Ramnath Misal

Sunday morning brunch was Ramnath Misal. I believe this is not as well known as Katakir, Bedekar (Pending for this blog – some other time). Location is Tilak road, few meters ahead in the same line of Durvankur.  Place is like any average Amrutatulya, crowded on Sunday morning hence take away was preferred option.
This Misal has proper Phohyacha Chiwada as prominent ingredient, to the extent that you can taste dried coconut, Dalya in Misal! In addition they got pohe in it. Tarri has good presence of peas like Ragda of Ragda Pattiece. Comes in medium hot and tez hotness.  Taste is different; one may or may not appreciate as much as Katakir/Sri-krishna. Served with bread slices – I think most of Misals in Pune comes with bread slices instead of bun breads. They also served onion pakodas – of the size of Potato Wada and I saw many people having it there. But I personally did not find it as good to recommend. Main objective is Misal and stick to it!

Faaso’s wraps

These wraps are good anytime except for breakfast (my theory). One wrap can be a quick snack, two or more would make a meal. Lot of such wraps are around these days with different names (Frankie, kathi role, etc, etc).  Inside wrap would be mostly kebabs or desi (actually Panjabi) subzi.  I like Tikka warps from  Faasos’s . Chicken and Paneer, both are equally good. Fresh, juicy but not too much spice with Tikkas. And the actual wrap (roti) is too good. It does not turn into a rubber even if you eat after some time, the tenderness stays!
Basic wrap is Veg Salad warp with Mayo and is my favorite! It reminds me 7 layer burrito from Taco Bell! Off course, this is better version. The butter roti, vegetables and mayo just comes together beautifully – and yes, I guess this is the cheaper one as well. Some good things comes cheaper than some not so good things.

This outlet, one of Faaso’s chain,  is near Karsihma housing society, couple of shops after Pizza Hut while going towards city pride from Karve road.
