After a grueling workout at the gym, the family and I thought we could treat ourselves to a night of Tibbs, newly opened where the old Revedore Cafe used to be in Oshiwara/Lokhandwala. Upon approaching the place, it's clear to determine that its meant to be more of a fast food/take away type of joint, although they do have about 4-5 tables in their small outdoor patio area.
The 4 of us ordered 3 of the world famous frankies and 1 chicken tikka sandwich. The frankies came in these cool, twist-off branded cardboard frankie holders. Clearly, Mr. Tibb was going for more than just banking on the legendary family name. Also, as Mr. Tibb paced the restaurant back and forth, he kept his ears and eyes open, and was quick to resolve or aid any of his service staff in helping customers out. Each employee, from the managers to the cleanup kids, are all fairly well spoken and very service oriented, which was great.
On to the food. It was exactly what we expected. For the fast food/quick bite audience, it's absolutely perfect. Nobody has been able to replicate the proprietary flavours of Tibbs Frankies, and even the sandwich was crispy and delicious. It could have used a bit more chicken (I sensed there was more cheese than chicken in it), but I'll give them some time to work out all the kinks.
All in all, we had a very delightful experience. My mom-in-law, sis-in-law and wife are all big frankie fans, so I can sense that Tibbs will probably become very popular around the household. And deservedly so!
Other things on the menu include kebabs (veg and non-veg), pulaos, and a host of interesting french fry amalgamations.
Highly recommended for those in the mood for a delicious quick bite.
