THE DYING CULTURE OF IRANI CAFES IN MUMBAI | CAFE DE LA PAIX, MUMBAI

#iranifood #khaanemeinkyahai #foodvlog
Back in my childhood times, there used to be an Irani cafe at every nook and each one was buzzing more than the other!
In the present day, there are far and few still running and very few of this generation are aware of them and the fabulous food they serve - The Bun Maska, Brun Maska, Keema Pav, Chicken Sully, and lots more!
This week and the next, I will take you to some old Irani cafes and introduce you to some of their offerings!
Watch, and do visit whenever you get a chance! Trust me, they are worth your time and money!
Location: 67 Jss Road Opera House, Avantikabai Gokhale Marg, Bhatwadi, Girgaon, Mumbai, Maharashtra 400004

    @@sureshpoojary8907 I was being sarcastic. A Marathi guy (probably staying in Mumbai) sounds ecstatic about someone speaking pure Hindi instead of the local and official language i.e. Mararhi. That shows how Marathi people, in general, are so ignorant about their own mother tongue. Marathi has been engulfed by Hindi in Mumbai. Last time I was there I could hardly use it.

These days there are just too many Johnny (Jamshed ?!) come lately wannabe Irani cafes sprouting up; but they are just pin-up duds serving tasteless food with polished up chor bazaar fittings n settings. Cafe De La Paix is indeed a Cafe of Peace & ol' Bombay charm.

    I dont think so that the Irani Cafes are dying but infact they have started prospering in the last 5-10 years. Here in Pune, Irani Cafes are opening up in many areas. In Mumbai, most of the Irani cafes are packed during peak hours with long wait times. Most Irani cafes shut shop in the 90s due to lack of patrons/rising rents however thanks to Food bloggers/vloggers Irani/Parsi cafe have gained popularity again in the last 10 years !
