Chef Gresham, co-founder and culinary head, has whipped up an interesting menu—food and bar—which does justice to herbivorous and carnivorous. "Didn't want anyone to complain," says Gresham. "With 15 starters and four mains each, nobody can say we are biased towards any eaters," he explains.

The food menu, simple yet complex, is surely enticing for all. As is the cocktail menu. They claim to be the first Mahura bar in the country. I am not aware of any other in the country, so we can safely reiterate as it is surely the only one currently in Mumbai. Mahura or Mahua (the known name in most parts and to the oldies who love Hindi films) is a liqueur named after the flower with the same name native to Northeast India. The spirit on the rocks has a smoky aroma that lends it the starting smoky, mezcal-like taste; but it finishes off sweet.
