A plate in a box might sound convenient, nonetheless not terribly appetising. Those were a thoughts using by a minds as we motionless to check out The Bowl Box, a recently non-stop takeaway in Mahim. And we’re blissful we were valid wrong!

The Bowl Box dishes out an endless menu with Asian, Indian, Italian and even Mediterranean plate boxes. In addition, they have options for 8-inch pizzas, rolls, appetisers, a kids’ menu, pressed pav, salad bowls, tandoori cuisine, and a apart one-bowl plate territory too.

The dishes arrived in stout boxes

We placed a sequence and were betrothed smoothness in 45 minutes. But it took an hour. In their defence, we had systematic a sum of 7 items. Strangely, we couldn’t try out dishes from a kids’ menu, as we were sensitive that those dishes need a day’s notice to be made.

Asian Meal Box

The food came finished in neat black containers with see-through lids. A tag printed with The Bowl Box’s name and trademark also gimlet a name of a dish, and had parasite boxes to assistance we now tell a disproportion between vegetarian and non-vegetarian items.

We started with one of a quirkier offerings: a 8-inch Mumbai Pav Bhaji Pizza (Rs 225 not thorough of taxes). Fusion can go terribly wrong ; an Indian travel food case and a ristorante didn’t seem to go good together in a heads.

But a pav bhaji came with a chatpata flavour, while a cheese widespread out expensively on tip tickled a palate. Surprisingly, a sharp and cheesy flavours complemented any other perfectly.

Next came an Asian plate box – Basil and Burnt Garlic Rice, with Thai Curry and Chicken Fry (Rs 300). The Thai curry didn’t ambience really Thai, reminding us a bit instead of a Chinese Schezwan sauce. The Chicken Fry was crunchy and flavoured with spices. The plate also came with a salad – strips of carrots and cucumber – and a inexhaustible cube of spirit with a drizzle of chocolate sauce. The spirit was abounding and moist, and a ideal approach to finish a plate (box).

Then came a Italiano plate box – veggies in a tawny basil sauce, with garlic bread and tossed potatoes (Rs 300). On a menu, this meal, too, is advertised with a salad and dessert. But it came but either, or even a garlic bread. The plate itself was filling, though, interjection to a corrupted white salsa and a inexhaustible apportionment of vegetables.

The one-bowl plate of Chilli Chicken Rice (Rs 250) lived adult to a name and had bite, creation it ideal for a ambience that craves spices. There was a inexhaustible volume of rice; we usually wish that there had been a few some-more duck pieces.

From a pressed pav section, we opted for Kheema Mutter (Rs 250), that done it to a list of favourites (along with a pizza). It came finished with crunchy fryums on top. The pav was superfluous with kheema-mutter, that was softly spiced and nonetheless tangy, and a apportionment was large adequate to make this a plate in itself.

While we attempted a appetisers during a time of smoothness (so we’d know what they tasted like prohibited and fresh), saving them for after in a day, they tasted only as good when re-heated in their microwave-friendly containers.

The sour Barbecue Chicken Wings (Rs 225) was honeyed and sharp interjection to a homemade grill salsa with honey. The Veggie Manchurian Style (Rs 200) had greens doused in spices, nonetheless it would have been improved had they mentioned in a menu that this plate is dry.

But in annoy of a few lapses, overall, The Bowl Box offers tasty treats during reasonable rates. And we’ll be certain to give it another shot.
