Finally reached 1090 Chatori Gali/foodies Street. Lucknow most famous street Food hub, first time we also visited, we all are curious to go there.
1. Momos
First item we try is my all time favourite Momos momos become common street food can get anywhere now. Why we attracted to momos first?? just because we watch in insta reel momos sellers was speaking fluent English, that "mad momos, home made momos made up of thin layer flour with stuffed vegetables, servered with badam ki chutney(almond sauce) and Schezwan sauce" we took a full plate of momos, it was surprisingly to see uncle speaking such a good English, he was continuously talking in english with us, I thought that may be by profession he is an teacher, selling momos is his another source of imcome.A plate of 10 vegetarian momos is priced at Rs 100. Now let's talk about momos, momos was seriously superb tasty, i have eaten momos many time, but this momos was totally different, the layers was so thin and taste was delicious. The mouth is full of water while writing this blog..馃い
2. Potato Twister
Tornado potatoes also called twist potatoes, potato swirl, spiral potato, crispy potato on a stick served with mayonnaise, cheese and some spicy herbal, , are a yummy snack popular street food in South Korea but it is rarely avilable in my city or state.
I ordered cheese spiral potato which cost me around $1(rs 80). I can say it was cheap and best. Second time i tried spiral potato, it was crispy spring shaped potato coded with cornflour, served with Tomato sauce and mayonnaise. I really really like it.
3. Water Ball (paani puri)
Pani puri also called as puchka, golgappe, pani ke batashe in different place.Water Ball very common and popular street food of india, you easily get anywhere. Basically, it is a combination of street food recipes made with small puri balls filled with spiced and mashed white matar and specially made varities of spiced water.
These Five red earthen pot(matka) having different flavours of water like jaggery water, green chilli water, garlic water, mint water and Asafoetida water. Every flavour of water has it own aroma and taste, my favourite flavour was garlic.
Do you ever try indian water ball in your country
4. Korean Food- Laphing, Rice Paper Roll, Bao.
There was huge varieties of food, like Baao, sushi - i heard it before but never try it and rice paper rolls, kimkab this items also never heard it before 馃槕 there was lots of food items to try but we ,try our only laphing, veg rice paper roll and veg Baao
#koreanFood #TurkishFood #Vietnamese Food and #TibetanFood was the main attraction of Chatori Gali, first time in Lucknow korean food has been served. All these different countries food available in one stall
About Lahing, how was my experience with it inside fillings was noodles which are cold, flat, and jelly-like yellow outer layer , they're served with a sauce made of vinegar, dried chillies, and soy sauce.
It was most crowded stall we Desi with Korean tadka it was difficult for me to take proper picture.
While we gorge on momos everywhere, there is a Tibetan speciality called "laphing", first time I had the word "Laphing" it was difficult for me to pronounce it correctly馃槣 I tried laphing for the first time, the taste was quite unique; from texture to flavours, everything was totally different for me.The flavour is unusual, and the texture is slick. The noodles themselves have little spicy in taste, but the spices are potent. After eating 2-3 times,it I developed a taste for it and like incredible street food of Chatori Gali.
Rice Paper Roll
Vietnamese Rice paper rolls recipe was made by translucent wrapping sheet, fresh vegetables and herbs inside Rice paper served with two types of sauces. It was delicious and healthy too. I love rice paper roll than Laphing, rice paper roll taste was similar indian taste.
Streamed Cabbage Roll
The lady in the pictures is the owner of stall, it had knowledge of all the food she was serving, i made videos and click some pictures while she was preparing my cabbage roll, i kept on asking everything she was adding to it, she said it is healthy substitution of momos or can say Turkish Momos , the Outer layers was cabbage leaves stuffed with chopped veggies, put in inside streamers for 5 mins. Yes I must say it was healthy and tasty.

4. Fruit Ice-cream
It is Real fruit stuffed Ice-cream/Kulfi
These ice-cream is not usual one we get it from ice-cream parlours. The ice-cream was totally different, i have ordered guava flavour kulfi, the outer shell was guava itself, inside filling was creamy fruit flavour.
The stuffed kulfi is a real fruit, the pulp of which is used in the making of the kulfi Made with 100% natural ingredients. First time tried such type of icecream, must try this in chatori gali.

5. Bubble Korean Drink
it is korean soda beverages with different flavours, add some bubbles (flavours colourful water ball) Boba drink also try first time. It was yummy and refreshing drink.

Banarasi Paan is one of the another allure of Chatori Gali. In india peoples are fond of eating paan at every 3 to hours 馃槣 Getting banarsi paan in your city is just like cherry on a cake.馃ぃ
