A tiny new Shivaji Park eatery serving VFM fast food has decent fare, but the service is a let down

Decades after it got rechristened, Swantraveer Savarkar Marg still goes by its colonial moniker — Cadell Road. A century ago, there were open rice fields here. But it now has a posh swagger and iconic landmarks like Shivaji Park, Mahim Dargah and the Siddhivinayak Temple, among others. Along this stretch, there are several drive-and-you-miss-it eateries. On an overcast afternoon, the blood orange interiors of Fou – The Crazy Cafe stand out through the glass door. The tiny place is empty and there is pop-rock music playing as we settle into our seats. The plastic bottle and glass don’t suit our eco-friendly disposition. We realise that the place could look rather busy with only a few people present.
