Busaba

What a change!

I was pleasantly surprised when Busaba re-opened its doors to show Bombay its new avatar. The dingy old bar has now given way to a chic, clean, bright space that really looks like it belongs next to big brother, Indigo.

They have moved the bar closer towards the entrance making room in the back for five/six lounge tables - it now is truly a lounge with low, comfortable seating and plenty of space between tables. They have also enclosed the front portico that makes for a nice sit out area without having to experience the unsufferable heat as is at most times of the year.

The upstairs dining area has not changed much except for a lovely private dining room towards the rear of the building. This area, perfect for a party of ten, has a great ambience. It has been enclosed with clear glass panes that provide a spectacular view of the trees outside that are lit up with spotlights.

Oh! by the way, the food has not changed much! It has retained the wonderful flavour and taste that Busaba has always been well loved for. A nice addition to the menu is a French steak, courtesy of the new head chef who hails from that country. The service is spectacular as usual!

All in all, a great change - Indigo's dingy little cousin is making its neighbour proud!
