Eclipsed by the saturated stronghold that is Lower Parel, the oft-ignored belt from Worli to Mahim has some interesting takeaway options with cloud kitchens and home chefs rustling up a treat

Lobster taco

Started in October 2020 by foodie couple Meghna and Shaan Mehta who were inspired by their culinary adventures across the Americas, this Tex-Mex-style food delivery service based out of a central kitchen in Worli gets it right. Sent out in eye-catching, black Dia de Los Muertos artwork-bearing boxes, the generously portioned offerings by The Mexican Box menu are the perfect blend of the usual Tex-Mex suspects that have been jazzed up a bit. Take for instance the pricey, but decadent spicy lobster taco (Rs 900 for two) where lobster tails are enrobed in searing hot bhut jolokia, mayo and black beans in an all-maize (corn) soft-shell tortilla. Probably the only place that does our favourite pulled pork burrito (Rs 675), they make sure to load on the meat and a flavoursome guacamole made from premium HASS avocados. Equally scrumptious and made using a special dairy-free cheese, their vegan bean quesadilla (Rs 490) never once makes you miss the real deal.
Time: 11.30 am to 10 pm (Monday to Sunday)
