3. Sindhful, Multiple Outlets

@delectable_reveries ・・・ After it’s successful run in the last one year in Khar, @sindhful has launched its second outlet in Andheri. A QSR specialising in Sindhi cuisine, it’s found its place in the hearts of many Mumbaikars. I have a lot of Sindhi family friends and have always loved having the koki and dal-pakwan for Sunday breakfasts…but that is as far my knowledge of the cuisine goes. Quite excited to dig into this platter and also widen my knowledge horizon of this cuisine. On my plate – koki, boondi raita, dal-pakwan, seyal pav (a lot like masala pav), chole, aloo tuk and sev Barfi! ? . . . . . . . . #dal #india #thaali #foodporn #food #foodstagram #foodlove #foodblogger #eatingfortheinsta #shotoniphone7plus #foodiegram #sindhi #mumbai #foodislife #lunch #followforfollow #foodies #video #sindh #homemadefood #tasty #yummy #dinner #vegan #thursday #punjabi #vegetarian #dinner #foodislife #foodcoma #friday #weekend

7. Swati Snacks, Multiple Outlets

It's bye bye Bombay, and back home to Madras.. I was planning to do a farewell series on Bombay, but things didn't go as planned.. anyways, this was my first time in Swati Snacks which is famous for their traditional snacks.. the food was simple, with no twist, but tasty and precise.. Kichidi-kadi, thalipeth-pitla and panki-chutney lunch had at 4.. . . I never imagined that I will miss so many things about Bombay, a place that I refused to call home for so many years.. and now the home I'm going back is no more the place it used to be.. but after almost 9 years of trying, we are going back home..#farewellseries #bombaynotmumbai #madrasnotchennai #home #eatingoutinmumbai #nofilter #swatisnacks
