5 Most Luxurious Bars in Mumbai


Mumbai, the city that never sleeps, is true to its moniker. No wonder there is no dearth of bars in the city. Here’s a list of 5 most luxurious bars!



By: Soumya Jain

As the cocktail culture advances to offer some of the most unique concoctions that can be created by man, Mumbai is adding bars by the minute on its land. But sifting through them all, here are five bars which have impressed me the most!

1. AER Mumbai: Located on the rooftop of Four Seasons Hotel Mumbai, AER Mumbai is still one of the swankiest rooftop bars in the city, if not the highest. The modernist, architectural AER Mumbai makes for a truly memorable drinking and dining experience. There’s an attention to detail that’s rare for Mumbai’s fast growing epicurean scene. Serving an array of chic gourmet teasers, and tapas-style menu, AER Mumbai proves to be a refreshing change to the almost clichéd dining scene in Mumbai.

2. ASILO, St. Regis Mumbai: The newly refurbished Asilo Lounge, located on the 40th floor of the St. Regis hotel, and probably the highest rooftop bar in Mumbai now, offers casual cool with a slice of glamour. With a unique Zen-like vibe and an elegant Mediterranean feel, Asilo has a Cutting-edge, bi-level design. Revel in some gorgeous views of the Arabian Sea.

Coordinates: 462, Tulsi Pipe Rd, Lower Parel, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

3. Dome, InterContinental Mumbai: One of the original rooftop bars in Mumbai, Dome has been pleasantly catering well to the millennials of Mumbai. Offering some stunning views of the Marine Drive, Dome impresses not just with its beyond-the-horizon panaroma, but also with its list of wines, cocktails and even cigars. Definitely, a must-try.

4. Harbour Bar, Taj Mahal Palace Hotel: Coming down to earth, Harbour Bar has the distinction of being the first licensed bar in Mumbai. It opened in 1933, and is still running strong. Although renovated and more contemporary now, nothing can replace the regal feel that this bar has always possessed. Still the go-to place for many, Harbour Place is hands-down an all-round winner for atmosphere, taste and style.

5. Olive Bar & Kitchen: Although not a bar exactly, this glamourous venue boasts ‘Thursday’s Bar Nights’. The restaurant is known to attract some of the most well-known diaspora of Mumbai. No better reason to make a beeline here if you want to welcome the weekend with some panache. Bring in the holiday with creative cocktails such as Jalapeno Honey or Garden of Eden.

What is Teppanyaki? Understanding Japanese Cuisine.

Although there is much involved in the creation of delectable Japanese cuisine, Teppanyaki forms a large part of it, which many misunderstand to be same as hibachi or just grilled food. By: Soumya Jain Japan’s cuisine is as technically precise as it is creating a watch or jewelry. The fish has to be placed just the way and seaweed rolled with just enough pressure to be able to present a perfectly made sushi. Apart from the more popular sushi and sashimi, Teppanyaki also forms a part of Japanese cuisine. To put it in easy words, Teppanyaki uses an iron griddle to cook food. In Japan, ‘teppanyaki’ refers to dishes cooked using an iron plate, including steak, shrimp, vegetables, okonomiyaki (Japanese pancake), yakisoba (Japanese fried noodles), and monjayaki (also a kind of savory Japanese pancake). Modern teppanyaki grills are typically propane-heated flat surface grills and are widely used to cook food in front of guests at restaurants. Teppanyaki grills are commonly ...

The Rise of Indian Luxury Brands

India is no stranger to luxury. But its manifestations have only begun to rise recently. By: Soumya Jain I still remember 2009 and the huge number of trips I made to the newly opened DLF Emporio mall that year, because all international brands were opening their stores one by one at this New Delhi mecca of pure luxury. From Cartier to Dior, international brands had finally found a location apt for their sparkling stores in India. And suddenly, all these brands and the Indian luxury industry were in news. Not that Indian luxury brands didn’t exist before this. They did. After all, who else donned the celebrity and rich brides of India before this era. It’s just that Indian luxury brands were maybe only fixed on the pages of luxury magazines in India . After this time, they became mainstream. Today everybody knows J. J. Valaya, Suneet Varma, Sabyasachi Mukherjee, Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla, Good Earth, Hidesign, Zoya, Forest Essentials, Mirari and the many Indian...
