Street DeLiGhTs!


 I was  told a guy here at the ram leela maidaan in derabassi  sells delicious dosa on a rehri and i must try it.. south indian has always been boring and complex form of of food..i simply hate use of folks and knives.      
But,street food has always been an attraction, partially because its cheap, and partially because the delightful additives  that we pretend avoid at our places…but guess the best part !  I need not be careful of the surroundings,I can discount all the sophistication and let the glutton inside go insane…So what! everybody does..As soon i entered the crowded open ground bhind the dera bassi bus stand, to my amaze there were so many rehris offering different cuisines of food...south indian,chinese,punjabi,veg non veg,juices of all kinds , and many more.......
We stopped at the dinesh famus dosa...a south indian guy who was so well coordinated with his actions stood on the other side..he could prepare 7 dosas in a few seconds...and he succesfully gathered the max crowd at his stall...i ordered a dosa that cost a 20 rs, and withinn minutes my order was placed..  i took the first bite  and that very moment i  decided  this was the best dosa i hve ever had...Of all the sagar n ratnaa,sundarams,ratnams and some other popular south eating dens in the city..i hve been to everywhere..but this was surely the best..
i couldnt help myself visiting sme other rehris near by...n that too were  enjying some descent bussiness..i tried veg  momos...( once again the est i ever had) a kathi kabab,cheese chilly and then a glass of fruit juice..
Believe me, by default the ambience was so full of  energy as many college students stopped at that very time in the ground..the ram leela maidaan was so overflowing with people  as if each one of them  didn’t hve food in yrs…
And yes, the fancy names do add to their charm..dinesh paapular dosa,bombay chat wala, chinese fastest food apna burger...etc etc..
it’s the most unhygienic delight..order , enjoy and burp!!!
Baaki dekhi jaegi…
