Mister Chai, Shangri-La Eros Food Review: Witness The Richness of Indian Street Food at One Stop

Mister Chai Food Review: India is rich in both culture and food and we believe it also binds different culture with burst of flavors. The various tastes that country brings forth will leave you aghast. From sweet tooth, sour to everything tangy, one can experience all these tastes at one place and that is at the newly launched pop-up restaurant Mister Chai at Shangri-La Eros, New Delhi. It serves the firsthand experience of richness of different regional street foods. From butter chicken samosa to kolkata chop, Mister Chai knows the art of blending, mixing and serving the fusion of all the above in a modern way. Mister Chai is a unique concept that is curated to give patrons a local ‘tea shop’ feel.Also Read – Pllatos Air Bar in Delhi is Perfect For Your ‘Little Little’ Parties

Butter Chicken Samosa: Capturing the essence right is the butter chicken samosa. The tangy flavour hits the right taste palette and it will leave you wanting for more. They got the crispy crux of samosa right. The minute you break it, the optimum amount of filling will ease. However, what disappointed us was the name as it didn’t give justice to ‘Butter Chicken’. If you are a meethi chutney lover, then do insert an injection shot on your samosa. You can also dip it in a tangy and chilli pudhina chutney.

Sprouts Bhel: Bhel Puri is the heart of Indian street food. The tiny ingredients in a bowl play a huge part in bringing the essence of bhel out. Keeping it healthy as well as bazaari, Mister Chai brings in the combination. With the right amount of sweet, chilli, salty, tanginess, Mister Chai’s bhel is a must try and we would like to visit again for it.

Raj Kachori: If you are looking for a burst of flavour dish, their raj kachori has to be your go-to. They served raj kachori in a desi style with dahi (curd) which was neither too sour nor too sweet. Excess of anything is bad and they know the perfect taste to serve the curd. Raj kachori is something that has been a part of Indian street food and foodies can’t let go of it when they stroll a street full of food. Mister Chai’s Raj kachori will satisfy you to the brim and will leave you wanting for more.

Kolkata Chop: With richness also comes authenticity and keeping that in mind, they did a good job of bringing the authentic Kolkata Street food. The Kolkata chop plays a reminisce of those old Kolkata street filled with the aroma of chop. The chop had a fine mixing of spices, beetroot, peanuts and potato. Mister Chai did a good job of retaining the flavour and not letting go of the authenticity.

From snacks to beverages, Mister Chai serves a plethora of choices. If you are looking for a place to witness the richness of Indian street food, Mister Chai can be tried.
