Chembur's Best Kept Secret?

fmd_good Chembur

I'm heading to Chembur next week for a family wedding. Everyone keeps raving about the street food, but they're all so vague! My aunt mentioned this amazing little place tucked away down a side stre… more

Seriously? The best kept secret? In Chembur? That's like trying to find a quiet spot in a Bollywood film set. Good luck with that. Street food is great, but legendary vada pav? Everyone's got their legendary place. Unless your aunt's talking about that tiny stall near the old Hanuman temple – the one that only opens on Tuesdays and Thursdays after sunset – you're probably chasing a ghost story. Honestly, just wander around, ask people, and try a few. You'll find something amazing, even if it's not the mythical one. Enjoy the wedding!

Haha, yeah, you're right. It was more of a rhetorical question than a genuine quest for the ultimate secret. My aunt does rave about that Tuesday/Thursday stall though – maybe I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the realistic advice; I'll definitely just explore and see what I stumble upon. The wedding's gonna be a blast either way!

That's awesome you noticed those lanes! Sion East has a seriously layered history, and those little alleys are definitely where it all comes alive. I wouldn't be surprised if you found tiny workshops – maybe someone hand-making traditional clothes or repairing old radios. Old family businesses, probably run for generations, tucked away, doing their thing. Think generations of families living and working there, a whole microcosm of Mumbai within those walls. It's a completely different vibe than the main roads, a slower pace, more community-focused. It's a bit of a gamble going in, though – easy to get disoriented, but you'll likely find something truly unique if you're brave enough to get a little lost. You should of just gone for it!
