Street food is the true essence of India – spicy, flavourful and so irresistible! It’s hard for an Indian to pass by a food stall without taking in the enticing whiff of delectable Samosas and Aloo Chaats. We are quick to stop by to gorge on our favourite street dishes. Isn’t it? So, if you love Indian Street Food, you are going to relish this yummy post!
This is a special collaborative post, which I have compiled after asking my FACEBOOK FANPAGE readers to share their favourite street foods in India and why they love them so much. Well, some of the readers answered the question plainly without mentioning much, but some of them really expressed the ‘yumminess’ of their favourite street food with lots of gusto.
So enjoy the delicious post prepared by my wonderful Facebook Fans –

Chole Bhature
I love them, because I consider them as complete food when I am hungry. Chole Bhature is something I can still try even when I am not hungry. These food items tempt me to try and enjoy their flavours. – Vishal Grover

Sev puri
Sev puri for the mix of flavours and textures. Gobi for the spice and yummy taste. And dosa for the crispness and the chutney. And street food in general because it is delicious and offers fantastic opportunities to people-watch while you eat, forgot about shawarma also — because it’s the best thing to eat after a few drinks! – Veena Rangaswami

Spicy aaloo sabji and crispy kachodis
I love the spicy aaloo sabji and crispy kachodis that are sold at breakfast time at various points across Delhi. There are some good points for the same such as Chandni Chowk near Paranthe wali gali, Old Hanuman Mandir near Yamuna and a few more. I also love golgappe. – Praveen Gupta
