Bored of the usual Sunday routine of window shopping followed by movie at Phoenix Mills (altho' I love the place and have many happy memories of it, what say Meghs?!, off-late I've become bored of it!)today, Shashank & I, thought of doing the touristy thing of visiting Gateway of India. We had initially planned to go there early morning following by breakfast at one of the quaint little cafes of Colaba. Now, people who know me well...know very well that I am not a morning person! Never-the-less, the only change was that the planned breakfast became lunch!
The Gateway thronging with tourists!
I half wished I had made the effort to get up early to avoid the crowd and the sun!
The beautiful lattice work. It's a pity, the condition they are in.
The Taj, beautifully restored to its former glory
Time for lunch, and we walk to this quaint little place called Woodside Inn, opposite Regal. It's a must visit for anyone coming to Mumbai. It a smallish place with a nice bar. I loved all the framed photograps of Colaba buildings. Very nice touch.
Let the good times begin!
Onion rings & mushrooms in beer batter. It does not get better than this!
Give me a crunchy fresh salad and pasta in a simple red sauce, and my world is perfect!
Blueberry cheese cake. Perfect end to a beautiful afternoon. Day well spent, indeed! I had grand ideas of walking up to Flora Fountain and VT thereafter, to click some pictures. But can u blame me for wanting to go home and catch a nap, after eating so much. But don't worry, will bring u more from my Colaba sojourns. Cheers!
