One of our favourite south Indian joints in the city, the new Thangabali in Bandra is bigger and better than ever before. While favourites like TFC (Thangabali Fried Chicken) and Butter Chilli Prawn Fry still stand strong as popular choices on the menu, additions like Nalli Massam and Crab Ajadina are a flavour-packed joyride. Always stressing on local produce and Ayurvedic culinary inspirations, if Thangabali’s expansive menu is not reason enough, the well-stocked bar should tip the scales. The leisurely vibe, emulating a veranda of a traditional Chettinad home, with laminated pillars and temple bells, makes it a unique pub experience.
