Agra. There can be no better place than Agra for people who are very fond of food. Whoever comes here to eat these snacks, just becomes crazy about them. You will find a lot to eat here at street corners and intersections. Any tourist who comes to visit Agra city from outside, does not forget to visit Agra’s Chaat Gali. This Chatori Chaat Gali is very famous among the people. Especially among tourists coming from outside. What is it after all? The people who have made people crazy in this Chaat Gali.
This Chaat Gali is present in Agra Sadar Bazar. As the name suggests, Aloo Chaat is very famous here. The taste is such that on hearing the name of Chaat Gali people’s mouth starts watering. However, not only aloo chaat is available here, but South Indian, North Indian, Chinese, Italian, Agra’s famous Dahi Bhalle, Aloo Tikka, Pav-Bhaji, Dal Chila, Papdi, Pakora, Dahi Bada, Dahi Gujiya Paneer Tikka , Kebab, Pizza, Burger etc are also available. But among all this, the most special and liked by most people is the potato chaat here.
For 35 years the name of Chaat Gali is on people’s lips
Brijesh Chaurasia, who runs a shop named Chaat House in Agra Sadar Bazar, says that 35 years ago, I had opened a shop named ‘Agra Chaat House’ in this street of Agra Sadar Bazar. Obviously our shop was not so famous then. But a time came when due to this chaat, this street was named Chaat Gali. Now this Chaat Gali has become so famous among the people that whoever comes here once. He does not forget to come here again. However, in the last 10 years, many more chaat shops have opened in this street. In the evening, there is no place even to set foot in this street. When the potato chaat shop was started, initially they used to feed people chaat for Rs.5. Now its price has become 60 rupees.
The taste of Chhaya Chaat Gali on the tourists who came to visit from Kolkata
Tourists who came from Kolkata to visit Agra with their family said that we have tried potato chaat in Kolkata and other cities before. But the taste is of this chatori chart street of Agra Sadar Bazar. Couldn’t find that anywhere. Whenever we get a chance, we will definitely come here once to have chaat. The same many local residents do not forget to bring their relatives and friends to get the chart test done in this chart street.
