Hotel Vadvalaeat

Hotel Vadvalaeat is located right in the middle of the Borivali West Main Market, which is a place that never really stays quiet. We opened this spot because there were always so many people wandering around looking for a quick bite while they did their shopping. It is not a big, fancy hotel like the name might suggest to some, it is more like a proper local eatery where you can sit down for a bit. We have benches that have seen better days and the walls are just a simple color. Sometimes the ceiling fans make a clicking sound, but they work fine to keep the heat away. We start very early in the morning, getting the stove going way before the first shoppers arrive. You can hear the vegetable sellers shouting right outside our door. It is just how life is in this part of town. Most of our staff live nearby, so they know the regulars who come in every day. We do not do anything fancy with the plating or decorations. The food comes out hot on steel plates. If it gets crowded, you might have to share your table with a stranger, which is normal here. We have had the same cook for a long time now. He knows exactly how much salt goes into the dal without even thinking about it. We do not have a big menu, just the usual stuff people like to eat when they are tired from walking around. It is just a regular spot for regular people.
