Ask a Mumbaikar, 'What’s your favourite restaurant?' and be prepared for a long answer. Or a 'handy sheet (updating constantly)'. Recently a Reddit post – 'What do I absolutely have to eat in Mumbai? Restaurant edition' – grabbed attention. A Redditor responded to it with, "My time has come. I’ve made this handy sheet (updating constantly) for just this occasion."  

Mumbai's restaurant culture spans everything from fine-dining temples and Italian joints to family-style dosa shops and much, much more. That was perfectly reflected in the Redditor's collection of some of the most interesting and exciting restaurants in Mumbai, titled ‘What to eat when you are eating!’
