    After an afternoon nap, I woke up and figured I should eat some dinner, so we just went down one of the restaurants in our hotel (Sun-n-Sand). Jeff had the rice curd and I had the paneer khada masala and the murgh makhani (butter chicken). Nothing special, but adequate for a convenient quick meal to

    We made a quick stop for milk tea at this location at the recommendation of our driver. There was a richness to it, I assume due to the full fat milk. It was delicious.

    Jeff and I were pretty tired having just arrived to Mumbai this morning, so to make it easy on ourselves, we just ate out at Namak the Indian restaurant in our hotel (Sahara Star). When we walked in sometime after 1pm, we weren’t even sure they were open yet since we were the first diners

    We were just looking for a low key dinner this Wednesday evening, so we decided to just dine in our neighborhood. I’m always up for sushi so Saru seemed like a good option, esp. if we could get seating at the bar. They don’t take reservations and it’s a small restaurant (I think 6 tables
