Patio "The Fine Dining"

Patio…. my second visit to this place, last time was Valentines Day.
As against last time, this time we were pretty determined that we will have most of all seafood.

It was around 11pm when we reached this place, and luckily we got a nice sitting. Not to mention, if we would have sited some other place it still would have been good, coz this place has a good ambience in general.

When the waiter realized, that we were up for seafood only. He animatedly demonstrated us the available variety of fresh fish, and for that moment we were the center of attraction. As all were guessing what are we goanna order next ?.

We ordered for Sp. Pomfret, which was served in two flavors. Half pomfret was prepared in green gravy while the remaining in red tandoor style.

But I became fan of Fish Kurkure Kabab they where awesome !!!. Fish Kukure Kabab was mixture of smashed fish plus prawns, deep fired in form of small tikas (pieces).

That was for starter…In main course we ordered for Prawns Hara Masala, which was equally spicy and well-matched our taste.

It should cost in a range of Rs.300-Rs.400 per person,
if you go for a four course meal which will including soup+starters+main course+deserts.

Pav Bhaji Special -- Shagun

On last friday evening I was rushing to catch a train from Dadar station.

The train was supposed to arrive at 11:00pm. Thanks to my fabulous timekeeping skills I reached their 1:30 hrs early to departure.

I was empty stomach and knew will have to spend next 10 hrs traveling, so this was a great opportunity to have some victuals pushed.

Also since I was alone, didn’t want to have a heavy meal….so thought will have some chicken soup on run.

I never visited any restaurant in Dadar area, especially the West part. So you can call this my first exploit.


Its 20min passed from my arrival

40min passed ……………….

60min passed………………..

Now, I was frustrated. Can’t find a single ***** place to have a simple chicken soup.

Last 30min and I desperately wanted something to eat.


I stepped in this pure veg. restaurant “Shagun”.

The restaurant was full, seem to me like a lunch house (it was dinner time though).

I wanted to order something which would keep me contented in my journey and swiftly perishable, some kind of heavy fast food stuff.

So, what could be better than Pav Bhaji ?????

I ordered one Cheese Pav Bhaji and my favorite soft drink Thums Up.

For a moment I thought, I made a mistake opting this place, since now I was racing against time (if you remember I had to catch a train).

Surprise……..my order was in front of me in no time.

Second Surprise……….

”Where is the Bhaji in this dish, I can only see Cheeeeesssssseeeeeeee”………..Wow!!!!


Too good, This Cheese Pav Bhaji was so awesome that I had to order some more extra Pavs (Rs.6 each).


The Cheese Pav Bhaji cost me Rs. 50 but was worth the 50 miles hound made before entering this place.
