Mahabaleshwar and Panchgani | Series 3

Mahabaleshwar and Panchgani hill stations near Pune is our go-to getaway. Every time we decide to go beyond those hills but my love for hills pull me there again and again!

Read more about the Mahabaleshwar and Panchgani hill stations in series 1, series 2, series 4.

Last few weeks have been super hectic and promise to remain same for another couple of months as I have taken on a full-time project along with lot of reviews/ blogging/ product sampling and blah blah… You get the gist.

So after a few weeks of some heavy researching in ecological fabrics like cotton, bamboo, recycled polyester, soyabean etc and travelling, I finally got a breather of a day and here I am writing a fresh post in Mahabaleshwar series.

Today I will cover the cooked food – street food available in Mahabaleshwar along with photo blog of Mapro and inside peak into a mud tandoor.

Just like strawberries, pink radishes, mulberries, charcoal grilled corn cob is a must have in Mahabaleshwar.

It beautifully compliments the weather and adds to the story of a hill station. I wouldn’t miss it for the world.

To this add some hot chai (Indian tea) with froth created using the sweeping motion between the pan and glass. Mmmmm…

Then there are bicycle-Icecream vendors, Bhel Puri stalls.

I love the way the bhel walas create the pattern in the farsan. Just awesome work. Don’t you think?

The tandoori roti images are from my stay at Savoy Hotel.

I was lazing in the room with night being quite chilly and I was not keen on leaving the warmth of the quilts.

V prodded me to go and not miss the chance of lifetime where I can actually do close-up shots of a tandoor churning out gorgeous rotis.

And I thank him for bugging me.

This post is incomplete till I showcase images of some mouth-watering pizza, sandwiches, candies, strawberry cream and a general tour of Mapro farm and restaurant.

It is one of the best pizza I have ever eaten including calories. Love.

A visit to this place is a must at least once a trip and if I can squeeze in more, then all the better.

There’s one more part coming up which I will focus on some activities one can indulge in during the stay in Mahabaleshwar like Boating on Venna Lake, Go Karting, para-gliding point among few.
