Lalaji Chaat: North Indian Flavours in the Heart of Hyderabad.

Lucknow vs. Hyderabad biryani debates are fun, but here’s a spicy twist: North India wins hands down when it comes to chaat and golgappas! As a North Indian living in Hyderabad, I’ve been on a mission to find a chaat center that delivers the magic of aata, suji, and palak golgappas, paired with creative paani flavors—from pineapple to guava, hing to jeera. And trust me, it’s been tough.

Enter Lalaji Chaat, the savior of my taste buds. This is the shop where dreams are made (and pani puri, dahi puri, of course). This authentic place serves North Indian chaat cooked in rich, aromatic desi ghee. And it’s not just chaat—think chole bhature, pani puri, samosa ragda, kanji wada, and much more.

The highlight? Their dahi papdi chaat—a perfect balance of tangy, creamy, and crunchy. And let's not forget the pani puri, which may have only one paani option but still delivers a flavor bomb. What’s more, they even offer suji puris, which is a rarity in Hyderabad.

The real MVP, though, is the kanji wada. It’s so comforting you might just forget you’re in Hyderabad—it took me right back to my Kanpur days. Served chilled, it’s an absolute delight.

Hygiene? On point. The open kitchen lets you watch the magic happen.
Space? Cozy but welcoming.

If you’re near Koti, don’t miss out on this chaat paradise!
