Street food in India has always been a delightful assortment of flavors and textures, and now there’s a new star on the scene: the humble sandwich. Gone are the days when sandwiches were merely tea-time snacks or breakfast treats. They have transformed into a popular street food, capturing the hearts and palates of people across the country. One sandwich, in particular, has taken the internet by storm – the legendary ‘Baahubali’ sandwich.
A video showcasing the creation of this colossal sandwich was shared by renowned blogger @spoonsofmumbai, quickly amassing a staggering 8.9 million views. The sandwich originated from Bipin’s Big Sandwich, located at Chamunda Circle in Borivali West, Mumbai. The footage takes viewers on a gastronomic journey as the masterful layers of the Baahubali sandwich come together.
Butter and chutney form the base of the sandwich, followed by a tantalising combination of French fries, onion, capsicum, pineapple, jalapeno, olives, tomatoes, pizza sauce, and cabbage. The grand finale is marked by generous dollops of mayonnaise, grated cheese, and beetroot. The result is a sandwich that defies expectations in terms of size and scrumptiousness.
However, this magnificent creation has sparked a debate among internet users. While some have affectionately nicknamed it the ‘Kuch Nahi Chhoda‘ (Nothing Left Out) sandwich, others have shared witty remarks. One user humorously quipped, “I was waiting for him to pull in the cameraman and spread him too on the sandwich.” Another remarked, “It took so much time to make this sandwich that the maker even changed their shift!” Yet another user cleverly dubbed it the “mummy’s kitchen mein jo hai sab daal do” (put everything from mom’s kitchen) sandwich.
As the video continues to captivate audiences, it’s clear that the ‘Baahubali’ sandwich has left an indelible mark on the street food landscape. Its mammoth proportions and mouthwatering ingredients have earned it a special place in the hearts of food enthusiasts, sparking conversations and cravings alike.
