Mumbai Chaat Blockhouse Bay - Auckland

I enjoyed eating, that was complete potluck, as I couldn't understand the menu, except to googeln any article for English descriptions: I was back there and enjoyed it again. cheap and cheerful back and forth.

This little place is number 3 on my fave eateries in aukland, the other two are ras vatika, and rasoi, and they are not in the order of preference, its number 3, because its my recent discovery. Eating is faultless, thali, armi, idli as good as I otherwise had much more on the menu like dosa, uthapam and sortiment of appetizers and snacks. gastfreundschaft in full and prices to meet the moderator of the budgets.

Yummy food, great value for money. Ordered the classic thali and the South Indian platter. Curries were delicious and generous portions. The Masala chai was also delicious and will definitely be back to try their sweets. Their palak paneer is also a must try. Interior isn’t beautiful but the food makes up for it

Really blown away from my experience here the staff were helpful guiding my limited knowledge of chaat in selecting options for takeaway and every dish traveled well, was flavorsome, fun and interesting. Highly recommend.

Mumbai Chaat is based in Sandringham. The restaurant itself doesn’t have its own parking however there is a public parking lot across the road and plenty of off street parking around. The customer service at Mumbai was good, interior decor tidy however it does look a tad run down so it could probably do with a bit of a clean and lick of paint. I only ordered a Dahi Puri but I plan to go back and try different chaats after some research so I know what to order. They have a variety of chaat and foods to choose from a menu board. You get 6 Dahi Puris for $8.90 which to me is an affordable price. It tasted just as good as the video I saw. The puri (puff casing) was light and crispy, inside the puri had a tiny cube of curried potato and a generous dallop of curd (yoghurt). Sprinkled on top was sev (chickpea noodle), tamarind chutney, green chutney and fresh coriander. The little snack is just a marriage of flavours which go so well. I loved the tanginess from the curd, the sweetness from the tamarind chutney and the fresh herb flavour from coriander and green chutney. You got a tiny kick of spice from the curried potato and then the crispiness from the sev adds texture to the chaat while the puri just brings the whole snack together. I definitely recommend stepping out of your comfort zone and trying this snack and restaurant to anyone wanting to see a different side to Indian Cuisine from butter chicken!
