After shopping in the Mall of Emirates I was craving for something spicy, tangy & zesty. I knew I wanted to eat Desi Chaat. Entering the food court with many options to choose from, I selected Khau Galli. Just peaking through its menu & even Zomato reviews, I thought it would be good.

Heard a lot of good reviews about this restaurant chain, I assumed this one in the food court will be representative of their other outlets.

What I ordered?

  • Chaat Platter
Chaat Platter

This was highly recommended by the Zomato foodies. 

The platter consisted of:
  • Pani Puri
  • Kachori
  • Vada Pav
  • Dahi Bata Puri
  • Dahi Papdi
  • Chana Chaat 
Chana Chaat

This chaat platter was served with spicy and sweet water

This chaat platter is a collaboration of various chaats served together with a serving size of 1 person. The price to quantity ratio of the platter was poor. 

Dahi Batata Puri

It was like having little of everything & not even slightly satiating. The other items were tasteless & dahi batata puri was the only better chaat among the rest.

Serving the platter for Aed 35, you would expect it to be value for money, at least have an appropriate price to quantity ratio but it was disappointing. Had you ordered each of these items individually you would be having a better quantity at a better price. 

As I was ordering this, the person who was taking my order was also uninformed. Regardless of asking, what would be the best thing for me to order, there were no suggestions. 

In case you are wondering there was literally no one behind in the line to order, it was just me and despite having a change of mind, he blatantly refused to cancel orders. 

Final review:

The price to quantity ratio was bad, the platter was tasteless. Dahi babata puri was the only chaat that was the better option. 

As for the chaat, I have had better chaats & better chaat platters for the same price or higher but with an excellent price to quantity ratio along with the right zestiness and satiating components. 

I personally dislike writing negative reviews & look for an iota of goodness in any dish or any restaurant. But this place was a sheer disappointment.

Will I recommend this place in Moe or what I had ordered? 

Definitely not, I will NOT RECOMMEND this place or the platter to my fellow foodies.
