Pancham Puriwala: Review: Restraunt in South Mumbai
Had heard a lot about this restraunt - Pancham Puriwala
Location: opposite to VT (CST) station
Best: (Its obvious but...) Puri
My son and me went to Pancham Puriwala. The shop serves fresh hot Puri's made right in front of you with Aloo and Dal/Channa. They also serve Methi puris and Batura's.
The person makes it right in front of you and you only get 2~3 varieties of Subji with it. With its limited menu, hole-in-the-wall kindof rustic ambience, it still serves great food. [incidentally a plate is a small 5 puris and channa/aloo]
They dont serve any soft drinks , but they do serve very nice , thick lassi!
Many families came for Brunch on the Sunday we were there. The pic you see above is ALL of the restraunt that has about 5 cramped tables in a open corner shop. So don't expect AC and Ambience! but just great Puri's

Is this Mumbai? A photo walk in "Walk"eshwar - Walkeshwar , Mumbai, Banganga Tank, Part 2
Is this Mumbai?
Every visit to Mumbai reveals a new thing atleast for me. I find Mumbai and London to be 2 cities that have a story in every turn. Here are some pictures which I took, which don't look like the Mumbai we have in mind.

Long back I had seen a collection of photos of South Mumbai 
that mentioned Banganga Tank, Walkeshwar in the ever busy south Bombay. After 15 years of seeing the coffee table book (from HSBC I think), I finally made it to see it in real life.
Route: VT station (by train), Taxi via Marine Drive to Walkeshwar
Here are some pictures I took,
A shave on the gully on a lazy sunday morning by a Barber - A steep climb down and up the Banganga tank in Walkeshwar (#IsThisMumbai) - A
Ducks at the Banganga tank (#IsThisMumbai)
Cows at Walkeshwar temple
Clothes being dried on the steps
