Street food constitutes a veritable industry in the Indian subcontinent. From makeshift roadside kiosks and pushcarts, hawkers sell 
everything from idli-dosa and chhole-kulche to aloo-tikki, kathi rolls and jhalmuri, not to mention an indigenous variety of chowmien that smells more of Chandni Chowk than China. They mushroom at any spot in a city that promises brisk business: outside colleges and offices, around fair grounds and in the heart of busy markets. The variety of cuisine is as remarkable as the quality on offer. Street food vendors are among India's most enterprising businessmen - they rustle up anything the sells, alter their inventory whenever necessary and are quick on their feet, moving from one place to another in search of greener pastures. And there is nobody to beat the ubiquitous panipuri wallah. Variously called phuchka, gupchup and gol-gappa, this delicious concoction is probably the hottest selling of the lot. It's a gastronome's delight, but a strong digestive system is an absolute must.
