“The fusion dishes gave me pause, but after trying a few of the street food options, appetizers, and drinks I loved it all!
Really love the 1947 chole (pictured) and the other one that's like it but with soft rolls.

Only downside is slightly high prices but for most of the things I tried the portions were great.“
