New Laxmi Vilas
A budget eatery that serves great southern specialities in comfortable, modern, AC surrounds. Dosas are the speciality. The thalis (Rs43) are also high calibre.

Hotel Ram Ashray
We wouldn’t send you to Matunga – on the Central line, no less – if this weren’t something special. Tucked away in a Tamil enclave near King’s Circle (a stone’s throw from the station’s east exit), Ram Ashray is popular with southern families for its spectacular dosas, idli (round steamed rice cakes) and upma (semolina cooked with onions, spices and coconut). You won’t taste a better coconut chutney anywhere (sorry, Chennai).

Del Italia
The Italian villa decor here – the semi-alfresco terrace with hanging plants, the faux terracotta walls, the wooden pantry on the 1st floor – is a little theme-y but lovely even so, especially at night. Some of the Italian food here (ahem, pizza) is so-so, but most is sublime, for example, the artichoke and bocconcini salad with sundried tomato. Bottles of Italian wine start at Rs1500.

Peshawri
Make this Indian north-west frontier restaurant, just outside the international airport, your first or last stop in Mumbai. You won’t regret forking out for the leg of spring lamb and amazing dhal Bukhara (a thick black dhal cooked for a day!). The ITC is also home to Dakshin (open 7.30pm to 11.45pm) – better for vegetarians – serving some of Mumbai’s finest southern food.

Bagdadi
Bagdadi is full of everyday guys who come for the traditional Mughlai food and no-nonsense service. There’s lots and lots of fish, prawns and meat (including beef brain fry; Rs40) on the menu, cooked up in biryanis and daily-changing specials. The best-deal rotis in town are enormous and cost Rs7. But alas, ‘food will not be served to drunken person’.

Red Box Cafe
Where Bandra’s beautiful people go when they want something ‘simple’. Red Box does good sandwiches, salads, pizza, fondue and espresso. There’s Wham! playing in the background, picture windows and outdoor tables, and a red-and-black goth-meets-McDonald’s design scheme. It works, though, on some weird level.

Shivala
Shivala is a working-fellas’ joint with excellent North Indian food (and the requisite South Indian and Chinese offerings). The AC room upstairs is way contemporary, with lots of glass, pebbles and blue light, but also views: Shivala is just across from Bhatia Udyan, the pocket of green in front of CST.

Moshe’s Cafe
Refuel with Moshe’s excellent salads, sandwiches, baked goods, coffees and smoothies. The marinated garlic, mushroom, leek and bell-pepper open-faced sandwich with melted mozzarella on brown bread will make you collapse with pleasure. There’s also a Moshe’s in Kemp’s Corner.

Anubhav
This local veg joint, aka the Veg Delite, has good South Indian food, as well as a smattering of Punjabi standbys. There are six – count ’em, six – kinds of vegetarian biryani, and a tasty lunch thali, known simply as ‘lunch’ (Rs45).

Falafel’s
It’s very much like a chain restaurant and a bit too marketing-savvy for our tastes, but there’s no denying that the falafel, hummus and Greek salads are delish.
