The Irani Restaurants of Mumbai each had something special about them Kayani for its mini Khaari biscuits, Bastani for the greatest Mutton Mayo Roll of all time, Sassanian for its yum Teacakes, Koolar for that crazy 12 egg Wrestler's Omlet, but they all had Bun Maska and Chai 1/2

Sitting with a hot chai and reminiscing about the rains through all my days and the paraphenilia associated with them and I cant help but think they were fun times!
Buckle up for a lengthy set of tweets or get a cuppa and stare at the rain! 1/n
Living in Mumbai the rains were an integral and eternal aspect of existence.
They were usually announced by the MRF tyre company and almost every single time they failed to arrive on MRF Rain Day!
The Met Dept was likewise clueless back then (it is much better these days)
2/n
It was also when the new school year started!
Schools all opened around the 6th or 9th of June and parents spent that week and weeks after that cursing their kids and buying stationary, text books, uniforms and rain gear for them and themselves! 3/n

I have been thinking about samosas for the last week & here is a thread about them. For starters the Samosa comes from West Asia and was originally meat wrapped in a dough cone and fried - the sambusak! The only truly veg versions are all Indian! #Samosa #Sambusak #PunjabiSamosa
I grew up in Mumbai eating what is now known as the Parsi/Bohri Samosa and which I simply knew as a Samosa. Lightly spiced lamb mince cooked with onions, green chillies and corriander, stuffed into a triangular pocket made from flat precooked sheets of samosa patti. #Samosa
These were then slowly fried in hot (not too hot) oil till golded brown & served with a typically Parsi Green chutney made with coconut, mint, corriander, peppercorns, green chutney & lime juice. These treats were rare and cherished! #Samosa

The Irani Cafes of Bombay had close friends in the Irani Bakeries that dotted the old city. Whilst writing about the Cafes a lot of people asked me about them and I thought today would be an ideal day to talk about Bakeries in Mumbai #IraniBakeries #MumbaiBakeries
#pau
The 1st bakers of Mumbai were the Paowallas as they were affectionately called ie the Goans & they set up a whole slew of simple bakeries making pau and poie all over the city. They were continuing a Portuguese legacy. The word pau is the Portuguese word for bread #MumbaiBakeries
The Portuguese brought serious bread making to the Indian shores and bread soon became a staple in Goa & other Portuguese Colonies. The French, Dutch & British too brought their share of breads & bakery products, this is not to say there were no bakeries in India #MumbaiBakeries
