We all have been to restaurants
throughout our lives, but wouldn’t you want to visit a funky, out-of-the-box
styled restaurant as well? Wouldn’t it be cool to dine in a Shikhara or even an
ice-lounge; or perhaps have your food while sitting in a rickshaw? Mumbai is a
place where you not only can eat in luxurious restaurants and even find small
quaint cafes as well; but you can also find extremely ‘unusual’ places to dine
at.

1) KongPoush – Flavour of Kashmir,
Goregaon: Apart from the breath-taking view of Kashmir, the state’s delectable
cuisine adds to the list of the country’s regional food favourites. Located on

Kashmir’s rich and meaty food. Having a chef from Jammu and Kashmir who
prepares the meal, there is also a wide variety of vegetarian cuisine as well.
An air-conditioned restaurant, there are many popular Kashmir delights to savour
on.

2) 21 Fahrenheit, Andheri:
Have you ever dined in a restaurant having the temperature at -6 degrees?
Probably not! 21 Fahrenheit, located in Andheri is one such place. Not only
this, you are given a thick warm jacket, warm boots and a pair of gloves to
wear! With everything inside the lounge made of ice; whether it is the seat,
the stringed curtains or the wall; one immediately forgets that they are in
Mumbai!
