From decadent ghee-drenched thalis in Borivali to spicy South Indian khichdis in Powai, these spots are making classic home-style meals Instagram-worthy—and utterly addictive
Munch Box Thali
Chef Payal Thakkar’s recently launched 85-seater thali place in Borivali combines comfort with a premium experience. It puts forth a lavish spread with dal baati choorma, dhokla, dahi bhalla, farsans, a range of shaak, and sweet dishes of jalebi-rabdi, fruit custard, mohanthal and a lot more delights. Slow cooked to the perfect consistency, the rice and lentils come together in a soft, luscious blend that feels both hearty and soothing. A generous touch of ghee brings out a beautiful aroma, while gentle spices add just the right depth without taking away from its classic, homely flavour. It delivers a rich, flavourful experience that stays with you long after the meal. Kadhi, papad and pickles for company with aamras flowing freely alongside, it feels truly blissful.
