Pancham Puriwala, Fort (CST Station)


Pancham Puriwala stands out with its simplicity, great legacy and a basic food - Puri Bhaji. This legendary food joint is just near the CST station.

I would rate this legendary place 4 out of 5. It because of my religious loyalty to this appetite stirring Puri Bhaji. This place is always crowded with people and you can expect waiting and sharing the tables, but never the less service is very quick. Another USP of this place is their remarkable pricing and absolute value for money Thali's, making it a perfect place for pocket-friendly eats.











There is nothing called ambience at this place, this place is all about Food and Taste
Special Thali - Sweet dish, papad, rice & Chaas missing.

Food - I prefer to opt for Pancham Special thali.  It comes with 3 sabzi's, Kadi pakoda and 4 masala puris + Rice & a sweet dish. Worth mentioning the mirchi and nimbu pickle.

PS - Don't dare to try their thali if you have a small appetite

I’m extremely excited to mention their ‘strawberry mint julep’ – it is mindful blend of fresh strawberry, fine chopped mint and their organic colours. The aroma of strawberry and mint entices your taste buds and refreshes your senses, making it a worthy drink for that ambience!

Followed by Limited Edition Mango Drink – It was simple yet elegant & No frill Drink. The taste was predictable, but fresh mango pieces made it irresistible.

 Indian Delicacies vary significantly from each other with its local ingredients and traditional cooking methods. The chef excels in conquering all the flavours making their food the USP of this place.

Apart from offering the range of diversified Indian classical Indian fare, they also serve lip-smacking Chinese and Oriental Cuisine.
Veg Platter

From well-assorted veg platter to flavoursome non-veg platter, we have had plethora of options to grub upon. In all, we have had Naram Dilli Kebab, Methi Corn Seekh Kebab, Paneer Tikka, Mushroom Tandoori, Potato & Cauliflower Tandoori in Veg Platter and Reshmi Tikka, Pahadi Tikka,Tandoori Murg, Prawns, Nizami Seekh Kebab in Non-Veg one. It doesn’t end here, they have three different chutneys/sauces – Mint chutney, mustard chutney & tomato based chutney and they are best accompaniments with the snacks. From Fish tikka with mustard sauce, to perfectly tasting hot n sour soup filled with exotic veggies, it was truly a magnificent feast.
Non-veg Platter

Since we were too full after appetisers, Mr. Prakash Kotian advised us to try something from oriental menu and brought us Thai Curry with steamed rice. Basil and Seasoned mushrooms made it amazing with its delicate flavours.

In desserts, they got us Madhur Milap - a wonderful concoction of Gulab Jamun on bed of Bundi topped with rich and Creamy Rabdi and a thick layer of Solidified Milk served in a cocktail glass and I must say that it was exceptional.

We ended this Gastronomical journey with pan shots.
