As nice as chaii
7 GoodGymers made their way to have an amazing time in Ealing.

When the six walking route surveyors, who left Ealing Broadway at 10:30, ventured into Southall after midday, they felt like it was a time to sit in a cosy place, ideally with a cup of chaii. Stomachs were rumbling, and hands were getting cold. The explorers strolled past shops with sumptuous Indian bridal fashion and three supermarkets with Madhan's name on the signs! 😮 We didn't know our humble mate is such a tycoon outside GoodGym!
The town in the southwest corner of our Borough is a known as centre of South Asian culture. Today's coffee social shifted into a gathering over chaii! We picked Chaiiwala as the tried venue. Despite it being lunchtime, a few of us opted for a Desi breakfast with a masala omelette and a selection of sides like chana, daal, roti and paratha. Others went for wraps or crispy aloo pakora snacks.
When the new joiner Chloe had to leave, Louise, a guest runner from York, joined us at Chaiiwala to charge her batteries for the running survey in the afternoon. It was a nice pit stop for all of us who fancied completing both Slow Ways surveys, and a perfect opportunity to socialise and learn more about GoodGym Ealing for the new starters.
