Shamiana
where - The Taj Mahal Hotel, Colaba, Mumbai
Cuisine - Multi Cuisine
Rupaiya - Rs 2200 (Without Alcohol)
Suggestions - Not an exotic spread but excellent food
Okay so the occassion was parents wedding anniversary and wanted to treat them to the Lunch Buffet either at the Taj President or the Shamiana. Called up the Taj Corp Office, they recommended the Shamiana and there we were!
Okay so in terms of Ambiance - Its strictly okay, small, a bit cluttered, not too much space, like any other regular restaurant !
Service - Really really good, perfect!
The food - Breads & Salad spread is good - includes a wide variety with various fruits and vegetables like dates, Litchi, Apple, Pomograntes, Pineapples, interesting but good!. Main course spread was okay - there were some Gujarati starters, few regular vegetarian and non vegetarian vegetables, breads, rice, yellow dal and biryani. Again the spread was the usual, nothing exotic. The food however was brilliant, it could have been the simple pulao, or their gujarati snacks, but all of them were just absolutely delicious. They had a live pasta counter, ordered a white sauce pasta and it was brilliant!
Desserts - the most important section for me - absolutely fantastic! It included Bengali Mithai, icecreams, Malpua, fruit cakes, and a lot of assorted desserts made from cream, coffee, chocolate and fruits. It was just awesome!
Shamiana has two buffets - the regular lunch buffet and just the salad and the dessert buffet (For about 1200) - would recommend the latter, its quite value for money :)
