Commerce Six Roads, Opposite H.L. College, Navrangpura, Ahmedabad
Rated: Good
I have generally been to this place late evenings, the ideal time for a true blue Gujju foodie to go for an head on with all the trans fats one can think about. When I was here for the first time the owner Mr. Sanjay came up to me very courteously and gave me a brief about the specialties they have on their menu.
It was my first encounter with the delicious Alu mutter sandwich made up of six different types of special chutneys. It was indeed lip smacking. I just could not resist myself from indulging deeper into the menu. Time for the monaco topping; monaco biscuit with veggies loaded with tons of cheese.
Even the pizza is a must try.
Caution foodies: This place is addictive.

Shop No.102, HL Colony, Nehrunagar Crossroad, Ambawadi, Ahmedabad
Rated: Good
Ganthiyas & Jalebi have tickled the taste buds of Amdavadi foodies for ages. I have been coming to this place since it used to run from a laari (cart) at the Nehrunagar cross roads junction. Since then the taste has been consistently awesome.
Just a note of caution about the rumour mills speculating adulteration in making of these Ganthiyas due to which people keep on coming back over and again.
Nowadays they have added a lot of other items on their menu like Khaman, Patra & a lot more.

Rated: Good
This place serves sandwiches of all kinds. Grilled and non grilled. The 'All in one' happens to be my personal pick which is a blend of grilled Veggie, Alu mutter, Jam & loads of cheese.
Its a rage with Jasuben's Pizza right besides. Moreover its open till midnight which makes it a favourite hangout for the late night foodies.

239/B Nehrunagar Circle, Satellite Road, Ahmedabad
Rated: Average
This place is a paradise for all you chatpatta lovers. Chaat, Pani puri, Khaman, Fried Idli, and a million more options for all you foodies.
Good hygienic levels are maintained in preparation of all the delicacies. The service is quite efficient.
Just a caution for the parents to let the attendant know about keeping the level of spices low if you are there along with your kids.
Its pain to find an empty parking slot especially during the weekends or even otherwise for that matter.

Kalupur Railway Station, Kalupur, Ahmedabad
Rated: Awful
Ahmedabad a very important commercial Railway junction on the western belt of India. The fast growing Gujarati economy and the acclaimed Globe trotter Gujarati. Keeping these facts in mind we would expect descent food availability at the Kalupur Railway station - Ahmedabad. Comesum seems to be quite an attractive food joint on the face of it with the decent interiors visible from outside capable to lure the foodies especially with all those nicely made preparations kept on the display. Your high hopes shatter into pieces the moment you enter into it. The AC is there for the existence sake, not to work. The food is stale and rotten, even the taste is awful, probably the food is kept there for days together till they manage to find someone to consume it.. The attitude of the service staff is no good than the guy at the inquiry counter of the Railway station. The prices are as good as the rates prevailing at the cafes at the 4 star hotels near by.
I am sure the Global Gujarati deserves to get much better.
