After a long time I finally back, thanks to covid 19 for restricting me to go out & crave outside food. Untill November 2020, I was literally stuffed with home made food. November 2020, I went to Pune to meet my relatives. Finally I visited this city which adored the name "Punya Nagari", after 3 years.
I was excited to taste some Vada pav, few Gujarat as well as Rajasthani snacks in this city along with my cousin who just turned 18. He told me that "Bhai! Let's go to this legendary eatery point which serves one of the best Misal pav."
I was too excited, my uncle warned me that it would be Very spicy, but I love these spicy food like hell & I told him "Don't worry! Apun ko spicy food se dushmani hona mushkil hi nahin, na mumkin hain!" 🤣
Trust me, at 8 AM, me being a authentic south indian who eats Idly, Dosé, upma, or dishes made of beaten rice. I was about to have a food that is never considered as breakfast in South India. My cousin started his bike, Pulsar 150. One of the dangerous bikes I have ever driven.
In 10 minutes after some crazy bike riding, we reached one of the gully in Chinchwad gaon.
Newale Misal, which was written on the board.
There was none when we entered this small yet compact eatery point. We ordered each one plate of Misal pav for us. My cousin was really unsure about my love towards spicy food & he requested the waiter for medium spiced version. My cousin told me "bhai! If it's too spicy don't worry, we will go to other place."
"Ruko Zara sabhar karo!" I replied.
Within 3 minutes we got our share of Misal. I took the first bite, my stomach was expecting it would receive something sweets, Alas! Misal pav came out of the syllabus & I coughed. My cousin asked "kya bhai? Maza aaya?"
Don't worry kiddo, this is just the first bite. Wait & watch!!
Let me tell you Misal pav is the step brother of Pav bhaji. Here pav bun is the only common factor, instead of bhaji made of various vegetables. You guys get a spicy gravy of sprouts, with abundant amount of spices, topped with onions and Farsan along with a slice of lemon. For a first timer who is tasting Misal don't dare to ask the tarri, which is a spicy yet oily sauce which is poured to the Misal, the tarri is the spiciness enhancer.
Price for a plate of Misal pav is 80 Rs & you can take extra pav by paying 8 Rs for 2 Pav.
Overall, this experience of having the spiciest breakfast in Chinchwad, the suburb of Pune was in the next level. I must thank my cousin for taking me to this wonderful place.
Before leaving, I had a glass of Solkadhi. A very popular drink of the Konkan belt of Maharashtra.
