👉𝐆𝐮𝐩 𝐂𝐡𝐮𝐩 – for eastern part

One of my Indian friends said that the taste is almost the same, but the taste of Phuchka can be slightly different to others. BTW a friend from Kolkata said that Phuchka in Kolkata has no chickpeas, and this popular Indian snack is also the symbol of Kolkaka, and it is the best Phuchka in India!
