From being a small outlet, they have recently transformed in a lavishly spaced restaurant serving a variety of scrumptious cuisines coupled with an elegant ambience and multiple seating spaces. They have mindfully designed the place which can accommodate different group sizes from a table for 2 to a gathering for 100 people. This new outlet has three dining areas, private dining areas to a banquet for a big gathering.

We were invited to try this new outlet. Being a vegetarian restaurant, the menu is pocket-friendly and incorporates dishes with a twist that has a distinct and a modern touch which suits the present day lifestyle. Food  & drinks are perfectly complemented with interesting presentations. 












Recommended for all age and all types of get together, this place has a bright & vibrant settings with some great music in backdrop, that makes this place more lively.

Belstone has mocktails and shakes with some interesting and engaging presentation – like 'Khulja Sim Sim' which is a set of 4 mocktail that comes to you in a mysterious red box, 'Saza Ya Maza' which is served in shot glasses around a miniaturised roulette. Overall drinks were at par, nothing great than the presentations.
Must try : Mango Pulse – it is like sipping down the Mango Bite Candy.

Speaking about the food, there are a lot of options to choose from and so we ordered as per Servers recommendations. We have tried 'Andar kuch Bahar kuch',  ‘Belstone Sandwich’, Tawa Pav Bhaji & Paneer shashlik sizzler.

Belstone Sandwich

The food to the most part is great. But they have added few dishes in their new menu, which needs a little overhaul. We loved everything that was served and quite surprised after looking at the amazing presentation of 'tawa pav Bhaji'( a must try).

PS – Definitely a hot-spot for all vegetarians and Jains, and place to be experienced once !!

Place to jump, dance, scream & do cheap thrills - Seven Hills, Juhu !!

A popular saying ‘don’t judge a book by its cover’that is perfectly applicable for seven hills. The place is highly recommended for college going crowd who are low on cash because of its luring happy hour schemes that makes daaru really cheap.

The place offers good decent Chinese and north Indian tandoori mainly appetizers that go well with alcohol.
An attraction in Juhu (just like Gokul and Janta - Sasta, sundar & Tikau) for the young people. The crowd is decent and the place is not shady at all.
The best part is you can play your own music. They have a branch in seven bunglows as well but not as intresting as Juhu branch.

Lotus Cafe, JW Marriott Mumbai


It's always been a pleasure to visit this place. Especially for its lavish spread and Luxurious Buffet that not only satiate your hunger but definitely offers a feast for your guests.

Lotus Cafe - JW Marriott Mumbai Juhu Menu, Reviews, Photos, Location and Info - Zomato         View my food journey on Zomato!

Speaking about the buffet, the spread is just massive and equally marvelous. So you can treat yourself with the unmatched spread at leisure. Set at a grand Hall with high ceiling overlooking the generous and well-manicured lawn & a close glimpse of beach - this cafe look stunningly beautiful.

The buffet was accompanied by several live counters, offering mosaic of Flavours and cuisines which includes Maharashtraian, Mumbai Chaat, Pizza, Pasta, Ice cream, Scallopni counters naming few. Special mention for all the Indian Delicacies which will lure you with its authentic flavour, ‘Rogon Josh’ being my favourite.


We haven't tried the Ala- carte as it was never an option for us because of our love with their buffets. The staff is on their toes to serve you the best and the service is totally impeccable.

Well this is a coffee shop that is open 24/7, so it's the perfect late night coffee spot. But it gets loud and noisy sometimes when you have people feasting besides you.

Mandarian Kitchen, Andheri(W)

Hate the thought of getting out in the rain to eat something but still want to eat some delicious Chinese food. Don't worry !! We have Mandarin kitchen serving hot & lip-smacking Chinese till late night I.e 3am.
Mandarin kitchen Menu, Reviews, Photos, Location and Info - Zomato                  View my food journey on Zomato!

Mandarin kitchen is basically a delivery only concept but managed to have a small and warm seating options. And believe me, there is no better thing than eating the hot&fresh food served right away than delivery.

The best part is they are quick on service and home deliveries and the kitchen looks clean and hygienic. It’s a small Joint so don’t expect a comfortable ambience.

Portion size is generous enough. The quality of the food is good enough and special attention is given in selecting quality ingredients. Must point out the chicken they use, it was just perfect- tender and succulent. I got to know after that there are types of chicken and choosing the right one for a cuisine is an art.

Mandarin Kitchen best offerings were San ton Noodles in Chilli Basil Sauce, hot garlic chicken rice,Tom Kha soup, lemon Coriander soup, gong bao potatoes and chicken black pepper.
You get also get your customised wok's with plenty of options to choose from.

Go Panda, Lokhandwala - Andheri(W)

Go Panda serves some really delicious & stomach stirring #panasian Delicacies and Pocket-Friendly Meal of the day that suits the best for a scrumptious lunch.
 Go Panda Menu, Reviews, Photos, Location and Info - Zomato           View my food journey on Zomato! 

It has brought alive the local taste of street food served in different parts of Asia. I loved the way they have set their menu.

So they have some kind of live kitchen, and it seems that hygiene is well-taken care off. While you are eating at this small joint, I can assure you that the service is pretty quick so is their food delivery.

😜 Dislikes- service and less space #GoPanda #HoneyedChilliChickenPot #lokhandwala #mumbaifoodstories #FoodholicMumbai #munchymumbai #foodgasm #foodblogger #foodphotography #foodporn #yummyintummy #itsdifferent #mumbaifoodlovers #mumbaidaily

The whole menu is worth trying at least once as they have some really unique, innovative and best of fusion dishes that have been crafted with experiments with flavors while retaining classic tastes from around the Asia. Definitely, I can't say the food is authentic but yeah they have made it well according to Indian palette.
Thai Street Noodles


Some of the Go Panda's best offerings are Slopy joe sandwich, Thai jungle curry, Burmese khow-suey, honey chilli chicken pot rice, Malaysian korma, Twisted Asian omelette & lemon coriander soup.

Kinara Village

Kinara village as the same suggests is a wonderfully crafted rural themed dhaba that has amazing food to offer while connecting you to true India. Wells, small huts, small temples, manjees(thatt), camel rides and astrologers make you feel you in interiors of this incredible country.

It is always a sheer pleasure to visit this place as the ambience and the setting of this place brings peaceful and a delightful experience.
Mostly crowded on weekends, you will not mind coming to this place after a long drive. Yeah, but sometimes the long waiting queue, or long service time takes away the whole essence of visiting this Dhaba.

Kinara has its own set of loyalists. You will find mostly the young crowd as well as families (travelling specially from Mumbai) here.
Speaking about the food, the portions sizes are good enough to make you feel fat. The overall presentation and taste of food is pretty good. BUT Beware - They use a lot of synthetic food colours.
The service time is long enough but that assures that food is served fresh.
Chicken Biryani


Some of the dishes which I will recommend - Chicken Aftab, Veg Milli Jhulli, Tandoori Starters , kulchas & stuffed Nana's and obviously the butter Chicken.
Veg MilliJhuli



PS - If you are travelling or in hurry, do ask the server about the dishes that can be served quickly, otherwise you will be left waiting with your mouth watering with the lingering aromas of the food.

Anda Apna Apna, Andheri(w) - The Egg Peddlers


There are quite a few food joint that serves and specializes in Egg preparations and satisfy your love for egg and Anda Apna Apna is one of them.

They have a Secret hidden kitchen and the only option is that they will deliver food to your doorstep or If you opt for takeaway, you will be given a pickup point.
Do Mastane Egg Maggi

Everything from the Caller tune to the dish name are influenced greatly by the names of characters from Andaz Apna Apna.
This is one of the few places that serves freshly prepared egg till 3 am and will not burn a hole in your pocket. Not only till late nights, this place is apt to order breakfast as they serves from 9.00am till 3.30 am in the night.

The first thing we tried was  ‘Do Mastane ande Maggi’  - Double maggi Topped with Gooey and Cheesy Omelette. Well, we are are familiar with maggi and the cheese Omelette on the top made it more amazing. A brilliant concoction and quite filling though.

Robert Masala Bhurjee - it is another frequently ordered dish by us.  The egg Bhurjee is nicely seasoned with comparatively less oil. Overall, a better preparation.
Robert Masala bhurjee

Gogo Master Packet Egg - Another innovation by the great Chef. It is more like pav filled with Burjee and cheese.
Maha Purush ka veg Pasta

Mahapurush ka Veg Pasta - The white sauce is too cheesy and apt for cheese lovers while the Red sauce is perfect spiced and flavoured.


The portion size was pretty filling to satisfy your hunger and the taste of the food is amazing.
The food is served hot & fresh, no matter at what time of the day you order. The delivery time is normal on an average day but varies greatly on weekends and will be as stipulated over the phone.
Will consider trying out other dishes too over the next weekend.

PS - At any time of the day/night , if you are hungry then this place is worth keeping in mind.
