Shi Shi Manhattan Spot in Mumbai
Pure is the new shi-shi place in town. They claim to be a healthy, all-organic restaurant with a keen focus on fresh, no-preservative ingredients. First off, the ambience in this restaurant is pretty amazing. The restaurant has been very purposefully bifurcated into an area with a more dim, darker atmosphere (better for a date), and a white, well-lit atmosphere (families, business, etc.). The wine list was satisfactory, but again, I'm from California…'nuff said (for those who didn't get that, it means I am an annoyingly particular stick-up-my-a*s wine snob). The service was excellent and attentive, as each dish was described to us in great detail. The food, I must say, was spectacular. We started out with an asparagus soup and a goat cheese appetizer, and both were up to the mark. For main courses we ordered a home-made fettucine dish and artichoke spring rolls. Both dishes were not only very presentable, but downright tasty. Finally for dessert, I couldn't resist the chocolate done eight ways - I won't give away this surprise, but will only say that it's a great chocolate lovers dessert.
