GREENS RESTAURANT, MALAD WEST
A place very hard to miss when you are driving on the link road between malad and goregaon, Greens is a restaurant which has become a landmark and even the rickshaw-walas know this place. And anyone who visits this place will totally agree with the popularity of this place. Famous for its South Indian, North Indian and Fast food items, it is very difficult to come out of this place dissatisfied. We are regulars at this restaurant and would recommend it to everyone to try it atleast once. We bring to you North Indian Cuisine this time and we bet you are going to be very hungry by the time you get done reading this review.

Starting with the starters, we had asked the manager to suggest us their speciality and he told us to order Paneer Tikka and Veg Manchurian Dry. Thinking okay a regular dish we were waiting for it and as soon as we saw it we had a jaw-dropping expression on our face ( I am not exaggerating....you will believe when you see the photos). The paneer was fresh, the masala on the paneer tikka blended to perfection and the taste of those authentically grilled tikkas is what we experienced in this plate. The Manchurian also tasted as good as the tikkas and we were in a food bubble by the time main course arrived. For the main course we had ordered ( again on the recommendation of the manager ) Paneer Mumtaz with Roomali Roti, Butter Kulcha and Butter Roti. Panner Mumtaz sounds different and as the name suggests tastes different as well but “Different in a good sense” – it is panner stuffed with a mixture of capsicum and boiled green peas and dipped in red gravy with chunks of paneer (So much paneer!!) and it is neither too spicy nor too bland on taste and the texture also is different – something between not too smooth and not too coarse. The Roomali roti was excellent but I would suggest having Butter roomali roti and not plain. The Kulcha was so good that you could eat it alone without needing any subzi to accompany it and so was the tandoori roti ( it’s a speciality according to Ajeenkya). We then ordered Tawa Pulav, again a favourite of ours. The veggies in the pulav are always crunchy and the dish on the whole has a subtle taste -  a properly balanced dish we can say. For the desert we ordered Kulfi Falooda and it was pure heaven. Falooda sev topped with sabja seeds topped with rose flavoured milk accompanied with raspberry jelly and kulfi slices this dish a devil in its purest form. You just cannot resist biting into it as soon as you see it.

So as it can be made out from the menu, we had a feast and then we could hardly move after the meal. An important thing to be noted is this is one restaurant which is easy on the pocket and heavy on the quantity. The quantity they provide easily feeds three people in one order. The staff also is quite friendly and always has a welcoming smile on the face. We suggest visiting this place with family when you want to celebrate dinner time so that you don’t have to worry atleast about the food and its quality and quantity!

And we won’t keep you waiting any more...go scroll!!!!
