India is a vibrant country known for its spicy curries, sizzling street food, rich culture and heritage. On our recent trip to India we visited; Gujerat, Delhi, Agra & Mumbai. We managed to try various foods and the following dishes were the highlights of our journey that we most definitely recommend. Also, the food in India is incredibly cheap!

Cost: Approx 60 INR for 6

Vada Pav
Another popular street food consisting of a deep fried spicy potato dumpling placed inside a soft bun and served with a sweet and spicy chutney.
