A Luxury Gujarati Thali Experience in a Beautiful Local Home - Day Trip Pallavi lives with her husband and daughter in an elegant apartment in Nariman Point in South Mumbai. After getting married, she learned to cook from her mother, mother-in-law and the family maharaj (cook). But it was her father-in-law who gave her the most encouragement and taught her how to pair ingredients, showing her which roti should be eaten with which vegetable and lentil. 25 years later she puts this knowledge to use when she curates menus for the catering service she started that provides high-quality, home-style food to corporate offices and private residences. Pallavi's family is so serious about food that each day Pallavi packs picnic baskets for her daughter and husband to take to work. They are stuffed with five or six tiffins to ensure that they never go hungry and there is always something to munch on! Pallavi will welcome you into her sprawling apartment dressed in an elegant sari. Get to know each other as you sip on chaas (buttermilk) and eat delicious Gujarati snacks such as dhokla (made from rice and fermented chickpea batter), khandvi (a savory bite-sized snack) or patra (rolled colocasia leaves). Your meal will be served on a traditional silver thali and might include dishes such as bhaigan bhartha (roasted eggplant with onions and tomatoes), bajra roti (pearl millet flatbread), aloo and gobi sabzi (potato and cauliflower) and other seasonal vegetables. End your meal with a typical Gujarati dessert called shrikhand, a sweetened yogurt dish. If you book a cooking experience, join Pallavi in her kitchen to cook a vegetarian Gujarati meal. You can expect your host Pallavi to demonstrate two to three of the main dishes you will be eating later. She and her cook (maharaj) may show you how to make paneer (fresh cheese) and sweet daal (a famous Gujrati lentil dish) or how to fry puris and cook a seasonal vegetable dish. Pallavi also offers an optional market tour add-on during which she takes you to she will take you to Crawford Market, a large, bustling local marketplace where you can find everything you could possibly need for your kitchen or home. 0 nights from $44 per person

Mumbai About 300 years ago, the area of Bombay was nothing more than seven islands occupied by small fishing settlements. Today this bustling city offers a seemingly endless array of sights and cultural activities. Mumbai is the glamour of Bollywood cinema, cricket on the maidans on weekends, bhelpuri on the beach at Chowpatty and red double-decker buses. It is also the infamous cages of the red-light district, Asia's largest slums, communalist politics and powerful mafia dons. This pungent drama is played out against a Victorian townscape more reminiscent of a prosperous 19th-century English industrial city than anything you'd expect to find on the edge of the Arabian Sea. Mumbai has vital streetlife, India's best nightlife, and more bazaars than a visitor could ever explore. | ||
