Many traveller-focused sites will hail the vada pao as Mumbai’s ultimate street food, my vote is for the Bombay sandwich. You can never go wrong with soft white bread, potatoes, tomatoes and a ton of cheese.
I have a similar chutney recipe, but in Goa we go heavier on the fresh scraped coconut. Now, in Canada, I use some Maggi coconut powder or coconut cream with the dessicated coconut if I cannot find fresh scraped coconut (frozen section).
The first time I sent my kids to school with a chutney sandwich, they looked at me funny. Now they wait to get a care pack!
You had me at "They say Mumbai is a city, but Bombay is an emotion." Lovely post.
ditto!

What a beautiful gift for your mother. 😊
