The Urban Foundry is the newest addition to go and chill , dine , dance or just be in Colaba. As the name suggests, the mechanics game of this place is strong . Confused much? They have lot of inspiration from machinery and mechanics. Let me break down the technicalities for you . The fork and spoon also have screwdriver and tools as inspiration. Now let me tell you, what impressed me. It’s the menu. Very elaborate thought out drinks menu and good insightful food menu . From being like a typical nerdy engineer diagrams and anatomy break downs, the menu has lot of elements to it .
Enough of blabber . Let’s get to business.
The menu has drinks like “Do the can can” where there are lot of fruity drinks and all inspired .
Community binging is where you all can share a drink for 650-750 with taxes .
For cocktails, I had the Knuckle up . The glass was fancy . It has lemongrass pomegranate and vodka and was nice !
Now let’s get to the food, they have Hindi + English names and kind of difficult to read . But that means you pay more attention.
I had the japani 6 inch pizzas which is basically Japanese style pizzas .
Roasted red capsicum & mushroom truffle pizza . I found it okay as I am really less fond of Truffle oil .
Next up, loved the spinach dimsums completely .
The flavours of my next appetiser “paneer chilly gyoza” were strong and tasty.
I also had the olive Feta kulcha . It’s different in its own way. Also do have it with the chutney they serve.
For main course aka what they call the
The large thermodynamics
I tried Indian :
Paneer makhanwala with garlic naan :
Simple soul food and good flavours .
For Asian I had the Sichuan Tofu . The Tofu was extremely soft and the Sichuan had the right flavours !
And what excited me the most was desserts.
They had Beer A misu which was tiramisu with beer and motichoor sushi!
I tried samundar ka moti which was a chocolate ball and they put alcohol on top . What I liked about this dish was the pistachio ganache that they had used inside
Next I loved the gajar ka halwa frozen kulfi . The combination was great .
Overall loved the place . The wooden decora, the appeal to all kinds of people : dance then you have dancing space , eat then seating place, by the bar tables and private dining rooms making it good huh to chill or rave !
