Swati Snacks 

Healthy, authentic, hygienic, comfort fare is Asha Jhaveri’s Swati Snacks, catering to Bombay’s tastes for regional Indian cuisine and street food since 1963. Nariman Point is the newest location while Santacruz is home to their recent cloud kitchen. Tardeo, of course, is where we’ve built memories to last.

Start with freshly squeezed sugarcane juice or pudina chaas before wolfing down the steamed pancake in banana leaf, either with chutney or the dal version known as suva panki! Baked Masala Khichdi is comforting, as is Dal Dhokli. Thalipith is a treat of mixed pulses masala roti with spicy pitla and Dhan Shak Bhat is Parsi rice with ghee done just right. Chaat, pizza, falafel, dosas… you’ll find it all at Swati, in healthier avatars. Dessert includes special hand-churned ice-creams and Malai Malpuda that will have you counting the calories. But don’t!
