Street food & chaat · Dubai
Chaat, assembled in front of your guests.
Pani puri, papdi, sev puri, dahi chaat and the chowk classics, made to order at a live counter.
Chaat does not survive a chafing dish. It is assembled, eaten in ninety seconds and assembled again, which is why we only serve it from a live counter with a chef behind it.
It is also the fastest way to start an event. A chaat station at the entrance gives arriving guests something to do, and it holds a queue better than any passed canapé.
What's on the counter
The chowk, at your venue.
- Pani puri, filled and served one at a time.
- Papdi chaat and sev puri, plated to order.
- Dahi chaat, assembled in hand-turned clay.
- Kathi rolls and the street classics.
- Tak-a-tak, vegetarian and mutton, cooked on the plate.
- Live ice gola and sugarcane juice to finish.
Included in the tier
Often already in the price.
The Premium package includes one station and Luxury includes two, so a chaat counter is often already in the price. On Classic, or as an extra station, it is a flat AED 250 for the chef and the setup, and the chaat itself is priced like the rest of the menu.
Where it works
Mehndi lunches, house parties, launches.
Daytime wedding functions, Diwali parties at home, corporate launches that need a talking point, and any event where guests arrive over an hour rather than all at once. It travels well to villas and gardens because the counter is self-contained.
