When I stepped into the Westin Mumbai, I was undoubtedly captivated by the seaside beauty the city had to offer. On a sunny afternoon, I decided to give it a go and take advantage of the Westin’s luxurious restaurants. So, I headed to Lake View Cafe, where I knew I could experience a truly extraordinary food theater with unrivaled lake views. What a spectacular restaurant! I was determined to let go and truly relax in this delightful environment, so I took the opportunity and let it be.
The moment I got LVC’s signature cocktail “By The Lake”, I knew I was in for a crazy ride! This heady concoction is a delightful blend of Beefeater gin, house-made bitters, cucumber, orange slices, olives and smoked rosemary – a delicious symphony sure to tantalize your palate! If you’re looking for a picturesque place to sip this delightful beverage, look no further than the Westin Lake Café. Standing by the peaceful Powai Lake, you can gaze upon the majestic Hiranandani skyline and let time pass by in its splendor. The views here are simply stunning – and I haven’t forgotten them yet!
If you’re looking for an exciting experience, you’re sure to be excited by the hotel’s selection of Indian and Continental cuisine! I recently had the pleasure of trying both the buffet and the à la carte menu, and the food and service were excellent. I even had the pleasure of meeting Executive Chef Sahil Arora, who added to the cheery vibe of my visit by sharing the fascinating history behind my favorite restaurant. What an unforgettable experience!
After a great chat with Executive Chef Sahil Arora, I quickly realized Marriott’s unwavering commitment to making sure their food is as authentic as possible. He wowed me with oriental overtones that were not only the same, but each had a unique flavor. It’s thrilling to be surrounded by European surroundings and Mediterranean elements while enjoying all kinds of Asian flavors. LVC gives me the best of both worlds—fresh food and a healthier approach—in one place, which makes it all the more exciting.
Taste the 18-hour braised lamb shank, a wonderful harmony of northern and southern cuisine. This menu item is sure to tantalize your taste buds and make your mouth water in no time!
Brunch starts with a bang! We enjoyed the mouth-watering Pearl Fish, a classic Sichuan delicacy loved by specialty restaurants across China. It didn’t stop there – red wine poached pears, a zesty arugula and feta salad, and grilled salmon and salsa verde in betel leaves came a close second, making it more Sichuan than Cantonese!
At Lake View Cafe, the fish fillets are seasoned just right, with the flavor of a busy Chinese street. Red Wine Poached Pear, Arugula and Feta Salad is a delightful treat – a delicious green salad topped with crunchy chopped nuts for a little extra crunch. A truly tantalizing feast for the eyes and taste buds!
I finished my brunch on a high note with an absolutely mouth-watering traditional betel leaf grilled salmon with salsa. This dish was without a doubt the star of the day – a real highlight! Every item on the Lake View Cafe menu deserves praise, especially the classics. Service and lake view? Simply extraordinary!
