‘Eating like a Mumbaikar’: British envoy relishes local delicacies then tweets | Mumbai news

Britain’s High Commissioner to India Alex Ellis – who often shares glimpses of his visits while exploring the country – on Thursday tried a Mumbai sandwich and chilli ice cream as he also tweeted an appeal. “Eating like a Mumbaikar today – trying the Mumbai sandwich and chilli ice cream. (Come eat),” he wrote on Twitter.

On his post, users were prompted to share the recommendations of their favourite street food, while others recalled their memories of Mumbai’s ‘chaat’. A user recommended Kheema Pav and wrote, “A little further up is Cafe New York, an old Irani cafe that still serves legendary Kheema Pav, try it with a chilled beer. Oh, and if you are missing England they also serve lovely fish and chips.”
