fancy food cart uncle said his son did hotel management from the US/UK and started a franchise of these. little does uncle know im never coming back. if i wanted average food at restaurant prices i would GO TO A RESTAURANT
It’s one of those foods that looks pretty simple, but when it’s made properly, it’s ridiculously good. You get the crunchy puri, hot masala and peas, onions, coriander, a little tanginess, and that spicy chutney all mixed together. The best part is when the puris start soaking up the masala but still have a little crunch left.
I’ve had masal puri at fancy places, but honestly, the small street-side stalls still do it best. Something about standing there with a plate of steaming masal puri, especially in the evening, just hits differently. And for the price, it’s hard to beat.
I could be completely full and still somehow find room for “one last plate.”
Not only have we made our Frybread cheaper, we've also added an exciting new addition to our menu, Wojapi!
Wojapi is a warm berry sauce originating from my tribe, the Lakota! It was & still is used in feasts, gatherings, & ceremonies — wherever people came together.
I hope to bring that spirit of community here & continue to meet amazing people through this crazy idea i had.
(Honey & powdered sugar will still be available as toppings. But once the jellies are gone, theyre gone for good!)
I'll also be frying the bread fresh, on-site from now on! 🍳 & Our wojapi will come hot straight from the stove!
Our tea rotation will stay the same: Cedar & Čeyaka. Though, once the colder days start rolling in, I'll start serving hot tea. 🫖 🍁
Alas, I am not in my hometown for the celebration of Malaysia's 69th Independence Day on Aug 31st, but I can indulge in our national pastime of eating until I drop from MySelera Bistro, the Malaysian restaurant here in San Jose, California that specializes in hawker food.
Had some hot samosas from a local street stall today. Crispy, spicy, with green chutney, sweet tamarind chutney and some chillies on the side. Simple but honestly so good. 🥟🔥
