If you are a big foodie like us, then going on a drive is incomplete without eating something delicious. It doesn’t matter whether you’re hungry or not; Eating in the car is something else entirely! No, we’re not talking about eating while driving, but rather picking up fast food through the drive-thru, eating a home-cooked meal from a packed tiffin for a road trip, or stopping by for a quick roadside snack. It is common practice to park your car near the shop. Hot, and fresh breakfast.
Have you ever felt that some foods taste much better when eaten in the car rather than at home or in a restaurant? Why so? Well, one reason could be that you get to enjoy hot and fresh food just minutes after ordering. The car also serves as a great location, giving you a fresh new scene that you can change every so often. It works perfectly in all seasons whether summer, winter or rainy. Plus, you can enjoy delicious food with your close friends or family members, without any distractions like TV, constant chores or piles of dishes.
Check out 7 delicious foods that taste even better in the car:
1. Chicken Snacks

Those who enjoy chicken can relate to the fact that their favorite tandoori or fried snacks—chicken tikka, fried chicken, nuggets, kebabs, chops, etc.—taste even more delicious when eaten in the car. Pair these with fresh green chutney and some raw onion pieces, and you will have the best meal.
2. Momos
Steamed, fried or tandoori, whatever be your favorite momos, they always taste better in the car than ordering them at home. Packing momos in containers for home delivery often results in them becoming soggy. Play your favorite music and enjoy delicious momos in your car straight from the momos shop.
3. Burger

Drive-thrus are exciting in their own special way. You can easily pick up your order and eat it right in your car, without having to step out. Grabbing some burgers from the McDonald’s drive-thru, along with fries and a Coke, has been a popular trend around the world for years.
4. Fried Potatoes and Soft Puri
Eating home cooked food from tiffin during travel has its own special attraction. A popular dish that many people like to take with them is fried masala potatoes with lots of puris. You can simply place a few pieces of potato on the puri, roll it up, and enjoy the delicious combo while enjoying the amazing view from your car window.

We all know about a “Chinese Food Van” in our neighborhood which serves various flavors of hot and spicy Indo-Chinese dishes like Chilli Potato, Chow Mein, Spring Roll, Chilli Chicken and hot soups. Many people park their cars around the van-turned-shop and the food is delivered directly to their car.
7. Ice cream
This list is incomplete without people’s favorite dessert: ice cream. Many people often go on “ice cream drives” to get some fresh air and an ice cream cup or cone for a sweet and pleasant end to their day.
