After winning hearts and praises in Kala Ghoda and Bandra West, Sequel now opens its doors in another prime location - BKC. Started by chef Vanika Choudhary in 2016, these guys were the first to introduce an all-gluten free concept in Mumbai. Naturally, Sequel gained quick popularity among health freaks and our vegan folks. (Our founder, Suchita Salwan, makes it a point to visit Sequel every time she's in Mumbai)! And now, with its third outlet opening in one of the city's hotspots, we're kinda already making brunch plans for the coming weekend.
While the other two outlets killed it with their vibrant and green space ambience, the BKC one is embracing an earthy and zen theme. Which, I think, all of us could use right now. Beige and white hues, soothing lights, minimal finishes and soft edges, we're quite impressed with this super chic and Wabi-Sabi theme.
The BKC Sequel joint envelopes three distinct zones - a grab-and-go section, cafe space and the formal dining room. The all-new menu continues to represent Sequel's core philosophy of organic and clean eating, with emphasis on a series of small plates and new healthy main dishes. Apart from their signature dishes, you can enjoy their new ones like smoked lotus root fritters with Greek yogurt, edamame and chickpea falafels with coriander sauce, smoked aubergine and pickled beetroot, tacos, red radish and Kashmiri walnuts and lots more. I'm kinda already drooling. As always, their menu is high on taste and health. Their main course menu also includes lip-smacking delicacies like jacket sweet potato, applewood-smoked black rice, red snapper burger and tempeh burger. End it on a sweet note with their range of drool-worthy desserts. Spoiler alert: sweetness overload! You can go for their signature dessert - the dark chocolate cake with cacao ganache, poached pears and vanilla ice-cream.
Lastly, coffee lovers, there's some good news coming your way! A first-of-its-kind espresso machine (called Black Eagle Victoria Arduino Gravitec) has parked itself in this restaurant. Fun fact: this machine was used at the World Barista Championship as well. So, expect every cup of your coffee to be brewed with the highest level of sophistication and taste. Fancy coffee date to impress your S.O.? This is your place, folks!
So, we'd say, without much delay, make your way to this newest opening in town and beat the 2020 blues in this zen space.
