No matter which part of the country you may travel to, there's always something new and delicious to explore in terms of the food. Every state, every region and every city has its own set of street-style delights that are particular to that area. Mumbai has its vada pav, Kolkata has jhal muri, Delhi has chhole bhature, and so on and so forth. So, when Australian cricket journalist Peter Lalor landed up in Indore to cover India vs Australia test series, he couldn't help but try a plateful of the famous treat from the city - the sweet and sour poha. Take a look:
