Sorry for not posting in eons. Stuck in the culinary wasteland that is Vile Parle E due to work means that eating out is restricted at best to weekends. Anyway quick summary of memorable meals from last 6 months
1. Thali @ Vindhyas - Good food with everything unlimited. But VFM @ 900 bucks a thali all depends on perspective I guess
2. The matunga dosa wallah is back and then again disappeared. Pity - Egg dosas are a rarity in this city
3. Idli house in Kings Circle. Good Idlis and great variety. And of course particular soft corner since he makes Jackfruit idlis. Jackfruit is one of my favourite fruits
4. Sadichha - multiple visits. Still very good
5. Gajalee @ Phoenix - Nice but nothing inspirational
6. Asia 7 @ Phoenix - Great dimsums and a kick ass Caprioshka. Got quite smashed on those.
More i guess will be added

Roti aur kapda gaya baad mein
Last week I had the most divine Roti ever. The flavor was so good and piping hot from the Tandoor. Worth eating by itself which is what 2 of us did. Ignored the rest of the spread and just focused on the Roti. Amazing Amazing.

Joss me up
Twas the day after new years when not a drink was being stirred. 6 beings crept towards Joss with a foul and fiendish plan to get treated by the fattest of them all.
The menu was long and the atmosphere was warm. The waiter was friendly and the ordering was copious. The Mekong Whisky Fried Prawns I say, The Smoked Salmon Nori Sounds Good, The Oriental Crab Bisque sounds risque and bring on the Teppan Grilled Eastern Veg. The eating began and it was good. The wine from Hardy's said Riesling Gewurztraminer and it was drunk by the bottle. The Jura was 10 years old and that too was sipped. But ahead lay the main course.
The main course, The main course oh what shall we have for the main course. The rain in Spain stays mainly on the plain but what about the course main ? Lead on The Wood Flavored Tender Ribs, Bring out the Grilled Lamb Chops, Lay Out the Prime Tenderloin steak and reinforce with the Tataki of Prime Beef. Prithee how can we forget the Bacon Wrapped Scallops or the Nori Maki Sushi.
That was the main course, that was the main course but then what about the dessert. The dessert, the dessert give the fat one his just desserts. The Hot Kahlua Chocolate Souffle is decent I heard vouched one. And twas twas. Glory Glory Halleleujah The Hot Kahlua Chocolate Souffle is absolute pleasure and sin. How can something like this be a mortal creation ?
The bill was long and the bill was onerous but the food was excellent and the desert extraordinary so the bill was paid.
The food was worth repeating but the bill the bill, the butcher's bill...

RIP Anantashram
Just heard that Anantashram is no more. Apparently shut down due to a family dispute. And for those who ask what is Anantashram. It was by far one of the best khanavals in Mumbai. Their crab curry was to die for. The food and the fish were just out of this world. As restaurants go it perhaps was irreplaceable. I am truly depressed.
New Year and nothing new to report
happy new year. Been a sloooowwwww couple of months. Work has been seriously hectic and not had too many opportunities to eat out. In the words of a friend - No time to experiment and have been sticking to the tried and trusted. Went to Jugheads somewhere near Powai and found it ok. Nothing startling nothing astounding just average.
