This street food concept is ok with the affordable, fast food, and quick recipe foods but it doesn’t not comes with the guarantee of meeting health standards, food poisoning and dirty cooking concepts. How could we focus on these sectors for healthy eating and start a open place eating culture. The main concept behind the street food is the delight and enjoy of eating in the open leaving off the dining table of home. The open eating gives some feeling of delight and refreshment to people who want to escape the regular eating habits for sometime. But is it good to form a habit to eat street food ? does a healthy living allows that ?
