Healthy’ and ‘tasty’ really go together here

Aradhana Janga comes across 'In the Pink', an organic store cum restaurant and finds the thali satisfying and yummy.

When you feel really really satisfied after a meal, it’s worth a mention. "In the Pink" is tucked away on a road where you least expect it; a thoroughfare but maybe you missed noticing it because you were trying to beat the traffic?

But what’s so special about the place anyway? Well, for one it boasts of being "Organic", a restaurant and a store all in one. The store has been around for over a year now and stocks vegetables, bulk rice, lentils, wheat flour etc., as well as organic brand names such as 24 Letter Mantra and Kumaon.

The restaurant opened recently and is spacious. At the moment provides only south Indian thalis for lunch and dinner; north indian thalis will be launched soon.

The restaurant claims their chefs are trained on Ayurvedic cooking style and Indian traditional cooking methods to make the food nutritious and hygienic.

The South Indian meals have everything you could hope for complete with soft pulkas/puris, curry, pakoras, papad, rasam, sambhar, koorma and organic rice in 4 varieties – plain, curd rice, fried rice and pulao. Oh, did I forget to mention a couple of sweets to ensure you go home happy?!

Mumbai’s invisible beaches: A photo-story

Mumbai's shoreline may be famous for iconic beaches like Juhu and Girgaum but there's much more to it, says a city photographer.

Once a year, I inadvertently overhear someone wondering aloud about the sea level while crossing the Mahim or Thane Creek bridges without realising that the sea has tides. Similar conversations are heard at the beaches too. The Bandra Worli Sea Link, which now features in almost every movie about Mumbai, as seen from Mahim. Pic: MS Gopal Not being aware of tides often leads to lovers being stranded on the rocks along the coast, or even people getting washed away by waves during the monsoons. People regularly throng the sea-fronts of Mumbai - sometimes the beaches, sometimes the promenades, but…
