We visited Highway Pakwaan in Burnside, a food truck serving both vegetarian and non-vegetarian Indian food. We have mostly tried the vegetarian dishes. For me, their chole kulche is a standout — one of the best I’ve had around here. The food has been very good, and I would rate our visit 5/5.
What we tried
We ordered chole kulche, momos and vegetable spring rolls. The chole kulche was my favourite, and the other two dishes gave us a nice variety of snacks to try. On other visits, we have also tried their shahi paneer, dal makhani and soya chaap. The paneer and dal makhani curries were very good, and we enjoyed the soya chaap too. We had the curries with roti and garlic naan. The new photo shows the paneer and dal alongside the breads.
The food truck experience
The food truck is run by an experienced chef, and the food is where this place really excels. It is mainly set up for takeaway, with some seating available but not much. I would recommend ordering ahead and collecting your food to avoid a long wait.
Overall, Highway Pakwaan is a place I would happily return to when I want good Indian food with plenty of vegetarian choices, especially chole kulche.
My rating: 5/5
