If you are looking for the best Raj Kachori in town, Tewari's is your spot.
A tiny very unpretentious place in the corner of a very busy junction, you can spend your whole life passing it by and not realising it was there. But once you go in, you will be hooked to its delicious mithais.
The staff at Tewaris is exceedingly polite and very efficient. If you place your order on the phone for a take away ( which is actually the best option) you will find your stuff packed and ready with a waiter to haul it to your car or taxi.
The samosas are always hot as are the khasta kachoris - crisp outsides with the taste of pure ghee at every bite. I must say that the fillings have slightly reduced but the taste is still the same.
Kaju katri is a "must" for overseas parcels, and Tewari knows how to pack them so that they get past all Custom barriers. And once "over there" their yummy goodness is hard to beat.
Perhaps it is the presence of a priest who is always reading the Gita, or perhaps it is the clean wholesome look but anything from Tewari's acquires the feeling of "bhog" -
A new thing I discovered today was the paneer dhokla. Light and fluffy, it was definitely the best I've had so far!
And the best thing about Tewari is that he is open at 8 in the morning and he accepts Credit cards! So if you want to pick up stuff first thing in the morning, you can do so without getting stuck in the impossible traffic jam that is outside this shop the rest of the day!

Go there with an open mind and an empty stomach. This place rocks when it comes to snacks and sweets. Conveniently walkable from the Charni Road Station, this place has been around for over three decades.
We went there last night to have some snacks. I ended up going for their Raj Kachori. Naively I thought, I'll decide what else to try later on.
The Raj Kachori was the size of a soccer ball. I am not kidding you. It really was huge. Although, my cousin barely managed to finish his kachori, I lopped it all up.
Other than Kachoris, they also stock various sweets (mithais) and Namkeen. The staff was inattentive and you have to really vie to get attention.

Fresh Sweets and mithai's. From what i know they make everything from pure ghee.. and after tasting the sweets i agree.. they also serve samosas and other fast food items like kachori's and stuff but really u gotta try their samosas.. Forget going here during diwali or holi time or any other festival time.. its too crowded.. if you have a reason to celebrate and share a moment of joy with family or friends with some sweets def get some sweets from here.. :) althought the location is a bit hard to get to because its in the middle of a intersection at opera house and if you get off the cab coming from the other side its hard to cross the road.. but the sweets make up for it!
