Price, Rating |
Gazalee | One branch at Vile-Parle (E) the other where we usually go is near Seepz | Possibly where Sigfood started. Amazing sea-food. Used to be excellent, recently we feel it is slightly down. The latest trip was however a huge success. They bring you huge crabs and kapri the moment you are seated - very pricey but excellent if had - recommended for large groups. Otherwise you can get off at reasonable rates. The thali is excellent value for money. The Solkadhi is divine |
Moderate, Great |
Cafe Churchill | Located on Colaba Causeway opposite the second Barista | Mind blowing continental food - stews, goulash, pasta and out of the world deserts. Each dish is about 150/- and enough for one person. If you want the deserts it is 50/- each for a rather small helping but hell it is worth it |
Moderate, Excellent |
Koolar and Company | at King's circle near all the colleges in Matunga East | One who cares for his money, shops and eats at Koolar and Company - That's the cool jingle welcoming you to that best of Irani places in Mumbai. Sells amazing omelettes (double cheese masala being our favourite) washed down with generous fresh lime soda. Can double up as breakfast and lunch or even a snack and dinner |
