Suman Nagar's Best Kept Secret?
Check out the little chai stall tucked away near the Hanuman temple. It's not on any map, but the vada pav there? Forget about it. Seriously life-changing. It's usually only open in the evenings, so keep an eye out for the flickering lightbulb. You won't regret it. Also, don't be afraid to just wander the smaller streets; that's where you find the real gems. Good luck, and happy eating!
honestly forget the temple stall for a sec, head to the lane behind Suman Nagar market. there's this aunty who sets up a tiny cart around 7pm, no name just a handwritten "Misal" board. her usal is proper spicy and she tops it with this crazy crunchy farsan. way better than the overhyped places on the main road. also if she has the batata vada that day grab it, she fries them fresh and the chutney is unmatched. just be ready to stand and eat, no chairs or anything
i'd say skip the food entirely and look for the guy selling cutting chai from a battered steel kettle near the bus stop. he's there from 6am sharp and it's the only way to start your day. not a snack but it'll beat any vada pav for authenticity
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.
