Arriving via Atlanta and Asheville, the James Beard Award–winning team from Chai Pani has brought their unique take on Indian street food to DC. The menu features reimagined classics like Mumbai’s beloved vada pav, a mouthwatering spicy potato fritter tucked into a soft bun—the ultimate two-bite snack. Their iconic crispy okra fries are a delicious nod to the restaurant’s Southern roots, while their pani puri cart offers eat-in-one-go crispy puffs filled with sweet and tangy pani filling, which make for a great way to enjoy a cocktail with friends before the main meal.
