More recently, the café has been trending on social media as it is all set to open in Mumbai at the Eros building in Churchgate. The café is not only being visited by food influencers but also by Mumbaikars, who were invited to experience its free food trial from March 2 to 5, with long queues seen outside the railway station during Holi.
Must-try dishes at Rameshwaram Cafe
If you have been to the other outlets across India, then you are already an expert, but if it is your first time, then you will like a lot of delicious dishes there. While you can try out the ghee podi idli, and the filter coffee, there are many other traditional must-try South Indian dishes to not only explore but enjoy there.
The beauty of this outlet is that they have a Jain version of the puri bhaji, for which the vegetable is usually made from potatoes, but will be replaced with banana, commonly used a vegetable in south India.
What is in The Rameshwaram Cafe in Mumbai?
While the eatery traditionally has a standing dining area at its other outlets where people can expect fast service, the Mumbai area also has a seated dining area spread across the first floor of the two floor-restaurant at Churchgate.
Additionally, the cafe also has a private dining area, and a separate scenic section for people who want to work out of there, with a charging sockets, making it ideal for many Mumbaikars, who have switched to work-from-home after the Covid-19 pandemic.
