I am
sure most of us love the sound of brunch. The idea of sitting back at a
Mediterranean-isqe set up, with a glass of sangria, some delectable food and
sharing some good old banter with friends while some music playing softly in
the background keeps the tempo up. Sounds awesome, right?!
Well
luckily for us, Bombay has quite a few great Sunday brunches to choose from.
Here are my top 5 picks.
1. Novotel (Juhu)
A buffet spread boasting of Indian, Italian and Chinese cuisine can be found at the Sunday brunch at Novotel. The fact that the buffet is spread over all three restaurants at The Novotel (Olio, The Square and Sampan) makes this brunch a must. With the majestic view of the Arabian sea, the brunch here is an absolute delight. Be ready for the never ending signature cocktails and some taste bud scintillating food at The Square. What’s even better is that all those who brunch there are given a 20% discount on the spa services as well and can even take a dip in the pool. Now that’s a double win!
Cost per head: 2299 + taxes (approx.), inclusive of alcohol
Hours of operation: 12.30 pm to 4.00 pm
Address: Novotel, Juhu Beach, Balraj Sahani Marg, Juhu, Mumbai
Who
hasn’t heard of the brunch at Olive Bar & Kitchen now. Olive Bar &
Kitchen has Bollywood glitterati to thank for making it one of the ‘IT’ places
in Bombay. But even if we take away the b’town glam quotient from Olive, it
still has so much to offer, especially when it comes to the Sunday brunch. A Mediterranean
set up with a mouthwatering spread of salads, pastas, pizzas and eggs await you with a full accompaniment of
an extensive list of alcohol which includes wines, beers, cocktails and
Sangria, the perfect way to spend a lazy Sunday! For all those who don’t think
of Bombay beyond the sea-link, the Olive at Mahalaxmi racecourse also offers
the same Sunday brunch.

Little Door (Andheri W)

Little Door was a game changer for Andheri, finally the Andheri folks had their
very own venue for a kickass Sunday Brunch, oh and it has Karaoke too! Did this
just become the best brunch in town? Head to TLD to enjoy a scrumptious spread

breakfast items and desserts.

Frog’s Sunday brunch is all about fun, food and some great music , all lazily
spread over five hours. Well those five hours can be put to some really good
use, as the spread boasts of over 50 dishes and an array of cocktails to try. Suddenly
