Anand... I ve read a lot of your reviews on the site and i m disappointed in you in this case... how could you go to a Parsi joint and eat paneer makhanwala???
Jimmy boy is known for its parsi cuisine.
Start off with the Raspberry drink instead of the usual cola. Too bad Dukes stopped making them you have to be satisfied with some other unknown brand.
Try out the Gravy cutlets, Patra ni machhie (fish marinated with green coconut chutney and cooked in banana leaf), Sali chicken, Dhansak and Curry chawal
You may want to try out the lagan nu custurd to end your meal.
Jimmy boy is not too expensive, the service good and the food excelllent (take it from a parsi )
but do check the bill amount... they tend to make a lot of mistakes there.

In our quest to try out some new place for lunch, a colleague and me wandered around the streets of the Bombay (btw, is it called Mumbai Stock Exchange now?) Stock Exchange. We finally spotted Jimmy Boy at a street corner and took our chances.
Most of the fare here is Parsi, with a few occasional Northie Paneer items thrown in. I went for the Paneer Makhanwala. There was nothing outstanding about it. Just the same old Paneer Makhanwala that you get everywhere else. The Tandoori Rotis were however crisp and tasty. I don't know what was different about them, but I ended up eating 3 rotis.
I haven't tried their Parsi food so cannot comment on that, but if you are looking for some plain old North Indian food, then there are better options in Fort.
Ps - my colleague ate non-veg stuff at Jimmy Boy, so watch out for his review tomorrow.
