Last week I had an opportunity to have an exclusive preview lunch at Ithaka Mumbai. I have to admit, I went in with a bit of doubt. My thought: Veg Lebanese doesn’t have many options. Maybe they’ll have a few fancy hummus options.

I was wrong. Very wrong.

You have to eat here to believe me.

From the first mushroom cappuccino that was served to the last dessert- chocolate caramel dessert, my taste buds were mesmerized. Every bite was savoured.

I was pleasantly surprised at how wrong my notions were. Being a meat lover, I shamelessly confess that I would go to this veg Lebanese restaurant any day. Below are my explicit reasons:

1. Innovatively prepared dishes
2. Well presented dishes
3. Their Mushroom Cappuccino is the BEST I’ve ever had
4. Closer to office. Opposite to Phoenix Mills. This means, I can go there any time from Monday-Friday!
5. Their desserts. Though they are not all Lebanese but delectable indeed.

Ithaka opens doors on the 17th of February 2015. So if work/live in or around Lower Parel, do give this place a try. A meal for two would cost you approx 1500 INR.

Enjoy the pictures! 🙂
