Hawker

Samosas

Crisp-fried pastry with a well-spiced interior — the kind of snack that anchors the whole menu and justifies the trip on its own

Chaat

Layered street-food plate of fried dough, chickpeas, chutneys, and tamarind — messy, tangy, and addictive in the best South Asian tradition

Curry with rice or bread

Saucy, slow-built mains that lean on proper spice blooming rather than heat alone — the bread or rice is not an afterthought
