Mumbai, one meal at a time.

Hi, I am Aaruhi Madan, a Mumbai based food blogger who loves finding the kind of places people actually want to go back to. I spend most weekends moving between cafes, new restaurants, old favourites, street food lanes, dessert counters, and the occasional overplanned food crawl.

I grew up in a family where weekend dinners were a ritual. Trying a new restaurant was never just about eating; it was about the table, the mood, the service, the one dish everyone talked about on the ride home, and whether the place felt worth recommending. That is still how I look at food today.

I started posting food videos in 2023 after friends kept asking me where to eat in Mumbai. What began as casual recommendations slowly became a space for honest food finds, cafe notes, quick reviews, and lists you can save before making a plan.

What I usually look for

  • Restaurants where the food is worth the bill.
  • Cafes that are good for real conversations, not just photos.
  • Street food spots that feel local, busy, and satisfying.
  • Menus with one or two standout dishes I would happily order again.
  • Places that make a weekend plan easier.

A few quick facts

  • Based in Mumbai, usually exploring Bandra, Lower Parel, Juhu, Colaba, Fort, and wherever someone promises good food.
  • Started creating food content in 2023.
  • Most likely to over-order starters for the table.
  • Coffee shop weakness: iced coffee, good lighting, and a corner table.
  • Favourite kind of recommendation: a place that works for both a casual catch-up and a proper dinner plan.

I am not a chef or a food critic. I am someone who loves eating out, noticing details, and sharing places I would genuinely recommend. If a spot is worth your money, you will probably see it here. If it is not, I would rather skip it than pretend.
