Aaram Vada Pav, Opposite CSMT, Fort, Mumbai
Across the road from the Gothic bulk of CSMT, Aaram has been the commuter's pit stop for decades. The vadas come out of the kadhai in quick batches, the chutneys are fresh and the line moves fast, because nobody here has time to wait. Regulars say the misal is every bit as good as the pav.
