When I was small mom used to take us out to eat chats. Mostly near Juhu which was our all time favorite. I love all kind of chats very difficult to name one chat 😉 seriously Mumbai has great chat joints. However in Pune you get good chats at Ramkrishna hotel on M.G. Road their pani puris are just amazing.
My mouth is watering talking about chats even post having my dinner. Looking forward to make more Mumbai Chat’s. As my hubby also love all kind of chats and even my readers 🙂 🙂
