What do you like about Golgappa/Pani Puri? Is it the crunchy and savory outer covering or the many different types of tantric fillings inside, or perhaps the soul-soothing sour-sweet water that ties the whole experience together? For many of us, golgappas are not just another street food; It is a passion which we have very much managed to carry from our childhood to our adult days. Bhartiya and Golgappe are an inseparable pair and there is no doubt about it. It is such a big part of the street food scene in India that many other fusion dishes have been created from it, but nothing beats the taste of the original golgappa, right?
However, this Indore-based eatery is redefining the taste of golgappas and has created a fusion dish of its own called Chocolate Golgappas. Yes, you read that right, chocolate golgappas are the newest food item that has caught the attention of every eater. In an Instagram reel shared by page @mammi_ka_dhaba, a pani puri vendor by the name of ‘Jain Shri Panipuri’ at Sarafa, Indore can be seen preparing these sweet chocolate golgappas. The video has garnered over 4.2 million views, 184k likes and 2000 comments.

The seller begins offering chocolate-covered golgappas, then he proceeds to fill them halfway with choco chips and place a small piece of wafer chocolate in them. He fills the remaining half of what resembles a custard and drizzles a good amount of chocolate syrup over them. He then tops it with chunks of cashew on each golgappa before serving it to the food blogger. Watch the video here:

Chocolate Golgappas have split the comments section, while many talk about how atrocious it is and that Golgappas should be kept out of these Fusion games, with some commenting that they are not interested in these sweet-style golgappas. Can’t wait to try it. Some of the comments in favor of the chocolate golgappas were: “Delicious and delicious looking…
Many viewers left comments saying they would never try this dish; One comment read “Golgappe ko mat badado saal” (don’t spoil the golgappe), the other read “Yeh toh panipuri ki badnaam hai” (it brings up a bad name for pani puri) and “Bhai hum apne primitive golgappe”. I love you. We don’t need these modern golgappas. Yaar golgappe ko toh wire. Human beings are becoming modern, this is enough.”
What are your thoughts on Chocolate Golgappa? Would you dare to try it?
