@Jagdish,

Please read this this extract from a news item.

===========
MUMBAI: An association of hoteliers has appealed to its members to include Maharashtrian delicacies on the menu within a week.

“I have directed our members to promote dishes such as poha, shira, thalipeeth, puran poli, usal, misal and vada. I think two to three such items can be introduced depending upon the demand and financial feasibility,” said Indian Hotel And Restaurant Association president Adarsh Shetty.
=================

When written in Roman script one can’t be sure of the correct pronunciation of the highlighted food items.
I have guessed what they are and written them in Devanaagari.
Please review and correct.

पोहा, शिरा, थालीपीठ, पूरण पोली, उसल, मिसाल (मिसल?) वड़ा 

Regards
GV

@“gvshwnth” Sir ji
पोहे,पुरणपोळी,मिसळ,उसळ Others are okay.
As consonant ळ is not in hindi, nearest semi vowel ल is pronounced.
Do come to Pune to enjoy all these dishes anytime   with all shabdkosh friends.
Regards
Jagdish

Thanks Jagdish
If I ever come to Pune, I will let you know and we can enjoy them together.
At Bangalore, all I get is Vada Paav and Puran Poli
Here in California, I have located some Indian restaurants that serve only Vada paav and chaats.
i have not tasted the other delicacies.

We of course make Pohe at home but the style is South Indian.
I am sure your Maharashtrian Pohe will taste different.

Looking forward to savouring them some time in future and with regards
GV
