Every day, some 200,000 tiffins – little stacked cans full of lunch – are delivered with military precision across the city of Mumbai.
The tiffin kitchen I visited in Mumbai was fascinating, bustling, hot and a complete surprise to me. My plans for what I might cook went out the window when I found out it was completely vegan. It was also “shoes off”, so in my socked feet I cobbled together a number of tasty little vegetable dishes. Oh and I nicked a couple of delicious flatbreads from the guy next to me in the kitchen to fill out my tiffin…life saver!
