How many times have we harped on about the fact that we just love cupcakes here at MissMalini. We can’t get enough, and you know that, but what you might not know is that food in general is a serious business at this office. Everyday, ordering lunch is a group activity, where we discuss and deliberate about what we’re “feeling” on that day. Obviously, everyone fights for their favourite, but on a rare occasion, we all agree and order from one place (oh the joy!) In fact, as I write this blog, the discussions have begun… Pasta? Grilled chicken? Biryani? It’s a circus. 😉

Here are some of the Team’s favourite things to order. (Please note that the pictures used are for representation purposes only)

Sanaa’s Favourite: Tiger Prawn Capellini

I love this dish for the fact that it is nice and buttery and the flavours are very simple. I also love the capellini because it’s a thinner version of spaghetti.

In Mumbai Sanaa suggests you try it at:

The Tasting Room, Lower Parel

Neha’s Favourite: Double Cheese Mushroom Thin Crust Pizza

I like a wheat-based crust and the fact that it’s thin crust too gives it the requisite lightness. The mushroom and cheese both add an earthy flavour that basically makes me want to die with happiness!

Neha suggests you try it at:

Domino’s Pizza

MissMalini’s Favourite: Chicken Shawarma

Carter’s Blue, Bandra West

Rashmi’s Favourite: Salad, Salad, Salad..

My favourite salad has all my favourite pizza toppings (chicken, bacon, cheese, jalapenos) in salad form, basically. Healthy and so yum! And with a roasted garlic and basil vinaigrette it’s a thing of beauty.

In Mumbai Rashmi suggests you try it at:

The Bombay Salad Co. (She’s talking about one called ‘The Hercules’)

Swagata’s Favourite: Chicken Fried Rice & Dragon Chicken

Dragon chicken is slightly sweet and goes perfectly well with the fried rice.

In Mumbai Swagata suggests you try it at:

Candies, Bandra West

Roshni’s Favourite: Paneer Makhani

The paneer melts in your mouth and gravy has just the right amount of butter. If you eat it with a garlic naan,it will be a sure-shot foodgasm.

Jai Jawan, Bandra West

Devesh’s Favourite: Royal Chicken Rice Feast

This awesome 3 in 1 rice preparation with Chicken Bhuna, Tikka & Reshmiand a layer of egg on top tastes royal just asthe name implies, but it’s not to heavy on your pocket!
