7 Restaurants in Mumbai That’ll Sizzle Up Your Meal

As a child, I was extremely scared of sizzlers. The spitting and the steam that engulfed us as soon as the dish arrived at the table did not amuse me; food is supposed to be quiet, simple and not resemble a wild animal. However, as I grew older I came to understand the beauty of a sizzler. Here is a dish with a mind of its own, that captures all your senses. Now the steam that rises from the dish and its tantalising smell is the gateway that prepares you for the delicious food that lie beyond. To explore the mystery of the perfect sizzler visit these restaurants in Mumbai:

Kobe’s Sizzlers

Where: Chowpatty, Bandra, Andheri West

As its name suggests, Kobe’s is an understated restaurant that makes its business all about the sizzlers. Very often, your conversation may be stalled by the noise that accompanies the sizzlers arriving at your neighbours table, but when you get your own it’ll be oh so worth it.
