There are three things that matter in property: location, location, location’. The quote is often attributed to Lord Harold Samuel, one of UK’s biggest property tycoons. Samuel’s theory can be applied to hotels and restaurants as well -- who would want to go to an upscale restaurant at a barely accessible spot? For its top-notch location, Long & Short, The GastroBar in the Intercontinental Hotel at Marine Drive scores a brownie point. The restaurant is styled as a comfortable, yet hip living room. The walls are covered with pictures of celebrities like Amitabh Bachchan and Sachin Tendulkar, amongst others. There is also that unmistakable sign of Mumbai life -- the dabbas and the dabbawallahs. There is outdoor seating out on the balcony which overlooks the sea, for a cool evening and cooler drink.
