I wouldn't normally think of a beach as a place to visit in the evening but Girgaum Chowpatty is famous for it's local street food. There are around 50 vendors in a section near the entrance to the beach selling all kinds of desi delicacies.
The beach itself I found to be very crowded, even after dark. It seems to be a very popular hangout spot for the locals but personally I don't see the appeal of hanging out somewhere so busy and with no privacy.
Foods that I tried were a Royal Falooda, which contained saffron, basil seeds, jelly and something called Kulfi, which I had no idea what it was but determined to be similar to dairy fudge.
After starting off with dessert I then went in search of a savoury Indian main meal. I asked around for recommendations and that lead me to Dosa with masala potatoes. I'd tried Dosa before in Jaffna, Sri Lanka but this one was much better as it was cooked fresh. The one I had in Sri Lanka was cooked hours before I ate it and was stale around the ends.
Finally I tried a fresh dosa and it was delicious!
I ended the food spree with a few sugary drinks while walking back to my hotel. It's impossible to get a taxi during rush hours in Mumbai. The city is one massive traffic jam.
