What is known today as Chicken Baida Rolls.....are all together different in Mumbai, Aurangabad and Dilli. In Mumbai....though it tastes good, it is mechanical. There are joints in Mahim and Colaba. But to be honest, they all are just mechanical. Routine. In Aurangabad......the truly Mughlai city even today......it gives the taste of Jannat.... yes, just heavenly......the secret lies in the herbs which are added in it. And the herbs are available.... luckily even today....... in the mountains of Ajanta and Ellora......the traditional Mughal era route to Dilli from Deccan. In Dilli.....the authentic ones are available even today.....only at Urdu Bazaar, (opp. Red Fort). Above all, the purpose of writing all this is that, I found the authentic ones with herbs et all today in Aurangabad itself.............and just half a kilometer away from my home!!! There is this old Urdu saying....though it is in respect of a girl, I can't resist quoting it for these rolls "jisko dhund rahe the gali gali........woh makaan ke pichwade nikli" :)))
