:: ::

In this episode our 2Gs, the Gourmands & Geeks take you on a sweet, sour, crisp and spicy journey. They start with their childhood memories around chaat and move to discuss the history of the dish and it's evolution into contemporary versions. They canvass the beauty and romance of street food, it's cultural importance in a city along with the unfortunate harassment that street food vendors go through to ply their trade. There is Bhel Puri, Gol Gappa (and it's cousins), Daulat ki Chaat and a lot more on the menu.

So take a walk outside your house, put on your earphones and listen to this episode while you look for a chaatwala on your street.
