Go to East Street and ask anyone where to get a plate of piping hot kheema samosas, and we bet a lifetime, they will guide you towards Akhtar’s Samosa Stall – a little kiosk, run by Mohammed Akhtar, perpetually crowded with patrons between 4.00pm and 8.00pm.
The best part about Akhtar bhai’s samosas is undoubtedly the thin patti, extremely light on the palate, fresh and crispy. Available in mutton, chicken and buff meat, these medium-sized samosas, served on paper plates, cost not more than INR 20 a piece.
