Located a stone’s throw away from Chembur’s RK Studios, we could be excused for imagining that we had walked into a film set the moment we stepped into N bar and Grill.

We hoped that the over-the-top interiors would not translate to the food, as good food without any frills is what we were looking for.

Fortunately for us, the food didn’t disappoint. For our starters, we ordered Chilgoza Bharwa Khumb (Rs 310, all prices exclusive of taxes) and Galouti Kebab (Rs 475). From the bar section, we picked Samurai (R495). Surprisingly though, our main course — Veg Lasagna (Rs 385) and Kukkad Koftey (Rs 395) — arrived before the starters. Thankfully, the good food saved this service glitch.
