Quaint little place with good food
As a part of our little project of trying out new places whenever possible, my husband and I checked out this cafe on Tuesday night. Remembered reading the review on Burrp, so I logged on in the auto, took down the phone number to ask for directions. If you are in Chembur - then ask for Natraj Theatre - the nearest landmark.
Nice ambience - brightly lit, wooden chairs and tables with a nice dessert display.
It was after a long day at work, so we were moderately hungry. Ordered a Veg Platter (Rs 140) as starter and a Yorkshire Chicken Pasta (Rs 180). The platter arrived first - basically finger foods like jacket baby potatoes dunked in cheese, skewered paneer in a spicy marinade, mushroom in a garlicky sauce and skewered potatoes and mushroom in a spicy-sweet sauce. All this served with cheese sauce in a nicely arranged platter.Small helping - perfect for 2 moderately hungry people - all very tasty and fresh. Enjoyed licking the cheese sauce after we were done dunking the food into it.
The Yorkshire Chicken was very good - I am not a non-veg fan, eat is more as convenience, when the husband wants to eat non-veg. It was home-made flat pasta in a creamy, tomato sauce with bits of baked chicken flavored with fresh herbs. They are very generous with the herbs.
We finished off with walnut brownie - great on its own; as we were skipping the additional calories from ice-cream and chocolate sauce. The other desserts looked tempting, but sadly there was room for only one between both of us.
A good place for a quiet cozy evening out. Will go back again to try their breakfast menu (7:30 - 11 am) which looked very inviting.

Wonderful
Abso gem of a place reposing in the mezzanine of a hotel in Chembur..My discovery is thru a review here on burrp.more on that later. But I thank him/her for it. Travelled a long way to reach here and then took some searching..but the journey was well worth it.
About the place itself, Serene is the word once u r in. The delicate aroma of the bean tickles ur nose. Service is good, unobtrusive..quietly efficient. Portion sizes good and pricing effective..Most important the food is authentic..the sphagetti bolognaise reminded me of my long ago trip to Sicily..its that good..total value for money..
In one word Brilliant. Makes me curious to go and try out their other place Moksha too located on the same floor. Am sure that may not be bad either..
Eat here, alone or with friends or family. Meal for four costs about 1200. This has a place as a Jewel of Mumbai..not just Chembur..
I travelled a desert to reach an oasis, it was not a mirage. Actually when someone writes a confused review that make me even more curious..first 3 stars and then " tastes like shit"..Someone has actually tasted it ...yikes !!!! Why would someone bother to sample the after effects of food ? A cultivated taste i guess.

A tad overrated
After all the ratings I see below given to this place and also reviews from my friends, I found this place a bit disappointing...
The service took too long... One of the dishes my friends ordered wasnt available... But what made it really bad was that the waiter told us about it almost half an hour after we ordered it...
The garlic bread with cheese was absolute shit... no flavour of anything... even the cheese dint have any flavour to it... it tasted like rusk.
The food was decent, but nothing great to write home about... Its ok good... but not something that would keep me ranting and raving and camping outside (or perhaps inside) the place...
And unfortunately the day we went they dint have any of the wines we wanted either... That I agree is not their fault..
But yeah the rest of the stuff is sooperdooper overrated.
Btw I saw the Burrp award displayed prominently at the entrance... a bit of deceptive tactics I would say... hehehe...

awesome
i discovered this place by mistake...its tucked away in the busy commercial chembur station area, on the 1st floor of the hotel.i was in awe of the place the moment i put my foot inside the place the ambience, smell of coffee being brewed.....hmmmmmmm.
i ordered a coffee to start with till my friend arrived as she was always coaxing into makin the trip to chembur just to eat at le cafe.i realised tht wht i missed all these days by not takin up her word. My coffee was wow ..woke me up.... till i waited patiently for my friend...i observed the staff they were very helpfull,attentive and friendly....Finally my friend rekha arrives n they all kno her and know exactly wht she eats. We ordered for a chicken cordon rouge, smoked chicken bruschetta, fish in sage sauce, ceasar salad and for drinks we ordered wildberry ice tea. The food arrives after 35 mins..... not bad decent timing...but it was worth the wait...the food truly divine. i was so full ....but wht truly amazed me was their desserts...they have variety of chocolate, cheese cake,brownies,tiramisu, n somthing called as cutting dessert....small dessert ...fab idea...i asked one of the guys in the cafe mr rajiv if im not mistaken... tht how they concepatulized the name, to which he told me tht their MD MR SAJNANI came up with it....thumbs up to tht. OUR BILL WAS ABOUT 800.....value for money. a must go for anyone visitin .....
all the best guys
