Prominent American gastropub “Rodeo Drive” has come to Mumbai to satiate your American Food cravings with innovative drinks and burgers to give your taste buds a ride into heaven.

                               

From the owners of the OPA Bar and Cafe, this gastropub is located at Peninsula Redline hotel in Andheri East. Rodeo House is a popular eating joint in Dubai which has created waves in Dubai for young American Bar concept and Burgers, some of which are curated by Worlds Famous Chefs.

This place will definitely cheer you with its fun vibe. They have an interactive space with  a mechanical bull, American automobiles - one wall encrusted with no. Plates of all the states of America, some drinking games and a whole lot of food focused on American Grill concept !!!

They play good music and it plays a great role in binding the experience together. With dim lights and table carved out of stacked tyres, they are Long backless Stoll's in the centre, it makes the place look spacious. While we feel, backless Stoll's are not comfortable to enjoy food and drinks, we opted for comfy sofa seating on the side.

When it comes to American food, we know about the big portion size and great taste & flavours that make it very difficult to tame the foodie inside.

Prices are little on the premium side but guess's what you are saving for your tickets to Dubai to visit this Amazing place. For appetizers, they have Fuss free menu that includes a good variety of finger food. We have tried the Nachos with Barbeque chicken and the sharable New York Platter. The New York Platter comes with Fries, Sausages, Buffalo chicken wings, BBQ Lamb, mozzarella sticks and chunky chicken chips with blue cheese dip and tangy mayo - that just can’t be refused.

For mains, the best choice is to go with American Favourite Burgers, siders, pizza or hotdogs. The also have another delectable Main Course options with variety of Grilled Meats, Lamb chops, shanks & ribs - which is ideal for variety seeking -hungry gourmands

Apart from the variety of spirits, their signature cocktail menu features some of the best concoctions. While we ordered Frozen Alaska –that concocts Vodka, Rum, Gin, Tequila, Blue curacao, lime juice and strawberry syrup into a heady mix and white House - a coffee and milk based mix, they set out to be clear winners.

Rodeo Drive is the new Texan pub in the city and highly recommend for every party freaks and people who are looking out for a perfect balance with good food and drinks

PS - Do try their cheesecakes, we have loved the Blueberry Cheese cake.

Lokhandwala has a new join that serves the best Roasted Chicken: TST - Pollo A La Brasa

If you ask me what is love, then I will say a portion of Perfectly roasted chicken with texture and flavours.  And guess what, I have found my love at this Newly opened eatery in Lokhandwala first cross lane.

                              

For all chicken lovers, this eatery had this amazing Peruvian recipe for roasted chicken waiting for you that can be accompanied with wide choices of sides. The menu has the influence of flavours and cuisine of Peru and also have some real good Milkshakes.

You can choose from the options of the legendary 'Pollo A La Brasa - The Peruvian Grilled Chicken, Arroz Chaufa (Peruvian version of oriental Fried rice), Burgers, pizza, sandwiches, quesadelas< Peruvian wings and more. The menu is limited but the Legendary Gastronomic Champion - Pollo A La Brasa is something that you have to come back for.

'Pollo A La Brasa' is the most delicious roasted chicken I have ever eaten…The marinade is full of spices and herbs.  I would describe 'Pollo A La Brasa' as herbaceous, savory, well spiced and just as juicy as one can imagine. The skin is beautifully crisp and flavored too. It is considered to be a staple item on the menu of Peruvian/American fusion restaurants. In Peru, They even have a national day for it on June 1.

I have written so much about 'Pollo A La Brasa' but trust me even the Milkshakes are also the winner of our meal at TBC. This is a small joint with a little seating space. It mostly comprises of Backless stools which I feel is not idle to enjoy a comfortable meal. But that serves the purpose as it provides with more seating space.

Background music they play is also refreshing and plays a great role in binding the experience together.

Overall, a first of its kind and a great place in the vicinity to enjoy good Peruvian Cuisine and the Legendary roasted chicken.

For starters, they have some impressive Achari Paneer Tikka, Kurkure Paneer, Chatpatey Honey Aloo and Tikka momos for vegetarians and prawns koliwada, Tikka supreme, lamb roti kebab, Patiala fry chicken for non-vegetarians.

For mains, I have tried Angrezon Da Chicken Tikka and Mummy-di-Dal that is served with complementary coin paratha or your choice of bread. I loved the Mummy-di-dal, accompany it with a lacha paratha or a Butter naan and enjoy simple pleasures of life. The biryani was quite decent and a little dry, not one you will commonly find in Mumbai.

Overall, I will recommend this place for the Dhaba style Experience with Punjabi Music, Inviting Ambience & Amazing Concoctions of Mocktails & Cocktails with adecent fare of North Indian Delicacies.

Momos !! Momos !! Momos !! If you visit this place you will definately fall in love with your varieties of Momos Here : Everest Momos, Oshiwara

My recent love for Momos just went to another level after visiting this small little stall that serves lips making varieties of Momos. This place outside Brownie Point, Opp - Shreejis In Oshiwara is famous for its delectable momos that are made fresh in front of you.

                                                 

As we know, Finding Momos was a difficult task in Mumbai as compared to Delhi. But now there are many Joints that serve these Tibetan Steamed Delicacies.

The best think about Everest Momos is that they make dumpling from the whole wheat Dough and you can get it Steamed as well as fried.

It is amongst the most pocket-Friendly and healthy snacking Option available in Oshiwara.

Not only Momos, do try their delectable Chicken Lollipop and Crispy Thread Chicken.

One thing we have realized that - Gluttony is not a sin at Bombay Barbeque.

                       

The best thing about Bombay Barbeque is the roaring hot griddle that stands at the center of the table. It assures that the marinated vegetables, seafood and meat is served smoking hot to the guests and this lives up to the spirit of Bombay Barbeque.

They have various live counters, my favourite one is the Oriental counter where you can make your own stir fry by choosing your own ingredients and proteins.  Along with this, they have a live pasta counter, Chaat counter and pizza counter.

Bombay Barbeque have many droll worthy options for main course. The food counters filled with tantalizing varieties of dishes and delicacies that excited us with every serving.  The cuisine offered on platter were mainly North Indian, Mughlai, Chinese and some of the regional Indian cuisine that keeps on changing.

They have a well-spread dessert section with the varied varieties of contemporary sweets to traditional ones. You can spot steaming hot jalebis being churned out from one of the counter and then drool-worthy desserts on the other side. The stone cold ice cream counter will surely satiate your cravings.
