The 26 Best Restaurants In Mumbai - Mumbai - The Infatuation
"Maaslli’s barely adorned dining room in central Mumbai focuses on serving traditional Gaud Saraswat Brahmin classics off beaten metal dishes and flatware sometimes lined with banana leaves. For a city exposed to plenty of Malvani, Goan, and Maharashtrian food, the menu at its first proper GSB eatery feels familiar, yet novel. It helps that there’s a set of framed art prints of the cuisine’s foundational ingredients: triphal, turmeric, kokum, coconut, curry leaves, coriander, chillies, and asafoetida. Informed servers arrive with tasting bowls of a few base curries before guiding diners through the seafood-centric menu. Our favorites: crunchy stuffed bombil fry, spiced clam cutlets, surmai Karwari phanna curry, and unarguably the best ghee roast prawns (and mutton) in the city." - roshni bajaj sanghvi
