An introduction to Jain food

Jainism comes with certain dietary restrictions. Most commonly, Jains avoid meat, and animal products like milk and honey, and some strict Jain believers even avoid onion, potatoes, garlic, and other root vegetables. Keeping these restrictions in mind, if you ever find yourself in Mumbai, be sure to try out these specially crafted Jain samosas

Most well-known for its khakhra and khari, Shri Asian Bakery is also popular for selling other baked goods like biscuits, mawa cake, and notably, delicious mini Jain samosas, filled with green peas. It is an old establishment, and the quality of goods has been maintained since its inception.

​Jain Sweet & Bhelpuri House, Kandivali West

Another one of the many Jain-centric restaurants in Mumbai, Jain Sweet & Bhelpuri House offers not just simple Jain samosas, but a number of Jain samosa dishes. Examples of such dishes are Jain vada samosa, and dahi samosa chaat. Be sure to try out these unique Jain samosa dishes.

A1 Samosa, Sion

This restaurant specializes in samosas, and therefore offers a bit more than other samosa restaurants, in the form of more samosa varieties.
