The name 'Seeds of Life' sounds like something right out of a Disney movie or a children's bedtime story book, but after visiting them I understood the idea and the motive behind it. As one might be able to guess, this place is a healthy cafe, where they have successfully curated the menu to give their customers tasty, but more importantly nutritious dishes. Though healthy food is not my cup of tea, I was excited to take a dip in these new waters of nutritious and even vegan cuisine. The outlet is located quite far from Bandra station, but the plus point is that it's away from the hustle and bustle. It's a small, cute place with minimalistic decor. I also like their choice of colour- Teal or Turquoise, which offers a very subtle and natural calmness vibe. Blue-green chair cushions with leaf imprints on wooden brown furniture, along with cute a few potted plants around gives a very natural and healthy vibe to the place. We started off with 'AVO' GREAT DAY. It was a simple preparation of Guacamole topped with sauteed mushrooms on a base of whole wheat multigrain toast. The dish looked simple, yet appetizing. The bread was thin and toasted to perfection, providing a crunchy base to the toppings above. The 'ILLUSIONIST' Sandwich was next. It was a damn good sandwich. Served with a side of yummy salad consisting of crunchy greens and sweet pomegranate pearls and a small portion of chipotle mayo for people like me who like stuff extra saucy. Apart from the herbed soy chunks, it also had a filling quantity of sauteed veggies. The menu also mentioned the presence of Cheddar, but I could hardly taste it. To make it extra fun, I added the salad into the sandwich and dunked it in with a healthy (in terms of size, not so much in terms of calories!) portion of the mayo! Along with the high nutrition food we also sipped on some delicious beverages. CACAO FOR YOU was deliciously thick and rich, which despite being listed as 'smoothie bowl' was served in a glass. It was topped with granola and a pretty orange flower, but was missing 'fresh fruits'. Taste-wise it was simply lovely. The rich bitterness of cacao was apparent right from its pleasant aroma, with its consistent thickness one had to drink it with a spoon! LAVENDER HIBISCUS & ROSE was another interesting sounding drink which caught my attention. A cooler with the name of 3 flowers is something you really want to try out right! This drink too was every bit as flowery as its name. This reddish-pink coloured beverage had finely chopped apple and lavender petals floating on top. When you take a sip, first you are greeted with a lovely, fruity fragrance followed by its flowery essence and lastly the strong after-taste of lavender. This beverage was one of the most complex, yet enjoyable drinks I have ever tried, If you like fruity stuff, this should definitely be on your table! Well, we were almost full by this point but another interesting bit caught my attention and that's BAKED SWEET POTATO FRIES. More so because they proudly mentioned that they don't have a fryer in their kitchen, so I had to try this one too (though I am glad it's a side and not a main dish as I wouldn't have had any space for their desserts). To end the lovely meal we got ourselves the most appetizing looking dessert from their display: CHOCOLATE WALNUT BROWNIE. I thought it looked mouth-watering in their frigid display and couldn't get any better, but when it came to our table it got even more insta-worthy! The gooey chocolate ganache on top melted and formed these intricate wave-like patterns, now tantalizing our olfactory receptors as well. It tasted so good that we didn't say a word while we enjoyed it. The ganache was so thick that it first stuck to the spoon and then the roof of your mouth, literally spreading its chocolaty goodness all over the place. The brownie below was also well made and baked, with the occasional crunch of walnuts. Another must try dish from the kitchen of 'Seeds of...
