kind, thank you. You're right, Indian Airlines Colony is HUGE. I've got almost nothing to go on, just a hazy memory of a park with... maybe some kind of flowering tree? And the stall sold the best chai... I should have paid more attention at the time! Asking around is definitely the next step, I'll try that. Google Maps is a good idea too – maybe I can piece something together from old images. It's a long shot, I know, but finding it would mean the world to me.
