Come monsoons and
Mumbai suddenly faces a fish crisis. Due to high tides and the birthing season
for fish, there is suddenly a dearth or the prices sky rocket.
But the maaza of
having a Malwani or Konkani fish thali as the rain pounds outside, is something
else.
So Bobby and I
trooped into a small joint with 10 odd tables in Bandra east for one such meal.
The presentation can take a hike as everything is coarse. The crockery is
stainless steel and it is advisable to have bottled water.

Don't try cooking
this dish thinking the recipe is simple. I have never mastered it in two decades
of living in Maharashtra. The gravy always stinks when I attempt it.
It is not cheap
either... a meal for two can put you down by a grand. But it's worth it, a
simple meal with the perfectly cooked curry made with the freshest of catches,
and a darling hubby to keep you company on a working day. It's called a good
day!!!
