Cream Centre version 2.0

Chowpatty landmark Cream Centre reopened last week, and mid-day was invited to get the first look of its redone interiors and more importantly, its re-jigged menu. Set up by Ramesh Chona in the 1950s, the place now wears a modernisque look minus its trademark white-and-orange signage. Second-generation owner, Sanjiv Chona reassures that the place will continue to serve their popular veggie India khana apart from new-age entrants. So, rest assured, you’ll still find channa bhatura and the world’s best nachos and plenty of new flavours when you next step in!

Spanish surprise in Bandra
Every now and then, our fave suburb throws up a surprise. This time around, it is a new Spanish eatery called El Mercado. We invited a Spanish working professional in the city to accompany us for the anonymous review, and it turned out to have made quite an impression. Despite a few misses, the overall vibe, authentic food and vibrant interiors ensure we had a virtual (and memorable) trip to Spain.
