A Punjabi street-food legend: hearty chickpeas simmered in a dark, spiced onion-tomato masala, served with pillowy deep-fried bhatura and pickled onions. Our chana bhatura brings the flavour of a Delhi dhaba to West Edmonton — perfect for weekend brunch, a filling lunch, or a comforting vegetarian dinner in Callingwood.
Chana bhatura (chole bhature) is one of North India’s best-loved combinations. We slow-simmer chickpeas with onions, tomatoes, ginger and a toasted spice blend until the masala clings dark and rich, then fry each bhatura to order so it arrives puffed, golden and steaming. Tangy pickled onions on the side cut through the richness.
It’s a filling, protein-packed vegetarian meal on its own — no sides needed — though a hot masala chai alongside is the true dhaba experience. Ask for extra bhatura if you’re sharing; most tables do.
Planning a weekend brunch with Indian street-food snacks? Chana bhatura is the centrepiece, with samosas, Bombay pav bhaji and chai rounding out the table. We’re open from 9 AM every day, so early risers in Callingwood and Thorncliff can beat the rush.
From Ormsby Place to Lymburn and Aldergrove, West Edmonton families count on Hot Mug Cafe for homestyle vegetarian Indian food. Order chana bhatura online for takeout or delivery, or dine in at our cozy café at 6719 177 St NW with easy parking.
