At Eddies Bistro!

Follow my blog with Bloglovin A mid-week lunch between work can be great fun, and more so when it is pre-planned and you know where you're heading. However, one thing lead to another, and I got late for this lunch. So I was relieved to see them letting patrons in quite past lunch hours. It was an all day dining apparently! so far so good! I ordered for the Grilled Tenderloin strips and the Mini Lamb sliders. Ok! so let me get this straight the Grilled Tenderloin strips were lip-smacking, and they tasted as good as they look in this picture. And so were the sliders, delicious and full of flavor.I can safely say that in my next trip to Eddies I will order for these two dishes without thinking twice! For me, it ticked all the boxes.

Sunday brunch at VongWong

The week before last, we had a wonderful Sunday brunch at VongWong ’s. It was a clean stretch of a drive on Sunday, straight up to Nariman point located next to the Oberoi Hotel. I was quite hungry as we had arrived late for lunch. We decided to go with their Sunday brunch menu. I ordered for the Strawberry cooler drink, while my husband went for a Pinacolada . Brunch Salads on the Right and Desserts on the Left at VongWong Strawberry coolie at VongWong I tried portions of most of their Salad options from the spread, and they were good.

The duck was cooked in Hoisin sauce , I believe and was a little too sweet for my palate. Crispy duck rolls at VongWong Next we ordered from the Dumplings and Starter options.

Mini Meal @Dunkin' Donuts

We were planning to visit the outlet the day it opened, but it got postponed by a few weeks. And luckily so, because I later heard that the first few days were heavily crowded. Dunkin’ Donuts has opened its first 2 outlets in Mumbai, and has been the talk of the town well at least in the foodie circles. Up until now we have had our fare share of doughnuts from our  desi  outlets. We entered at around 11:30 am on a Saturday, and were happy to find a few empty tables.  Store layout at Dunkin’ Donuts, Khar We ordered a Chocolate Orange doughnut, because I have always loved the orange and chocolate combination in desserts too. The classic Dunkaccino, a very big Bagel Burger and some mini munchkins. So, I’ll start with what I liked the most. It was the Burger- it was really heavily filled with chicken, and salads,a decent burger, with the right amount of tang and heat. It was very filling. Next the Munchkins, they were delicious. The coffee was great, went ver...
