    Don't go by the look of this place. It's right next to the subway entrance and from outside, looks like a small pan shop but you should go in where there are ladies making you delicious chaats. Tried out pani puri with spicy pani and it's one of the delicious chaats I have had in nyc. Also, not to forget super cheap!!! Like $6 for a plate. One thing to keep in mind is that it is cash only. So make sure that you are carrying cash. I just realized that the place hasn't been marked in Google Maps. The owner doesn't seem to be aware of all the social media around and how they can make their joint popular with reviews. I think I'm okay with that since it remains a hidden gem that way :) I took off one star coz they should get proper serving plates and maybe work on improving the ambience a bit.

    This place has the best pani puri since the potatoes are spiced really well. Ask for the tamarind bottle, which adds a nice finishing touch. A lot of places let you make the puris yourself, but Bombay Chaat’s presentation is worth the wait.

    Great service, best chai in the area A no-frills eatery smack in the middle of Jackson Heights. The momos and various chaats we tried were flavorful, and took us, a bunch of South Asian expats, on a trip back home. The items are customizable, and be sure to indicate the spice level you are comfortable with. Generally, the food is spicy. The place has a homely feel, and the owner, Agha, is usually around, taking orders and chatting with customers. Much like the Karakoram mountain peak it is named after, the food on offer will take you on a culinary trip spanning Pakistan, India or China.
