मटर पेटिस

     They say ‘खाने का असली स्वाद कैसे लिया जाता है ये इन्दौर आकर देखिये ’ :-)) . Ask any Indori about his favorite food and I am sure there can’t be only one.Be it Shikanji at Chappan Dukan ,Pani Poori at Chat Wali Gali , Baked Samosa at Bombay Bakery ,Dahi bada at Joshiji or our very own ‘Patice’/पेटिस (as they call it) at Vijay Chat House,everything as if is a ‘must have’. इन्दौर गए और विजय चाट का मटर पेटिस  नहीं खाया तो क्या खाया .

 

     The famous Patties at Vijay Chat House are available in 2 variants viz.Matar and Khopra and are fried right in front of you.Then the garma-garam patties are served with a generous amount of chutney.So,if you are a true foodie,you have to visit Indore before you die :-)  

     Don’t be disheartened if you cannot go to Indore right now. You can still enjoy the Patties
