Your favourite places to eat in Mumbai????

Red1973 · Dec 3rd, 2005, 19:38

Where are the places that we MUST eat at while in Mumbai? I'd love to hear about your favourites- address/directions would be great too! Where are some of the best places to go for thali? As long as our toddler can get a mango lassi, we're all happy!

So that rules out the Golden Arches

Sorry if this has been asked before- I just browsed all 7 Mumbai pages and couldn't see anything similiar. Perhaps I'm in the wrong forum

Thanks!

cant recall if u get lassi here..but i love cafe churchill, cafe mondegar and cafe leopold...all cheap, all great food...also britannia at ballard estate, paradise at colaba causeway for fresh and cheap irani specialities ( parsi food) amongst other things.

Panchavati Gaurav ( opposite bombay hospital, marine lines) for AWESOME thalis, i think its rs 105 -150 for a thali and has something like 20 items on it!!also chetana restaurant ( in fort, colaba) for thalis; Mahesh lunch home & Trishna in colaba for great seafood...K Rustom & Co at the western end of veer nariman road...exceptional lassi...been around 40 years

Badde miyan is great for kebabs ( behind taj hotel , colaba , on tulloch road)...and now im soooo hungry talking of all this

have fun experimenting mumbai's culinary delights

If you like some spicy Mughlai food with a generous does of oil, you have to try BADE MIYAN"S (it's a food-cart behind the Taj Mahal hotel, Colaba)
Don't go by the way it looks, people from all over town come there to eat.....

Even if you don't like, just try it.... not to be missed.... Egg Rotis (mmmm) and other chicken delicacies available.....

Enjoy....

Have you walked through the Port Trust and checked out how that seafood gets from the water to the Mumbai restaurants?

Indigo restaurant near the Taj, world class food, the wine list is frighting though a $12 bottle of Oz wine cost about $120 there, stuck to Kingfisher the food was the best weve eaten in mamny many places although it was not Indian but western menu, but good for a break

Goa Portugesa, Mahim, for dinner. Outstanding place.
Frangipani, Hilton Towers, Nariman Point, for lunch. For when you miss Western foods.
Swami Mamma's, sidewalk near Bombay Store, Dr. P.M. Road, Fort, for lunch
