Mumbaikars love their street food and that is evident in the fact that not even the rains can dissuade them from enjoying a steaming vada or samosa pav or from simply enjoying ‘bhajiyas’ with a spicy chutney. However, with the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic many people have avoided eating outside. Come monsoon season and the numbers further reduce even further from those who enjoy eating outside. 

What does one do in such cases when cravings are at peak levels and the rains ask us for nothing more than to enjoy a cup of hot chai and deep-fried snacks. The pandemic has certainly made a lot more people enjoy home-cooked food and making deep-fried food isn’t too hard either.
