Mumbai rises quite early, if it sleeps at all. The sounds of splashing water as taxis are being washed, the panting of joggers as they sweat it out, the rustle of newspapers as they are being sundered, the hushed din of wholesale vegetable vendors as they lay out their greens, the hard bristle brooms of municipal sweepers scraping the trash, the cawing of crows as they attack a basket load of raw fish speeding atop a taxi roof, and above all, the hissing of kerosene stoves as street stalls set up for a Mumbai roadside breakfast. There are several places in Mumbai that are famous for their Misal Pav, but for me the best place to eat Misal Pav early in the morning is any suburban railway station. Speaking of spicy breakfasts, Mumbai also eats Kheema Pav in the morning. Mop up the yellow runny yolk and the green mutton kheema with a hot pav and it’s a breakfast for a myocardial infarction.
