Tickle Your Taste Buds With Fast Food of Ahmedabad

With the changing lifestyle of young population, the fast food industry in India has evolved at a quicker pace. Who has not taken a bite of burger in his car on the way to home from late night meeting or not got a take-away meal packed for kids n family to surprise them ;) I mean this is the story of almost every household including mine. I relish fast food like anything; be it sandwiches, noodles or a dessert..But however modern I am, when I crave for authentic Indian flavours, then Gujarati food takes the limelight :) Gujarati cuisine varies so amazingly in flavours, spices, ingredients, as well as the region of Gujarat to which they belong that your heart yearns to taste them all :)

And you know that among all regions of Gujarat, the bustling city of Ahmedabad has a wholesome range of fast food to offer... The fast food in Ahmedabad is a true amalgamation and exquisite blend of flavors where sweet notes dominate most preparations. Most of the snacks (nasto) are made with Gram Flour, so are rich in nutritional content too.

One of the much-loved mouth watering snacks in Ahmedabad Khandvi is my favourite when these cute rolls seasoned with sautéed sesame seeds and mustard melt in my mouth satiating my deepest lust for yummy snack. 

Yet another soft n spongy snack of Ahmedabad that is prepared with similar ingredients like Khandvi is Dhokla. I seriously can eat it anytime even when I had tummy-full of my food ;) This sweet-n-tangy, easy to digest, steamed snack cannot be missed at any cost.

Hey, since summers have already started showing its true colors; let me not forget that sweet n spicy mix of curd cooked with besan to make Gujarati Kadhi is the best escape from heat due to its cooling properties.

No other tea-time snack can beat the taste of crispy and crunchy Chakali twisted in spirals that makes it one of the most savoury snack for kids too.

I still remember myself feeling amazed when I first saw Khakhra and refused to eat it considering it as a 'sookhi roti'. But now as I know the uniqueness of this delicious snack, I know how this flattened preparation is enjoyed with variety of pickles and chutneys from the region.

I know I'm making you feel hungry while reading this post. So if you are wondering where to land exactly to emerge yourselves in irresistible aroma of palate-pleasing Ahmedabadi fast food, you can locate the nearby restaurants in Ahmedabad that guarantee bona fide taste to their customers :)

For those who have visited Ahmedabad, I am eager to know what snack you liked the most. Do share your experience.
