Sweet tea and chocolate mousse house

There's this quaint li'l bakery in the alleyways behind Horniman Circle called the Yazdani Bakery. Not exactly sure what it's supposed to be - Irani or whatever, but the tea here is heavenly sweet, and tastes amazing with the buttered buns they serve you. :) Came here with the Mad Bawi once, and we hogged on mushroom qiche and then chocolate muffins. Also picked up a whole 1 lb chocolate brownie cake, and that lasted all of three days in my fridge. The menu is appetising, as you can tell...


And then there's the Cafe Mocambo - owned by Parsis, it serves the most yummy Continental food I've tasted in Bombay. The Pork Schnitzels are to die for, the lasagne is great, the roast beef is mouthwatering and... and I'm running out of adjectives here. :) I remember most one time here: brother darling and I had come to town for lunch, on a day when the rest of the city was reeling under riots (some silly incident about some defaced statue), and we'd thought that the situation would get defused soon. Well, when we reached Mocambo's, we discovered that while the restaurant was packed to capacity inside, all the blinds and shades were drawn down, making it seem closed from the outside! :)


O, and one cannot leave Mocambo's without sampling the dessert trolley!
