Mumbai- A foodie tale from the city of Dreams
Mumbai, is known as the “City of Dreams” because of a variety of reasons, one reason being the assortment of food that one will find in the city!
Undoubtedly Mumbai is one of those few Indian cities, which specialise in as many vegetarian dishes as non-vegetarian! From traditional dishes, to zesty sea food, to millions of street side stalls to defeat the hunger demon, Mumbai has got you covered. True that they love their fries a bit too much, but they have food for everybody and for every taste.
A normal Mumbai household will never be able to do without vegetarian dishes like vegetable pulao, masala bhaat, moong dal kichdi, dalimbya, palkachi takatli bhaji, amti, kanda, etc. For the typical non-vegetarian meat loving family, the food includes Dry Bombay duck curry, anda bhurji, kebabs, chicken tikka, butter chicken, bheja fry and kheema pav. Being located along the Western coast, they have a lot of sea food options as well. Fish Koliwada, Tisriya Masala, Prawn Tikki, Chanak Fish Fry, Bangda Tikhale, Surmai fish curry, and Bombil fish fry are just a few traditional fish preparations that they savor.
Snack stalls can be found on every nook and corner of this metropolis. The city has so many varieties of snacks that it’s possible to survive on street food, for days at a stretch! The snack item which has a separate fan base is “Chaat”. Vada Pavs, Aloo Chaat, Dabeli, Pani Puri, Pav Bhaji, Bhel Puri, Dahi Vada, they literally have chaats made out of every food item possible, but never compromising in taste!
The desserts in Mumbai are unique and causes a burst of sweet and tangy flavours inside the mouth. The desserts are neither too sweet and nor too bland . Probably the first Mumbai dessert which comes to everybody’s mind is “Shrikhand”, a sweetened yoghurt dessert flavoured with cardamom, nuts and saffron. Modak, Sheera, Puran Poli, Dry Fruit Kulfi, Gulab Jamuns, Laddoo, Aamras and Chirota are the other desserts which deserve special mention.
So, if you’re in Mumbai and are a foodie, you would definitely want to immerse in the variety of food found throughout the city! From posh 5-star restaurants to tiny road side stalls, there’s food everywhere, for every budget and for every heart.
