Fabulous Foods: Fat Man's Cafe

Fat Man's Cafe!

 

As the name suggests, Fat Man's Cafe has a menu that'll definitely neutralize a month of your workout at the least.
Fat Man's Cafe has two outlets in Bombay at the moment: One at Bandra Reclamation in the same lane as Chez Moi and Candies and the other in Juhu, in the same building as Grain & Bagel and Quench.

Having been to both the outlets, I must say that they follow a very high level of consistency in not only their ambience but also their service and food quality. The restaurant offers a wide variety of Board Games for those who want to play along with a chilled out vibe and decent music.

The place offers more than just meal foods, it also offers beverages such as coffee and milkshakes and also breakfast. I happened to visit the outlets either for Lunch or Dinner though.

Mozarella & Cheddar Dough Balls

Speaking of the food, let's start with appetizers. Their Jalpaneo Poppers were pretty good too. However, the appetizer that stole the show were their Mozarella & Cheddar stuffed dough balls with Herb Butter dip. I absolutely loved this appetizer, a little more than the pizza to be honest.

Their Mac n Cheese Pizza is every hogger's dream. A beautifully put together dish combining the famous Mac n Cheese with the most loved Pizzas, is tough to do. The pizza didn't taste as great as I expected it would, but it was definitely not a bad decision. I was super excited when I ordered it the first time around. But when I went to the Juhu branch, I found the taste a little off and so I told the waiter serving our the table the same. His name was Zimik, and he was extremely helpful. Our pizza was immediately replaced with apologies for the delay.

We also ordered the Grilled Pumpkin and Ricotta Ravioli in butter sage sauce. It was quite a pleasant surprise for me as I usually don't like Pumpkin. Adding seasoning to the dish only made it better and strengthened the flavoring of the dish.

For dessert we ordered the Nutella Mousse Cake. An off-the-menu dessert, this is something worth dying for. A beautiful dish with a crunchy layer made using cornflakes topped with chocolate mousse cake. Each bite was like tasting heaven. This dish definitely deserves a 5/5 rating.

The Nutella Coffee Shake is incredible as well.

However, the service, although very helpful and polite, is a little slow. We had to wait for quite some time before our food reached the table and restaurant wasn't very crowded that night either.
Additionally, Fat Man's Cafe is slightly on the more expensive side for food and drinks when compared to the quality and quantity of the food served.




Personally, I think Fat Man's is a place everyone must visit at least once with their friends!
