Chaat is derived from the hindi word चाटना (Chaatna – to lick, as in licking one’s fingers while eating). Chaat Bae by Akhila is my humble attempt to recreate some finger licking south indian street food that I snacked on plenty growing up in Bangalore.

Being away from India, my cravings for chat was satisfied when I visited Akhila’s place. The masala poori and dahi poori that she made definitely bought back memories of the yummy chats that we get back in India. The chats were rich in flavors and tasted authentic, so far the best chats I have eaten in Canada. She even mastered the presentation aspect of the chats to look better than what we get in restaurants. Well, it’s not just chats but everything she makes taste heavenly. Simple dishes like aloo curry, lasagna has something magical when its made by Akhila. She totally nailed the filter coffee she made to keep us awake post 1 am. It tastes better than what we get in authentic South Indian restaurants.

Its been long due since I had great homemade chats in Canada, Akhila changed that. Her magic with Indian spices took a whole new level when she put together masala puri that not only felt authentically local but also home-made.

I tasted Bangalore style chaat for the first time at Akhila’s. It was Masala Puri and it tasted amazing to become one of my favorite. Akhila loves cooking for others and pours her heart into it which always results in yummy dishes.

Akhila’s food is a saving grace for anyone who misses authentic bangalore eats. I have been lucky to taste chaats, pakoras, and many other Indian delicacies that are made with the best ingredients. The satisfaction you get when your taste buds experience the same old flavors of home in a country far far away is beyond words can explain 🙂
