Hotel Vasundhara – A honest Review

Vasundhara, Vashistarted some years back opposite Vashi Railway station at BSEL Tech Park. They start at 11 am and work till 11.30 pm. They serve breakfast, Lunch and dinner and also do some Home deliveries. Cuisines include North Indian, South Indian and Fast Foods. They serve only Veg Food. There is no parking available, though they claim of Valet Parking.

Decor

Since they are located on the ground floor and slightly around the corner, the Restaurant is hidden out of normal view for a first timer. There is no dearth of the crowd coming in as it is a well known restaurant and is pretty crowded during business hours. The dcor is pleasant for a Veg restaurant and the seating is spacious. Cleanliness is prompt and I liked the promptness of the staff.

Food

Since I had heard a lot about the Paneer preparations and Pav Bhaji, I asked for a Paneer Pakoda and Pav Bhaji. The Pav bhaji was good and the quantity is decent. It acts as a crowd puller. The Paneer Pakoda was plated well, but to be honest, I did not find it anything outside the word ordinary.

The South Indian dishes are good and the Chef has mastered the art of making south Indian dishes well with the appropriate amount of coriander and Curry leaves added to make it flavorful. The North Indian food is not so much to die for. Okay types. Chinese is just about ordinary, nothing great.

Plus and Minus

For the Plus Side, I must say that they know how to manage the crowd well and swift in service. A delay of 10 minutes is expected when you are talking about a crowded place. The food quality was good and I did not find stale chutney /Sambhar as is the case in many Udipi restaurants especially in Summer season. The South Indian food and Pav Bhaji is a must try for anyone visiting this place. On the Minus side, I found the staff a bit rude due to the pressure they have for handling such crowds during business hours. I was allowed to sit till I kept ordering (rather the waiter kept asking me if he should make the bill so that I could get up and make way for someone else) They should be slightly polite in putting this across. After all, you are in the service Industry. 🙂 Yes, here again I did not identify myself as a Food blogger as I did not want them to give me their customised Blogger Menu for ‘only good reviews’. So until the next review, Eat well, eat healthy..
