Nowadays I hardly go out to eat in a restaurant for one of my hobby on weekend is to cook myself which is a great stress buster, I take pride in cooking and enjoy eating as well ;-), But I also love venturing out in search of some simple, quiet restaurants or street foods which people swear by in different areas of Mumbai and trust me there is no dearth of such places in and around my city of Mumbai. Been born and bought up in Mumbai, I have grown up eating simple Maharashtrian dishes like our very own Vada pav, or Pav bhaji or Missal pav and list can go on and on These cuisines which were once poor man's staple food are now not only available in other cities across India but can even be found on menu of some of the best restaurants across the globe. One of the famous Maharashtrian dish is Missal Pav, Missal being a spicy curry usually made of sprouted moth beans, topped with farsan and sprinkled with onions, coriander and lemon juice, served with bread rolls commonly called Pav.
