Maharaj's Lair
This is going to be my first review on Burrp. And what a way to start. Last night I happened to be @ Operahouse. shopping for a Plasma TV @ Vijay sales. My friend suggested that we visit Golden Star Thali opposite the Charni Road Stn. I had heard a lot about the place but living @ Andheri I did not get to frequent this place. I was so happy to be there that I made up my mind to write this review. Luckily for me it happened to be their first day of the Food festival. Titled, The Best of Hemji Maharaj (chef).
It says, A unique compilation of Gujarati / Rajasthani food & delicacies, created during the 30 years of expertise as one of the greatest Maharaj's of Gujarati & Rajasthani cuisine.
And so do I say greatest HE IS. The quality of food, the items like lasan ki sabzi served on bajra rotlas was just too good, I wonder how one could make the pungent garlic into a tasty vegetable and serve it so innovatively. the Khichia ki sabzi was something I had for the first time too. The Mohanthal is to die for, it just melted in my mouth the pure ghee oozed out at the first bite and so was their Dal Baati their (trade mark) I hear. I think there were 4 sweets and 3 starters along with 4 superb veggies and God knows how many types of breads. I just wonder how these guys dish out more than 25 or more different varieties of dishes at one time. I think the 5 Star Hotels and the so called Franchise chains should learn from the management @ Golden Star. Hats off for their on the dot prompt service and full marks to Hemji Maharaj too. I am going back for more ASAP.
