Heard alot about the place. Went there for a quick lunch and some beers.
The place is good, but nothing special- this goes for everything, food, service and the ambiance. We ordered some beers and snacks. Beer was well chilled, the snacks were good; but not great. Overall, an above average place.
Jubel Chocolates
This place was highly recommended to me. I ordered a 2 tier butterscotch cake. It was a 5 kg cake and after a discount, i spent 9000/- on it. The cake was delivered on time at my party for over 200 of my closest relatives. A company employee was there to assemble it and look after it till it was cut.
The outer decorations looked pretty.
At the cake cutting ceremony, the inside turned out to be chocolate, due to some mixup.
I'm happy and satisfied with her personal attention.

Chi Restaurant
Going with their staff's recommendation, I called for their signature dishes- China House Special Veg. rice and noodles, egg plant in hot garlic sauce & Stir fried Chinese greens. The thing about 'Indian Chinese' is that it's preparation is dreadfully oily. So to have non-greasy Indian Chinese food was a pleasant surprise. The food overall could be rated as average, it had healthy portions but was low on key flavours.
Even though they don't charge a premium, the prices are not that low as well, especially after the VAT Service charges on F&B.

Dominos Pizza
I'm gonna give it a 5 cos I'm a fan of Domino's cos whenever I want to celebrate an occasion I call up Domino's. And today is my b'day and i had given a lengthy order. But when I got the order,one of the pizza's which was supposed to come as large one came as a regular one. To be honest I was a little frustrated, so I called up Domino's and i told them the situation. I also told that I would return the regular one while they get my large one. But they said no need for that. They didn't large for that pizza and charged for the the large one instead. Even though i feel for the staff who made an honest mistake, Domino's do pretty good service and it keeps it's reputation for the best pizza to be had at home. If they would provide sauce packets it would be nice. And thank u Domino's for another gr8 feast.

Barista Lavazza
Service is impeccable, especially from the slightly stout lady. She's a delight! Food is great too. My picks are Classic Paneer Tikka (which comes with brown bread), Smoked Chicken and Spicy Creamy Chicken. I don't quite like the wraps and Chicken Tikka. The Chilli Chicken Calzone is good too. Blueberry Muffin, Chocolate Mud Pie and Apple Pie make for good coffee accompaniments. In coffees, I'd recommend Brrrista, Iced Latte and Barista Cookie Crunch.

McDonald's
This is a life-saving Mc Donalds. I cannot count the no. of times this joint has come to my rescue when Im dying of hunger after a shopping session at Lokhandwala. Being in at the exit of a major shopping and residential hub, I suppose this outlet must be making a killing everyday!
Theres nothing extra to write about a Mc Donalds, other than its got some decent, but fattening snacks and that it is the symbol of operational excellence, global consumerism and capitalism. SOMe of their outlets are good but most are ordinary. Its a good alternative to the usual street fare.

Stardust The Bar --The Grand Hometel
Took some unexpected guests here last thursday. Found this place really good. The ambience is lovely but the food outdid everything else! We had buffet there and they had a lot of variety to offer in it.
Also since I booked my table through www.urbanrestro.com I got a great deal of discount too. My friend who had booked a table earlier through this site told me about it. Its really good. Check it out once.
And definitely go to Flavours...you ll love it! :)

Amrapali
I heard about Tantra from a couple of my friends and went there before some days. The interior was beautifully done with the perfect seating arrangements. The lounge was very spacious. The best part was the music played by the DJ's were up to date and they played all genres of music like hip-hop, progressive, house, retro and rock. The bar is a beauty, they have a variety of drinks and the food is to die for. We called for the Non-Veg platter which was just too delicious. We had a lot of starters and loved every bite we took.

The Chocolate Beetle
Given my crazy obsession for chocolates, it didn't take me too long to fall in love with Chocolate Beetle. A cozy little cafe in the chic M block market, Chocolate Beetle gives you enough and more to satiate your sweet tooth in ways more than one! They have a good selection of desserts (not just chocolate). I absolutely loved their Tiramisu, while my friend single handedly devoured a Belgian Chocolate Pudding and Sinful Well!

Royal Palace Hotel
kashid is just 4 hours journey from mumbai and Kashid is one of the best beaches in the Konkan region. This is the place to be if you want to spend a day relaxing with your family. A note of caution %u2013 the waves remain unusually high here so be a little careful while venturing into the sea.
Around 19 km away is the Phansad Bird Sanctuary. A walk through the jungle will visually treat you to many birds and insects. Deer and monkeys can also be sighted. This sanctuary has a rest house of the Forest Department where you can spend the night.
For stay, Prakruti Beach Resort is a good option. However, it is a few minutes away from the beach. You can travel on a bullock cart to get there.

Lahori Shah
Awesome ambiance. Extremely romantic with the candles all over..sat down under the banyan tree and had beer. Delicious appetizers and hookah. Then moved inside for the main course. The food was awesome and the service is excellent. Loved the Krachi Korma and Lahori Dal with til ke naan. The Gulabjamuns were really good. Will recommend to everyone..also great for special occasions.

Cafe Coffee Day
The menu is regular and standard across all CCDs. However, the special attraction for this outlet is the open seating arrangements they have which makes the experience worthwhile. The parking is a major problem as there is no paid parking and the cars are often towed away as the security is high at Taj Palace (which is right opposite to CCD). Also, the service is really slow and bad. The cashier was very slow and inactive while taking the order. Also, the waiters were busy and didnt listen, Besides they over cooked my meal and it seemed burnt

D Beer Factory
I really loved the ambience, mood & "feel" of this new place. The beer is decent and there are some fairly interesting food on the menu too. I preferred their Dark beer over their wheat. Their fish and chips were well appreciated.
However, the starters were killer! . They were beautifully presented too! Do give this place a visit to watch a game or to hang out with your buddies. The management and staff are both welcoming and attentive.

Papa Johns
Ok. Just finished tasting their Tandoori Paneer and Tandoori Chicken Pizza and here's what I think. If you're taste buds are aligned to Dominos or Pizza Hut for all these years, you'll be in for a Shock. Papa John's pizzas are TOTALLY DIFFERENT. So after first slice I decided to end the comparison and just have it with nothing in mind and I liked it alright. Although not the best thing in town, but still different and can be tried.

Chicago Pizza
The outlet is next to the Pan shops in the GK M Block market. The outlet is small and only serves for take away customers. The concept of Chicaco Pizza is that they sell pizza by slices and the number and type of toppings can be chosen by the customer. The pizzas are fine and freshly prepared. Quality and freshness of toppings left nothing to complain. The pizza slice is big and would be enough if one is peckish.
The same is true for Pastas, Paninis and Sandwiches where toppings can be chosen by the customer. We are however yet to try them.They also offer side orders such as Garlic breads, brownie and drinks. The side orders can be given a miss as we did not like the garlic bread much. Brownie did not appear worthwhile to be ordered.
