Mumbai's culinary scene has a delightful newcomer that's taking the traditional mithai experience to a whole new level. Inspired by the captivating Art Deco movie theaters of the city, the newly unveiled Bombay Sweet Shop in Bandra presents a fusion of creativity and Indianness. This enchanting space, designed by Shonan Purie Trehan of LAB, brings together different experience zones where you can indulge in delectable treats or pick up mithai from the retail offering.

Gone are the days of a conventional mithai shop – Bombay Sweet Shop embraces a whimsical, contemporary approach that beautifully merges the past and present. It's a place where you can satiate your cravings with inventive, 100% vegetarian sweets and savories that cater to any occasion. From mid-day snacks to late-night cravings, Bombay Sweet Shop offers an array of original flavor combinations that reimagine traditional Indian sweets.

As you step inside, you'll be greeted by a vibrant display of sweets juxtaposed with navy blue and sunshine yellow interiors. The inviting café-like seating at the center beckons you to relish a selection of contemporary Indian sweets, desserts, chaat, and coffee. And if you prefer to enjoy the outdoors, the seating outside is perfect for savoring cups of coffee or catching up with friends over chaat.

A highlight of the shop is the namkeen (savory) dispenser, reminiscent of classic slot machines. Pull the lever and enjoy a free sample of the diverse namkeen offerings. The space's design draws inspiration from the illustrious history of Art Deco movie theaters in Bombay, creating an atmosphere that's both nostalgic and whimsical.

The warm mustard yellow terrazzo flooring evokes old-school mithai shop vibes, while the candy cane-inspired ducts playfully blend yellow, navy blue, and ivory hues. The integration of soft timber accents and emerald green seating adds a touch of elegance to the colorful scheme. Architect and lighting designer Arjun Rathi's exquisite hand-blown glass lights adorn the space, with a chandelier resembling monochrome bull's-eye candies suspended from the ceiling, adding a captivating layer of interest.

Bombay Sweet Shop is not just a place to pick up mithai – it's an experience that celebrates the love for sweets and brings communities together. With a nod to the spirit of Bandra, this creative fusion of a mithai shop and a dessert bar has truly transformed the traditional concept of a sweet haven.

And for those who lean more towards savory than sweet, the newly introduced menu promises reimagined, whimsical creations that will tantalize your taste buds. The Chole Bhature Mezze is a perfect example, combining familiar flavors with a creative twist.

In the heart of Bandra, Bombay Sweet Shop stands as a testament to innovation, creativity, and the seamless blending of tradition and modernity. Step inside, indulge in the charm, and explore the world of mithai and culinary delights – it's an experience you won't want to leave behind.

Sip in Style: Yuki’s Tequila Cocktails Hit All the Right Notes

Sip in Style: Yuki’s Tequila Cocktails Hit All the Right Notes

Published on July 31, 2025

At Yuki, sipping tequila is no longer just about salt and lime, it’s about exploring bold flavours, subtle aromas, and creative twists inspired by Pan-Asian flair. This stylish spot isn’t just a feast for the palate with its cuisine, but now also delights with a cocktail menu that’s bursting with personality.

Whether you’re a tequila enthusiast or just cocktail-curious, Yuki’s mixologists have designed a lineup that balances classic notes with playful innovation. Here’s what’s pouring:

Pandan Teq-Tea

This one’s a game-changer. A gentle blend of tequila, pandan syrup, and a hint of lime creates a smooth, slightly sweet drink with a vanilla-like aroma. It’s soft, fragrant, and a total crowd-pleaser for those who like their cocktails a little off the beaten path.

Summer in Osaka

If summer had a signature drink, this would be it. Imagine tequila meeting creamy toasted coconut, refreshing coconut water, earthy matcha crème, and a dusting of beetroot. The result? A layered, tropical cocktail that feels like a warm breeze with every sip.

Tuk Tuk Tom

This one’s for the bold-hearted. Inspired by Southeast Asian street flavors, it brings the iconic zing of Tom Yum into your glass. Tequila mingles with chilli heat, parsley freshness, and a citrusy lift from lime, giving you a spicy, herby hit that lingers in the best way.

The Classic Margarita

Some things never go out of style. Yuki’s take on the Margarita keeps it clean and crisp, premium agave, a splash of orange liqueur, and fresh lime juice. It’s a simple reminder of why this cocktail became a global favourite in the first place.

Yuki Picante

Think tropical meets spicy. Pineapple juice, lime, and agave nectar form the base, while coriander and jalapeño bring a zesty punch. It's lively, bold, and designed to wake up your taste buds.

Yuki doesn’t just serve cocktails, it curates experiences in a glass. Whether you're out with friends or just winding down after a long day, their tequila range adds the perfect spark to your evening. So the next time you’re at Yuki, raise a glass to flavour, flair, and a sip-worthy adventure.
