Being a huge Indigo Deli fan, I was very excited that it had opened up in Andheri too. It is a big deal for this oh so South Mumbai institution to make the trudge to the burbs. And I can only say thank you!
The food is pretty similar (same?) to Indigo Deli so it goes without saying how excellent it is. I tried the Eggs Florentine for the first time and found them light and full of flavour. The side of mushrooms had a yummy herbed taste that had literally been absorbed by them. My friends were raving about the ham & cheese quiche while I dug into a very fresh and crisp asparagus, arugula and artichole salad. We all tried the Green Apple twist, a breezy drink made with green apple vodka (I dont recollect this being at Indigo Deli so it might be new). I was disappointed at them being out of my all time fave Dulce de leche ice cream but the Tiramisu and Chcocolate souffle (piping hot and bursting with liquid chocolate) more than made up.
All in all I would say the food experience equalled that of Indigo Deli.However I didn't think the decor quite matched up. The ceilings were a bit low compared to its high ceilinged South Bby cousin, and I can't quite put my finger on why the vibe was somehow more restaurant then uber-casual cafe. But I guess if I stop making the inevitable comparisons, this is amongst the most welcome additions to the Andheri cityscape!
