Chaat on a Mumbai Beach

Mumbai is India’s economic powerhouse and the cosmopolitan home of Bollywood, the world’s most prolific film industry. The city also epitomizes the subcontinent’s diversity: it has the worst slums in Asia as well as some of the world’s priciest apartments. Frenetically fast-paced, many of its 17 million inhabitants eat on the go – and traditional chaat is the snack of choice.
