From Whiskey Shikanji To Bakarwadi Chaat: This Canteen Is Serving Puneri Faves With A Twist

We’re big fans of fusion food, and when we find a place that twists and turns our old-school Puneri recipes in to something quirky and yum, we give an absolute thumbs up. Our recommendation today: The Poona Canteen!

At The Poona Canteen in Baner, every dish gets a fun twist. In fact, the brilliance of their experimentation is the unique selling point of the place. For instance, they serve something called the bakarwadi chaat as one of their bestselling veg starters. Priced at INR 155, this dish is a beautiful mix of spicy old North Indian crunchy chaat and the sweetness of Puneri bakarwadi with red and green chutney.

The cajun-style assorted Marathi kaapa for INR 155 is a must-try too! It’s a delectable combination of rawa fried slices of batata, zucchini and eggplant. Egg-eaters in the house, dig in to Canteen special anda bhurji tak-a-tak quesedilla with overload of grated cheese, for INR 175.

Want to get high on desserts? Try the Black Label spiked 70% dark chocolate mousse for INR 195. If you’re a fan of Marathi style lemonade, shikanjvi with mint, this drink is highly recommended – the whiskey-infused shikanjvi at Poona Canteen for INR 300.
