The dish is belived to have been invented in 1996 by a Mumbaikar, Ashok Vaidya, who opened the first vada pav stall opposite the Dadar train station, thorough which hundreds of thousands of worker - often in need of a quick, inexpensive snack - passes every day on their way to the textile mills in suburbs such as Parel and Worli.
Vada pav was an instant hit with Bombayites (as Mumbaikars were then known). Vaidya remains a Mumbai icon; one local journalist even made a documentary about him, called Vada Pav.
However, many Mumbai residents still vouch for the taste of the vada pav made in the street-side stalls. The most popular vada pav stalls – such as Aaram Milk Bar opposite the Chhatrapai Shivaji Terminus or Ashok Vada Pav in the suburb of Dadar – can still be found near suburban train stations across the city in order to serve the commuters who rely on the ‘Bombay local’ trains to get to work.
Mumbai's famous Vada Pav have become famous all over India today. If anyone goes to Mumbai today, they will be the first to test the famous Vada Pav near the railway station.
