Kyani & Co., Marine Lines

A Bombay favourite for over 100 years, it’s unlikely that a Mumbaikar hasn’t eaten at Kayani. It’s a local favourite, a tourist haunt and a historic Irani cafe where several movies have been shot too. It still holds a lot of its original decor in place: Scandinavian bentwood chairs, panelled wood and mirrors on walls, and chequered cloth tables with glass tops. We’re obviously recommending Kayani & Co., for its keema ghotala and pav, but there’s a lot you can eat here for breakfast. Their breakfast section includes mostly chicken sausages and fried egg plates, but they have a dedicated omelette and egg section on their menu too.
