> Denver-based Chaatwala, co-owned by Pradyut Bansal and Michelle Buse, brings authentic Indian street food to Colorado farmers markets. Their philosophy centers on 'staying true to my roots,' making classics with 'the intention of invoking nostalgia and joy,' Pradyut explains. Operating as a scratch kitchen that handcrafts nearly everything in-house, they emphasize that 'the food is the highest priority and we don't take shortcuts.' Born from Pradyut's desire to share cuisine from his childhood in Bangalore, the business started humbly at farmers markets and now builds genuine community connections where 'regulars return with the same joy they experienced on their first visit.'
