GYPSY Restaurant, Shivaji Park.
Anybody looking out for a good, genuine Chinese Restaurant in Mumbai? I would straight away recommend the Gypsy at Shivaji Park. Strategically located in the lane opposite the famous Sena Bhavan, going towards Shivaji Park, this restaurant is a delight for vegetarian and non-vegetarian fans of Chinese cuisine.
Right from the time one enters the restaurant, the courteous staff make you feel very comfortable and at ease. Those that are ‘spiritually’ inclined, can start off with a beer or a variety of hard liquors.
As for me, I conserve the space in my tummy for the main course! Once the order has been placed, the steward brings freshly made ‘kimchi’ salad. My favourite soup is the “Burnt Ginger Soup” with a choice of vegetarian or chicken or prawn toppings.
The main course has a great variety to offer – Eggplant in hot garlic sauce, Baby corn, mushroom and spinach in white sauce, Chicken Manchurian, Shredded Lamb which is so tender and succulent that it literally melts in the mouth, and a host of other dishes to suit all palates.
I would sincerely recommend this restaurant to everybody for real good Chinese cuisine, and the ever-smiling and courteous staff.
Have a good time!!
