November's iCOTM sees another dish by Mumbai hitting the top of the charts. The Mumbai group, which consists of 15 establishments spread far and wide across Tokyo, offers a fine array of Indian cuisine, and though we are gradually doing our best to visit all of them, the one shop that keeps drawing us back is the original Mumbai, situated right next to the Indian embassy in Kudan.
Mumbai's menu is full of delights, including all the regulars that we would usually order. Paneer dishes are not the first thing that spring out of the menu when we are on our curry adventures, but the Paneer Kadai Masala, ordered alongside the magnificent Black Pepper Chicken, and some sublime mixed biriyani, stood out as part of a an order shared as a communal feast.
The chunky and plentiful paneer was cooked to perfection in the masala rich sauce, and combined with onion, sliced ginger, large cuts of tomato, and with a dry chili propping up the middle, made it an exquisite dish. Mixed with the biriyani, every bite was a mouthful of pure joy, proving that even though it is not uncommon for people to stick to ordering familiar dishes, it can be very rewarding when branching out. You can be sure that whatever you pick from Kudan Mumbai's menu, you are pretty much guaranteed a veritable treat.
