Before any of it there was this. Bateta vada is the street food of Mumbai, eaten at every corner, every hour, by everyone. A spiced potato filling encased in a crisp chickpea batter, fried golden and served hot. It is one of the great snacks of the world. Unpretentious, deeply satisfying, and the kind of thing that once you've had it properly you spend the rest of your life measuring every other version against. We make ours the way it should be made. Perfectly flavoured with a hint of tang, salt, green chilly, curry leaves and a special ingredient! Our spice mix. The filling is built from scratch. The batter is seasoned. The frying is done at the right temperature for long enough to get the crust right. Nothing is rushed and nothing is skipped. This is the snack that reminds you why street food exists.
