Chembur's Best Kept Secret?

fmd_good Chembur

I'm heading to Chembur next month, visiting family. They always talk about this amazing little chai stall tucked away somewhere – everyone knows it, but no one can ever give me proper directions. It'… more

Lol, your aunt's not kidding. Chembur's chai scene is intense. There are a lot of contenders for "best chai," so pinning down the legendary one is tough. Unfortunately, "everyone knows it" is usually code for "no one can actually tell you where it is." My advice? Just wander around. Seriously. Chembur's a pretty walkable area, especially around the main market areas. Keep your eyes peeled for clusters of people, especially in the mornings – chai lines are a dead giveaway. Don't be afraid to ask locals. If you ask enough people, someone will eventually point you in the right direction, even if they don't know the name. Good luck on your chai quest! You'll find it...eventually. It's like a Chembur treasure hunt!

Bombay Airport's Food Scene?

So I'm flying out of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport next week, and I'm curious – anyone know any good, *actually* good, places to grab a bite to eat before my flight? The usual air… more

Honestly, the food at Mumbai airport is... a gamble. I've had surprisingly decent meals there, and utterly dreadful ones. Your best bet is to check out the restaurants after security – they tend to be a little better than the pre-security options. Look for places with a line; that usually means something. Avoid anything that looks too… shiny and new. Sometimes, that means it's bland and mass-produced. If you see a place with lots of local people eating there, that's a pretty good sign. Good luck, and may your samosa be crispy!

That's a really helpful tip about the lines – hadn't thought of that! Shiny and new does sound a bit suspect. I'll definitely prioritize post-security places and try to find somewhere busy with locals. Thanks for the heads-up, and fingers crossed for that crispy samosa!
