Two
weeks
ago,
I
visited
Indian
Accent
Mumbai
to
celebrate
my
2nd
Wedding
Anniversary,
and
I
wish
to
share
my
experience.
Situated
at
Jio
World
Centre,
the
venue
is
both
beautiful
and
luxurious.
However,
for
a
restaurant
charging
5500
INR
per
person
for
a
meal,
basic
valet
parking
should
be
covered.
I
had
to
pay
an
additional
240
INR
for
valet
parking.
Moving
on,
the
restaurant
exudes
class
with
high
ceilings,
and
we
were
warmly
welcomed
by
a
lady
and
escorted
to
our
seats.
The
ambiance
was
comfortable,
the
cutlery
luxurious,
and
the
table
setup
intimate.
We
were
presented
with
the
chef's
tasting
menu,
and
each
dish
arrived
one
by
one,
both
of
us
opting
for
the
Non-Vegetarian
option.
Indian
Accent
Shorba
+
Blue
Cheese
Naan
-
6/10:
The
Shorba
was
decent,
and
the
Blue
Cheese
Naan
was
exquisite.
We
progressed
to
the
Chats,
including
Sindhi
Dal
Pakwan,
Churan
ka
Karela,
and
Dahi
Bhalla,
all
rated
6/10.
While
my
wife
found
the
chats
to
be
okay,
I
personally
appreciated
the
presentation,
especially
the
miniature
designs,
and
enjoyed
the
Dal
Pakwan.
The
starters
featured
Murgh
Malai,
Gobindobhog
&
Mushroom
Payesh
with
Fresh
Truffles
(8/10),
Kanyakumari
Crab,
XO
Balchao,
Pao
(9/10),
and
Pulled
Lamb
Dumpling
with
'Aab
Gosht,'
Rice
Puffs
(7/10).
The
Meetha
Achar
Pork
Ribs
(7/10),
a
complimentary
dish
from
the
chef,
presented
a
nice
flavor
reminiscent
of
sticky
Korean
ribs.
A
palate
cleanser,
Strawberry
Kala
Khatta
Kulfi
Sorbet,
was
high
on
presentation
with
the
essence
of
Kala
Khatta
gola.
For
the
mains,
my
wife
ordered
Baked
Sea
Bass,
Barberry
Pulao,
Patrani
Butter
(4/10),
which
was
deemed
quite
average,
while
the
barberry
pulao
added
some
glory.
I
opted
for
Chicken
Tikka
Meatball,
Flame
Roast
Tomato
Makhni
(7/10),
where
the
standout
was
the
smoked
makhani
gravy.
Accompanying
the
mains
were
Indian
Accent
Kulcha,
Black
Dairy
Dal
Smoked
Eggplant
Raita,
with
Butter
Chicken
Kulcha
and
Hoisin
Duck
Kulcha.
The
latter
stood
out,
and
the
black
dal
was
smooth,
complementing
the
mains
well.
Moving
on
to
desserts,
with
an
overall
rating
of
8/10:
Masala
Peanut
Soft
Serve
(8/10)
was
a
personal
favorite.
Daulat
Ki
Chaat,
Rose
Petal
Chikki,
Roast
Almond
(8/10)
was
delightful
and
light.
Khubani
Ka
Meetha,
Peach,
Malai
Papad
(6/10)
was
somewhat
heavy,
but
my
wife
enjoyed
it.
A
surprise
warm
Doda
Burfi
Treacle
Tart,
Vanilla
Bean
Ice-cream
(8/10)
with
"Happy
Anniversary"
written
on
top
was
a
delightful
variation.
Despite
initial
concerns
about
portion
sizes,
we
found
ourselves
pleasantly
full
at
the
end
of
the
three-hour
gastronomical
journey.
In
conclusion,
while
Indian
Accent
is
an
excellent
choice
for
celebrating
significant
moments
or
seeking
a
unique
experience,
the
high
cost
of
the
dishes
may
deter
regular
visits.
Personally,
I
would
lean
towards
Bombay
Canteen
for
a
regular
meal.
However,
if
you
seek
a
once-in-a-lifetime
experience,
Indian
Accent
is
worth
considering.
The
total
bill
amounted
to
around
11.5k
INR,
inclusive
of
all
taxes.
