Customers enjoying the dish said, there is a special aroma in every bite of the chaat they take and they love it.

The dish is also popular with people trying to avoid greasy food, because the ingredients are typically boiled instead of being cooked in oil.

Channa chaat is believed to be a mix of Indian and Central Asian cuisine – the red beans are typical of Central Asia, while the chickpeas, yoghurt and spices were added after the dish came to India, according to the local palate. Although some have tried to categorise the dish as a salad, others are argue that it is a meal in and of itself.
