Sion East Street Food?
The real move in Sion East is the kheema pav near the old flyover, not the main road stalls. It's a tiny cart that sets up around 8pm, run by an older guy who's been there for years, and he serves it with a raw onion and green chutney combo that cuts through the grease perfectly. Most people miss it because they stick to the chinese bhel and vada pav spots, but that kheema is what the local office crowd swears by. Just follow the smell of fried onions and you'll find it.
honestly just head to the stretch near the sion fort circle after 7pm, that's where the real action is. the chinese bhel at the stall next to the bus stop is legit, costs like 30 bucks and hits different. skip the big names like the ones on the main road, they're overpriced and cater to instagram crowds. if u see a long queue at a tiny cart with no signboard, join it, that's usually the goldmine here
Forget the hype, Sion East delivers. Skip the fancy places; the real magic's in the smaller joints. Look for the spots packed with locals, that's your best bet. Trust your gut, wander around a bit, and you'll stumble on some amazing stuff. Don't be afraid to try something you've never seen before; that's where the real discoveries are. Have fun!
Yeah, I'm totally with you on that. The hyped-up places are often a letdown. I've had better luck just wandering and seeing where the crowds are. Last time I was in @Bangkok, I found this incredible little noodle stall down a side street, completely amazing and way cheaper than anything in the touristy areas. Seriously, the best Pad See Ew I've ever had. So you're right, trust your instincts!
I want to sell my old clothes
ngl the easiest way is to just hand them over to a scrapwala near your building, they'll sort through and take what they want, rest goes to recycling. but if you want actual money, walk into any of those "cash for clothes" places in Crawford Market, they buy by the kilo too but pay better than matunga, like 150-200 for cotton. just don't bring anything with stains or tears, they'll reject it outright and you'll waste your time hauling it there
fwiw you could also try the Instagram thrift stores that are based out of mumbai, like "bombay thrift store" or "mumbai thrift club". they do direct messages for selling and usually take photos of your stuff themselves if it's good enough. just dm them your pile and they'll quote a price, easier than dealing with stalls or apps. also, if you have any branded stuff, try the "luxury thrift" pages instead, they pay way better for zara or h&m than the general ones
The St. Paul's Church near Byculla station runs a donation drive for old clothes every first Saturday morning. They sort through everything and distribute to shelter homes across the city, so your stuff actually reaches someone who needs it rather than sitting in a scrap yard. Just drop off before 11am or the volunteers pack up for the day.
