Where do I go for the Best Vegetarian Food in Mumbai ?

Am a Foodiehave tried scores of restaurants,some expensive and some great

value for money, across the city but have just a few favourite and top choices

.Wanted to share this with all of you for a long time nowbetter late thannever.many also serve Non Vegetarian Farehowever many people especially

Gujaratis,Marwadis and South Indians are staunch and fussy Vegetarians and will vist

only Veg restaurants as even the smell of Non Veg they cannot bear Though Im a

Vegetarian,Im not one of them

and these choices are not gleaned from other sourcesthe Proof of the Pudding is

in the Eating.and so the only source are my very own Taste Buds..I have relished

the food at these places more than oncewhat stands out common among all is the

consistency of taste and the freshness of the ingredientsif you like a particular dish

the first time,you will vist the place again and again and will get the same consistent

taste

Gujarati Thali (obviously only Veg).PANCHAVATI GAURAV in Marine Linesits

just a coincidence it bears my name !.Food is less OilyPlace is hygenic andairconditioned..It offers Non Spicy food too for children and elders or those who find the

main Thali too spicy.On weekdays it offers Thali Size Variations..Full or Part at cheaper

cost. THAKERS BHOJANALAYin Kalbadevi.Ive had the best hot and piping Moog ki

dal ka Shira here in the Heavy Monsoons while it was pouring outside Rs 200 to Rs 300

on most daysSunday will be higherSeason Specials are lovelylike Undhiyu in

Winter.but you simply cannot eat such a Thali every day !

Chinese.MINGS in Colaba ( Buddhas Delight with Chestnuts and their unique ground

pepper and garlic in olive oil sauce is amazingI lap up three bowls of it and not because its

free !).MAINLAND CHINA at Haji Ali and Andheri ( all their dishes are well

cookedbut the choices from their Emperors Feast Menu are simply stunning)DYNASTYat Santacruz.Great Value for Money.Great Waiting on most nights as more and more


2/3

discover this place.try their Rainbow or Coriander Soup.ask the Steward or Captain for

suggestions,especially those not on the menu

ItalianRELISH(Only Veg) at Churchgate and Nariman Point.Theres Cheese in just about

every dish !the fondue is quite good as are the Potato Gnocchi Dumplings with Herbed

RiceJust for kicks try out their test tube drink5/6 flavours in different testtubes..TRATTORIAat Taj President,Cuffe Parade

Punjabi/North Indian/Mughlai.KHYBERat Kala Ghoda (this is classy and pricy and has

only two soup choices best skippedgood to impress clients though) .DELH I DURBAR

in Colaba for Soft Butter Naan and Reshmi Malai Paratha and Aloo Gobhi which I simply

adore.Its a no fuss no nonsense and good value for money airconditioned place and open till

midnight too and crowded on weekendsJEWEL OF INDI Ain Worli for Dum Biryaniits

a popular haunt for the upwardly mobile as it also houses a lounge barthe Biryani Vessel is

covered by Atta so the flavours are retaineddont be afraid to send it back if you find it a

bit hastily cooked and therefore not tasting and emitting the aroma like it should


Pranav.PRITAM DA DHABHA in Dadar,CARAVEN SARAI in Bandra and URBAN

TADKAin Lokhandwala,Versova for Sarson ka Saag with Makki di Roti

Nakul Bajaj.CAFE APETITE in Andheri East and PRATAPS in Andheri West for

Sarson ka Saag with Makki di Roti

Shahzad Jimmy Vasaigaraseconds Nakul Bajajfor PRATAPS

PraavinBHAGAT TARACHANDat Sanpada,New Mumbai for great Punjabi Food

Continental.MOCAMBO in Fort ( serves good pre plated dishes and not tooexpensive).FOUNTAIN CAFEat Fountain ( good choicethey also run the more famous

FLAMBOYANTE for Fusion Food at Cuffe Paradea bit pricy and they boast their Iced Tea

is the best in townjust a boast really ) CAFE PICOLO in Colaba (it is so small and

tucked away that you may miss itbut the food is smashing and great value for moneyask

for days specials).MOSHEsat Cuffe Parade.Those who are privileged to be members of

elite clubs like CCI,Bombay Gymkhana and Willingdon can taste some great continental and

fusion and Chinese fare at the speciality restaurants at these clubs at privileged prices too

unlike those at MOSHEs

Sizzlers.YOKOS at Fort.. Onion and Cheese Soup is really niceand ask for extra

bowls of pepper and garlic sauces on the side with your sizzlermake sure you ask for more

of what you want and dont want in your sizzlerlike i prefer more mushrooms and french

fries and no carrots.choice is variedyou can opt for rice or noodlesthe Shashlik comes

with a Cutlet.so dont be afraid to ask what the different sizzlers on the menu

contains.and wash it down with some great Iced TeaLemon and not Peach FlavourA

Sizzler is prized between Rs 300 to Rs 400 and can be shared by two too.so a meal for two

with two iced teas,two soups and two sizzlers and no desserts will cost you @ Rs 1000you

can bring it down by to half by ordering just one of each and sharing it


3/3

Fast Food ..SARDARSfor Pao Bhajiat Tardeo.not airconditionedyou may sniff atthe hygiene and service.so takeawy is best.the Bhajis well smashed and cooked and

topped with dollops of Real and Original Amul Butter..has got a lovely taste.the Paos

are dripping with Butterserved with cut onions and lemon.Love Butterso simply Love

Sardars !.Rs 60 thereabouts.SUBWAYS for Sandwiches all over Mumbai for their

Value for Money Rs 50 6 inch Parmesan Roll with Cheese and my choice of freshly cutVegetables with a liberal dose of South West Sauce,Mint Sauce and Mayonnaise with a hint

of Mustard and Barbeque.VADA PAO Stall for the ubiquitious Vada Pao and Onion

and Potato Bhajiasat the Love Grove Flyover and Worli Sea Face JunctionIve had Vada

Paos all over the City of Mumbaibut these guys at the Worli Stall have a great mix..not too

spicyand one does not blurp after eating their Vada Pao !I prefer the Pao to be coated

inside slightly with sweet chutney and a hint of the dry and red garlic masala powder

Mexican Food does not excite me much but for those who are fond of it then NEW

YORKERS (only Veg)at Chowpatty is a great place for Enchiladasnext to it is the popular

CREAM CENTREthat is identified with the Best Chole Bhatura in town I can vouch for

this.and in Maharashtrian Fare I simply love Puran Poli


Dhiren.MAMLEDARin Thane for Misal Pao

AnandOpp Astik Samajin Matunga for Sev Puri

BUT let me confidethere is simply no food like Home Food !but once in awhile you

do need to eat outand for me it often is a professional compulsion

Does anyone know where in Mumbai Proper can one taste some authentic Sarson ka

Saag with piping hot and fresh Makki di Roti with some white butter..even branded

Amul butter would do for me !?.am sure there is a placeyet searching for it

Will keep on adding to the above List ,should I genuinely love the Food at that Place

Maybe you can share some of your choices in Mumbaiand I can go try themand

maybe thank you for discovering them !

Cheers ! and Bon Apetite !
