Hot to Chaat Indian Food Popup
Friday, May 24th

The Kitchen at Whole Foods Market, 1 for $4, 2 for $7, or 3 for $10

Indian Street Food...its so chaat right now!

 

There's something we'd love for you to try.  The Kitchen at San Mateo has teamed up with Sukhi's Indian food for a new pop-up style street food offering in our store featuring chaat.

 

What's 'Chaat', you ask?

Chaat started in part of Uttar Pradesh in India, but now you'll find this street food all over the world, sometimes with delicious influences from other cultures.  It's kind of the fast food of India.

 

Our chaat is served smothered in tamarind and cilantro chutneys, yogurt and sweet and sour garbanzo beans.  It's topped off with fresh cilantro, red onions, and tomatoes.

 

So, if you are Hot To Chaat then stop by The Kitchen from 11am til 2pm Monday through Friday!
