A beloved Bandra chaat counter inside Elco Market, known for its pani puri and sev puri served in a clean, sit-down format.
Elco Pani Puri Centre operates inside the small Elco Market arcade off Hill Road in Bandra and has become one of Mumbai's most recognized chaat destinations. It offers the usual repertoire of pani puri, sev puri, and ragda pattice, but with a cleaner preparation and small counter seating that makes it more approachable to visitors than an open street cart. Evenings draw long queues, particularly on weekends.
