Irani Cafe in South Indian den at Matunga
Among the few holding Irani cafes in the city, is Koolar&Co. Situated near the matunga circle is this small cafe. As you enter you see pictures of newspaper clippings of New York times informing about the sinking of the Titanic Ship. Then there is a big poster of Samantha Fox and the lead pair of the film Titanic, Leonardo and Kate. It seems the owner is a big fan of the film.
The typical irani cafe rules---don't sit for too long, order will be served in 15 minutes, once order is placed will not be cancelled and a TABLE RESERVED FOR LADIES AND FAMILY are all up there. The now short staff cafe serves dishes like Irani Wrestler Sandwich, Keema Pav, Irani Honey Bun muska. The best is kheema pav and bhurji, if the hunger pangs are not bursting then there is the 2-minute Maggi noodles which is one of the USP and great runner among college students, who often are the only customers at Koolar.
After meals for tea totlers there is strong Istanbul Tea or the pani cum chai. But how can you not have the caramel custard in a parsi resto it would be cruel on the parsi community, which feels they discovered the dish. Here the custard is small in size but good, go for it. My friend Dilnaz who introduced the place to me said "Nallu custard chee". Finally here the bill is given at the table but payments to be made only at the cash counter.
