And since it has been incessantly raining here, we definitely need some extra dose of special tea to enjoy the weather. So, I along with a friend paid a visit to the Taj Mahal Tea House to try out their Monsoon Menu.

Read moreWe walked over to the Taj Mahal Tea House (TMTH for short.. rather than BBTMTH - which is quite a mouthful if you ask me 😄) from Mount Mary Church following a leisurely stroll along Band Stand.
Since the latter of the two walks had been somewhat brisk, we were in definite need for some refreshment and the delightful experience that greeted us was truly welcome. It wasn't quite a surprise for our friend had recommended the joint with much gusto!
We chose to start with (and eventually ended with it too - for what was meant to be a small meal, it definitely was not) an assortment of sweet & savoury tidbits - the Non-veg High Tea Platter - with cups of chai - mine a Kashmiri Saffron and hers a Parsi Mint. Barring one or two of the assortment, all the items were delectable - even the ones that didn't quite fit the bill quite right were still quite palatable, perhaps we were suffering from the theory of diminishing returns from over consumption 😄 or so it seemed at the time.
The place is truly one of its kind with a variety of seating options (we, it would turn out later, had managed to occupy the most coveted armchairs in the establishment) and tea rooms in many a pleasant setting without straying too far from the theme of a quiet and elegant heritage.
On the whole, we enjoyed a wonderful autumnal evening and found TMTH a sanctuary from the bustle of what is 'maximum city'. lt thoroughly...
