Philadelphia Chutney Company

When I hear chutney.....
I think of mango chutney that I can put on a samosa... basically an Indian dumpling.

I had the pleasure of eating at the Philadelphia Chutney Company the other night.


Chutney is located on 1628 Sansom Street in Philadelphia.
Many places outside of the US (unfortunately) have Indian fast food,  a concept we
might not be too familiar with. The Philadelphia Chutney Company says ".... in the states, our
take-out options are restricted to only Mexican, Chinese, pizza or burger joints.
The Philadelphia Chutney Company is looking to change that and bring Philly up to speed."

and this is what they do! Their food is southern Indian fusion and crazy good partly due to
using food that is organically sourced and having a menu that is health-conscious.

I ordered a "Dosa with a modern twist". I ordered the chicken with option #7 which had
avocados, diced tomatoes, arugula and shredded cheese.


A Dosa is bascially an extra large, thin crepe like wrap where all the delicious flavors are in the middle
like a modern burrito... sort of but better!  You're given different sauces to enjoy with your food as well.
The picture below is of 2 Kati rolls.....Chicken Tikka.  You could call them an Indian burrito I guess.



The bottom roll like wrap is the extra large crepe type wrap... I'm not kidding when I say it is extra-large.
They also have some cool drinks you can choose from as well. Ginger ale is always a favorite!


If you are in the city of Philadelphia, Philadelphia Chutney Company is definitely worth stopping by 
and grabbing some food from.... you will not be disappointed!  It's really delicious Indian Fusion. 
You can check out their menu or for more info at   www.philadelphiachutneyco.com

Have you ever heard of or had the opportunity to stop by Philadelphia Chutney Company...?
Or better yet, have you ever had Indian food and if so, feel free to leave me a comment 
about your favorite Indian dish!
