We arrive during Persia Darbar in Jogeshwari (West) during 9 pm on a Wednesday, armed with a voracious appetite, usually to learn that a Iftaar equipment are roughly over. But a owner, Faizan Jawed, a fresh-faced 22-year-old, offers to ready a dishes afresh.

Seekh parathas on Yari Road
Dynamites, we’ve heard, come in tiny packages, and tiny food pockets are a contingency revisit during Ramzan. By 7 pm, a stalls, sparse in and around Yari Road, are alive by dull stomachs. We started a eve during owners Asad Lashkarya’s Yari Chote Miyan in Zohra Aghadi Nagar. Chicken hurl (Rs 40), seekh kebab (Rs 50), chicken/mutton bhuna (Rs 70) and naan sandwich (Rs 50) are hotsellers here. While we can’t omit a sheen, a food here is slightest greasy of a lot.

The workers have been scheming for hours to askance a meat, marinate it for a bhuna and stimulate a mix for a naans.
The phirni, on a other hand, is served cold. Down a road, off Yari Road, eateries Seekh Paratha Inn and Treat Way Inn have set adult tables along a line for iftar and sehari. We punch into a oil-laden seekh kebab paratha (Rs 50), and a cooking duck hits all a right notes. The aftertaste, we realise, is of fire. But, there’s phirni for a honeyed ending. Treat Way Inn is a stop for Malpuas. A bit too most ghee, and inexhaustible on a mawa, it’s usually endorsed if we can omit a calories. Try their tawa specials, mutton sandwich (Rs 50) and sharp gurda kalegi (Rs 200). If we caring to travel down a prolonged line that opens on JP Road, Shaheen Biryani Corner is a contingency stop for a dum biryani (Rs 750 per kg) and duck tikka (Rs 100) and Murg kali mirch tikka (Rs 120). Chef Mustafa Ansari, who learnt a tricks of a trade and renouned Tosha Biryani in Versova, tells us his garam masala, that he learnt to make from a bawarchi in Raigad, is his success secret.
Mutton samosas during Shahi Pakwan
If you’re daunted by a location, a mutton cutlets during Shahi Pakwan in Mira Road (east) will safeguard we forget a distance. Although it offers a accumulation of cuisines from Mughlai, desi Chinese to North Indian, a biggest pull is a far-reaching array of Ramadan dishes.

“You should come during 4 am (pre emergence meal) when we have some-more than 20 dishes including mutton khichda (Rs 110), kheema (Rs 75), firni (Rs 35), and malpuva brimful with rabdi (Rs 120),” says owners Abdul Aziz, who set adult a 100-seater eatery 4 years ago.
Although a grill sees a solid upsurge of Muslims during this season, it has an equally vast non-Muslim clientele, who line adult for takeaways. The direct for a mutton cutlets and mutton samosas, both labelled during Rs 15, surpasses a haleem. “We ready about 1,000 cutlets and samosas per day, and they fly off a shelves,” says a 40-year-old.
Malai Drum and Dal Gosht during Janata
The slight highway of LBS Marg nearby Kalpana Cinemas in Kurla West is a hotspot for anyone looking to provide their tastebuds. There is one grill that stands out from a rest: Janata (Tawa Grill). And this one is open compartment 4 am.
Malai drum
The dishes to try are a Malai Drum (Rs 200 per plate, 4 pieces) that is 4 leg pieces soaked in a platter of thick, white, masaledar malai. No dish that includes jeera rice or rotis, can be finish but a wealthy portion of dal. A thick yellow dal brewed with pieces of mutton in it, Janata’s Dal Gosht (Rs 180) is one to savour, even by itself.
JJ Jalebis
North of Janata, right during a finish of a reserve of restaurants and crash conflicting Kalpana Cinemas, is a JJ Jalebi stall. Their jalebis (Rs 60 for 250 gm + Rs 50 for a play of rabidi) are crispy hot, and are really most compulsory after a complicated insatiable meal. This, dipped into their cold, sweet, rabidi, is zero reduction than sinful.
