Or else do it yourself... but that's a different thing altogether.

Have u ever had Mac's over fried Tikki or fries ??

I never go to MacDonalds in India. In the last 5-6 years, I may have gone there 3 or 4 times.

Even me... what i do is normally get some FrenchFrs, burger from the drive thru and am out for a long drive with my wifey ... and sometimes accompanied by Beer if not Cola.... That's the reason i like it. Its no trouble affair...

In fact i've never dined at Mac in my city !!!

No. No. I do not even go for the drive thru or take aways.

My personal opinion is burgers are meant to have beef patties. If it is Alu-Tikki that I want, I will rather eat a Wada-Pav (Rs. 5) on the road side with a plate of Kaanda Bhajiya (Rs. 8) and Chaai (Rs. 4). Hence I find no inclination to visit.

Lol... those wada-pavs used to be my staple diet when I had to take quick breakfast before going to college... but that didn't stopped me & my friends to go at nearby mc donalds either... we used to sit, study, chat, watch matches, & feel the ambience & energy of young crowd in there for hours... And yes, french-fries there are good... but the best french-fries I had in Pune was at a lounge in Bavdhan "Apache"... nothing better than it to have with beers...

But Vada Pau does not have Aloo Tikki !!!

btw the way have you ever had Vada Pau anywhere in Gujarat / Ahmedabad ??

What is an alu-tikki after all? A high-end / high cost, batata wada.

Wada Pav is a speciallity in Maharashtra. I am not sure whether you get it in A'bad. I stayed 8 years at Porbandar and never saw any Wada-Pav there. But things may be changing. You tell me.
