The newly-opened Tailor Bar in Andheri East serves food that’s familiar and delectable
There was a measuring tape running along the length of the table and when we placed our feet on the foot pedal below, we could actually move it up and down to get a feel of the vintage sewing machine. The bar stools were in the shapes of buttons, the door handles resemble needles and even the bill came nestled inside a decorative iron. Welcome to the Tailor Bar, where everything from the décor to the names of the dishes, gives a feel of a darzi ki dukaan.
We sat under a canopy of bright interwoven yarn threads and scanned through the menu that came attached to clothes hangers. Cocktail names such as Ek Number Maal (Rs 395) and Kaichi ki Dhaar (Rs 395) caught our eye and we placed our orders. While the former was a slightly confusing mix of cinnamon, vodka and guava juice infused with beer, the latter was a mouthful! Spicy chillies, basil, ginger and chaat masala mixed in gin made this one heady drink. Taking a break from the alcohol, we tried the Ek Bilaang Cut (Rs 185), which was a refreshing cooler made of orange mojito, basil and lemon chunks.
Staying away from deconstructed dishes that mostly disappoint, we had ordered the Vada Pao Salad (Rs 295) with a little hesitation, but we needn’t have worried. The vada pao was flavourful and complimented the crunchy croutons, bell peppers and onions. Bringing it all together was the chutney and crunchy sev on top. The Jamaican Chicken Wings (Rs 285) got a nod from us for the spicy kick it delivered but we would stay away from the Paneer Scramble (Rs 145). It was too bland and even the dash of ketchup couldn’t save it.
The upside came again in the form of the mains. The Vilaiti Pizza (Rs 305) was a comforting dish, with veggies such as bell peppers and mushrooms on a thin crust with housemade tomato ketchup. From the Indian section, we tried the Chicken Kheema Masala (Rs 385). The kheema was surprisingly less oily and delicious. Served with garlic naan, this one was a hit.
Verdict: While there was no dish that made us made us go va-va-voom, the interesting décor, comfort food and the reasonable pricing will definitely be attractive factors for everyone.
At: Tailor Bar, 45, Telly Park Street, near Andheri (E).
