Chaiwala Shop, 41025 Fremont Blvd, Fremont, CA 94538

Monument Shopping Center is very lively at night with lights and signs that remind me of being in India. Several newish eateries opened in this shopping center this year, including Chaiwala Shop. Most  of the patrons of this shopping center are Indian.

The menu includes ten kinds of chai, available hot or iced, snacks, coffee, badam masala, pink milk, fresh juices, refreshers, shakes, Maggi masala, Indian burgers, Indian pizza, and Indian sandwiches, etc.

Cardamom masala ($4.50, hot): creamy and sweet. It was sweeter than I expected, but did taste handcrafted. I could see the spices and even the film that sometimes forms on top

Bun maska ($4): a soft round bun (looked like a hamburger bun and tasted like the rolls they use for pav bhaji), split and slathered with butter and cream. It’s sweet and buttery. It was okay. Very simple.

The shop is open late and has free wi-fi but it’s not cozy or comfortable. The chairs are hard. They leave the door open and it’s cold outside and cold and drafty inside. The lights are far too dim and the machine that they use to brew chai seems very noisy.

3.5 out of 5 stars

Crispy & Crunchy: The Most Popular Deep-Fried Indian Snacks

Indian cuisine is famous for its rich flavours and diverse textures, and deep-fried snacks hold a special place in every food lover’s heart. These crispy and crunchy delights are enjoyed as street food, tea-time treats, and festive indulgences. Here are some of the most popular deep-fried Indian snacks:

1. Samosa

One of the most iconic Indian snacks, the samosa is a crispy, triangular pastry filled with spiced potatoes, peas, and sometimes minced meat. Deep-fried to golden perfection, it is often served with tamarind or mint chutney.

2. Pakora

Pakoras are deep-fried fritters made with gram flour batter and various vegetables like onions, potatoes, spinach, and cauliflower. These crunchy bites are a monsoon favourite, often enjoyed with a hot cup of chai.

3. Kachori

A flaky, deep-fried snack, kachori is stuffed with spicy lentils, onions, or peas. Popular in Rajasthan and North India, it pairs well with tangy chutneys or yogurt.

4. Vada

Vadas are savoury doughnuts made from lentil batter, deep-fried until crispy on the outside and soft inside. Medu vada, a South Indian delicacy, is commonly served with sambar and coconut chutney.

5. Bhajiya

Similar to pakoras, bhajiyas are thinly sliced vegetables, such as potatoes or eggplant, coated in spiced gram flour batter and deep-fried to a crunchy texture.

Whether served as street food or homemade delicacies, these deep-fried Indian snacks offer the perfect balance of crunch and spice, making them irresistible to food lovers.
