Tony da Dhaba, Lonavala

TONY DA DHABA, LONAVALA

O' Shastriyakaal ji!

'A meaty menu it was! On their suggestion we had the non veg platter, which had some delicious ones. The Dal was as always a must eat from the dhaba! The glass of chaas was a true Dhaba feel.  The meal was complete with mouth watering 'Jalebi Rabri' 

'

             Phew I loved it!

      We went for the second time to this lovely dhaba. Little did I remember about this place from my first visit. It's a little ahead of Sunny da dhaba....these are the two most often visited dhabas of Lonavala. As I entered, I saw this small well spread area comprising of the poultry of emu, hen, cock, duck, followed by the regular charpoy, table chair sitting layout. Next we saw another option of outdoor sitting with bonfire put up! That is what one dreams of on a chilly night time dinner, is'nt it? The view was completed with a small playgarden with bullock cart, swings,  animal stands on display. This not only attracted the kids but also us for a fun picnic photoshoot!

This hangout is in the nest of Colaba Causeway. The "Meating joint" as they call it! Bandra caters another one. 

For Christmas time, my palate wished to try Turkey. If you haven't tried hunter's meat or any other rare meat, this is surely one of the good options to start off from. I set out at this joint on suggestion of my little bro. Being an IHM student, he seems to be  memorising  and creating a 'dictionary' or should  I say 'eaterictionary' of Mumbai restaurants. 
I questioned him whether it was going to be an unkept stall like place, or was it a very expensive restaurant category. It was casual dining room, with Xmas tree and light decor at the entrance. it felt as if we entered a den!

The menu is insane! It has Quail, Rabbit, turkey, Ox tail, Ham, Duck. A menu to go on with Beer as well. A separate Christmas menu was also there. Quail is not as meaty, but the sauce was very good indeed. Turkey Schnitzel as a crunchy starter was no new like taste. The duck legs were succulent which was to the contrary of what I imagined. Sandwiches are good. The ham and cheese sandwich was  upto the mark!
