"The team behind popular Indian restaurant Chai Pani has opened street food cafe Botiwalla in West Asheville. Away from the hustle and bustle of downtown, the new spot offers many of the same flavors of Chai Pani, but in a family-friendly, fast-casual setting. Look for okra fries, lamb sliders, Desi salads, and grilled hot buttered naan wrapped around chicken tikka, malai chicken tikka, boti lamb kofta balls, or paneer tikka." - Kay West
"Newly opened, this fast-casual space boasts a simple menu of Indian street food favorites (hello, matchstick okra fries) from James Beard 2022 Restaurant of the year, Chai Pani. The colorful and quirky dining room pairs effortlessly with the spice and savory notes of the restaurant’s bhel puri." - Lyndsay Cordell
