May 6, 2023Stories of Mumbai food - We were a group of 2 - mother and son from Delhi. I really liked how our guide Krupesh told all the stories related to food in Mumbai and how... read more it was invented, why is it so famous. He was very friendly and patient and clicked our pictures. Having him as a tour guide really gave us lot of new knowledge about how life is in Mumbai. Being from Delhi, we were very fascinated with how people live in Mumbai and how is the street food like. He took us to all famous places for Vada Pav, Pav Bhaji, Puri Bhaji, Bun Maska and Faluda. More than the food, just go for the stories and the history around food, like how the Vada Pav was first made, how the Pav Bhaji was started and all that. He also informed us about the history of Parsi in Mumbai and we also went to an authentic Irani cafe for its rich culture and iconic setup.

She was exceedingly smart, and fun to hang out with, and accommodating with my son and with our just off the plane jetlag, having arrived only 8 hours before our day began California.
I really appreciated seeing some important monuments in Delhi that despite having been to the city many times before had never managed to visit such as Humayun's Tomb, Jama Masjid in Old Delhi.
We loved visiting the ittar studio where we were able to smell many ittars and even mix our own. These miraculously made it home without spilling and are a beautiful reminder of our day. Of course the food was fun too, a morning snack followed by lunch exposed us to local foods we would never had known how to order on our own.
The day also mixed different forms of transport - from walking to being in the taxi to riding in rickshaws to different parts of the city, we felt like we were able to safely explore and get the vibe of this busy city.
Really incredible day and I highly recommend, especially on the front end of a trip as it is a great acclimatizer to India.

We drove around the city, stopping at various buildings and museums to hear a bit about the background of each. A short train ride across Mumbai City showed insight into another side of Indian life. Thankfully, the train wasn't packed! The bollywood dance session was so much fun! Priyanka, our instructor, had mastered almost a minute's worth of dance moves to tack together for us! It was impressive for people who hadn't had a clue when we entered the studio! This was definitely a highlight of this tour and so much fun! Lunch at a small local restaurant was excellent, but very rushed. With so many fabulous dishes, we'd have loved more time to sit with our guide and chat about local etiquette & learn more about life in general in India. Afterwards, we weren't exactly sure what our "5 senses" had been, but nevertheless, it was a great half day trip - we'd just have liked a bit longer to digest our enormous lunch! 🙂
