Hi All,
Returning to blogging about the delicacies of Belgaum after a good 3 years. One thing about leaving a city is, you realize the worth of those little things that were an integral part of your life but did not get the due attention required.
I was at Bangalore for the last 3 years, (Disclaimer: I love Bangalore and do not mean to put down the food at Bangalore, but I'm here to only do some healthy criticism).. I've always been a huge fan of Pani Puri (Gol Gappa), and there is something so heavenly about the Pani Puri at Belgaum (no exaggeration).

For those of you who have devoured over ambika's pani puri, you know it that this post won't say enough.
Some find street food too unhygienic, low quality and "food to get you hospitalized", but as Indians you have a huge advantage of digesting almost anything (yes! Anything!). Your digestive system goes through the most gruesome training over the years. However, the food at ambika is nowhere close to unhygienic (pani puri lovers will know).
A small mobile kitchen (gaadiwala), with chefs( bhaiyya) in uniforms and plastic gloves is what is enough to convince me that this is good hygienic food.
A perfectly made puri, ready to carry a decadent serving of the perfectly spiced and seasoned puri and to play cupid in this love story is finely chopped onion. What's more? You get to decide what pleases your taste buddies, khatta, meetha, kaanda zyaada..anything.
