I'm a Delhi boy, and the fact that my Gujju girlfriend brought me here straight from the airport must say something about the food at this place. I'm new to Gujju cuisine, and I must say I absolutely loved the food here. As the name implies, Swati specializes in Gujarati and Marathi fast food, and they do it brilliantly. Gujarati cuisine is probably amongst the most underrated in India, which is sad considering the mind-boggling balance of flavours that it affords, not to mention its vegetarian-friendliness. Sweet and sour are by no means mutually exclusive in Gujju cuisine, and I think Swati does a great job of bringing this incredible mixology to your taste buds. I tried a lot of different dishes, and everything was delicious, yet light. The decor is functional, the service is most businesslike, but this still feels like a neighbourhood joint, and fires on all cylinders.
