Indian street food drives the menu at Chai Pani, a casual Decatur restaurant serving lunch and dinner. Menu items are meant to be shared and welcome a breadth of textures, flavors and rich spices through dishes that are hand-held, eaten with a fork, or consumable in a single bite. Several of the menu items can be made gluten-free (as indicated throughout the menu with the letter, "G") like the Bombay chili cheese fries (with spiced lamb); the mixed vegetable uttapam (an Indian crepe) with carrots, peas, onions, cilantro, ginger and chillies; and the chicken pakoras (Ashley Farms chicken fried in a curried chickpea batter).
