O Pedro - Kolad

Yet another fantastic evening at our favourite restaurant in the country. An impromptu dinner date saw us at the doors of O Pedro. I have a feeling there is something magnetic which draws us to this place anytime we are in Mumbai. Since this was a last minute plan and O Pedro is usually packed we weren’t sure of getting a table but the guys were nice enough to get us a bar seating for two. <br/ Our host for the evening was Satish and he was absolutely the best we have seen in a long time. His suggestions were spot on. I was a bit wary of the mushroom Ceviche although the Red Snapper Ceviche is my favourite dish there and we ordered that for sure. The sound of a mushroom variant wasn’t too appealing but Satish insisted we give it a try and now I am so glad we did. It is fabulous. A note. Resist the temptation to order seconds of the same dish. There is plenty of amazing food choices for mains and you need to keep some space for that. The 3rd starter was the prawn balchao with a Poi, the Goan bread. Finger licking delicious. <br/ <br/ Our main course was the Beryls fish curry, made with dried mango and kokum coconut milk. It goes best with the Goan Red Rice. Yet another combo that you want to keep on eating long after your stomach has sent signals that there is no more space. <br/ <br/ Satish suggested that we try the Chicken Xacuti curry however the Beryls being our favourite, we didn’t want to give up this opportunity of having what we love. Lo behold, he was incredibly sweet and got us a small bowl of the curry to try. It too is delicious and I’d surely order it next time. <br/ <br/ Our standard go to Dessert is the Lisboa pas-tel de na-ta. It’s a warm egg custard tart with cinnamon ice cream. My mouth is watering as I write this review. It is in my opinion their signature dish. <br/ <br/ What did break our hearts is that another brilliant dessert is not on the menu anymore. The cold goat cheese roll with pistachios. <br/ <br/ Dear O Pedro please bring this one back. The lack of this reduces your star rating from a 7 to a measly 5. <br/ 
Seeing our disappointment, Satish made yet another suggestion. The Aunty’s Li’s serradura. It’s made with condensed milk and whipped cream, toasted biscuit crumbles, strawberries coulis and fresh strawberries. Though it doesn’t make up for the goat cheese roll it is a terrific dessert as well. <br/ <br/ O Pedro has a terrific collection of Gin. We tried 4 different ones with elderflower tonic water. Each one was delicious. <br/ <br/ Hats off O Pedro you have been and continue to be our absolute favourite. And you have a gem of a host in Satish. <br/ <br/ 2 suggestions. <br/ <br/ 1. Get the Goat cheese roll back. <br/ <br/ 2. Open a restaurant in Delhi soon.

There is really no place like this in the world, forget Mumbai. The eclectic menu is second to none it doesn’t matter who you are, you are going to be exposed to something that you have never tried before in your life. During these tough times this is the closest thing to the good old days that you are going to find. The Pork Chops, chicken curry and egg tarts are some of the things that you have to order.

Roasted Cauliflower Cal Deen its Cauliflower cooked with fresh turmeric coconut milk curry served with rice bhakari, kaddu ki sabji, healthy sprouts salad kokum kadi . The taste of both the curries was just perfect, the salad with lil salt compliments the taste buds. Choriz tacos were superb – crisp tacos with super tasty chorizo – brilliant taste and flavour. Poee was a lovely nice Goan bread that was super soft and had an enjoyable fermented flavour. Cashew in spirit was a recommended dish. Super loved it. Loved the layers of taste and flavour, the pungency and the madness in the drink.

In the month of Jan, I was in mumbai with my family. We have visited this place and had weekday lunch plate. Was awesome tase with the chutney add. Very nice place havd good ambiance.

Lovely place, good vibe, spacious rooms with kitchenette, breakfast is delicious. Love the vintage furniture all around the hotel. Good value for money. And location is easy reachable by tube.<br/ <br/ I’m so glad that on Valentine’s Day, a day in which every place was fully booked, I stumbled into Green Rooms. And what a happy coincidence! <br/ The food was priced well, and tasted amazing. There was a long wait for the food but I was well informed this would be the case, and in the end it was well worth the wait. <br/ The great food was also accompanied by good customer service. Overall very happy with my service.
