Original Chaiwalla - Te Aro
About Original Chaiwalla
Rahul was born in India in the state of Punjab and then as a child relocated to the vibrant and busy city of Delhi. Delhi is famous for its colourful bazaars filled with food carts, sweets shops, and spice stalls. This is where he discovered his love for food.
He relocated to NZ in 2006 and completed his degree in culinary arts and became a bakery Manager in Waikato and then later moving to Wellington.
In 2015 while having an unsatisfactory Chai Latte in a cafe Rahul realized that he wanted to share with the rest of Wellington what proper chai is. He took a risk, bought a small food cart, and started brewing chai at the local markets. It didn’t take long for Original Chaiwalla to become a staple at Wellington markets and events as well as major events around New Zealand such as the Night Noodle Markets.
Original Chaiwalla is not just famous for its Chai, but for the Bhaji, Pakora’s, and Tikka. Classic Dehli street food that Rahul has recreated and serves just as you would get in Delhi right down to the delicious chutneys all made from scratch.
Rahul’s ethos is simple, he does it the way it should be done and if he wouldn’t eat it he won’t serve it. He is extremely passionate about his Indian culture and food. The flavors are addictive and that is exactly what you will find with Original Chaiwalla products, you’ll be wanting more.

β β β β β Just incredible to be able to order soy chai and it is brewed with the soy. not to mention the amazing hospitality, and the flavour!! Proper Chai makes you feel almost suspiciously happy, and this is that kind of Chai. If you see this truck, go get a cup, you won't regret it.

β β β β β Very tasty traditional chai. Not too sweet. They ran out of brewed chai slightly after I arrived and even though another batch was well underway, the chai master wouldn't sell it to the gathering crowd until he was satisfied it was ready (respect!).
They offer several types of chai, including traditional Masala chai with milk or soy, and several other types with milk on a rotating basis (eg golden chai, ginger chai, cardamom chai). They also sell snacks such as pakoras.
Recommended for your warming late night treat!

β β β β β Chaiwala should stick to chai. Bought a mango lassi from them for my 2 year old. Feel bad that we didnβt taste it before giving it to him. Luckily he didnβt drink much and gave it to us. When we tasted it, it gave a sour taste. My husband took more sips just to be sure that the milk is really spoiled and it is. Since my son didnβt drink much not much impact to him but my husband has got food poisoning. Please be careful when selling food. Ppl trust you to give quality food

β β β β β Wrestling the mango lassi out of my son's hands so I could have a sip was like trying to get a steak from a rottweiler. Delicious chicken tikka. Delicious chai. And Rahul is a lovely person
