Mondegar- One of the original waterholes at Colaba.


Mondegar, originally uploaded by JimReeves.

Mondegar is one of the original waterholes of Bombay..
Have the Large Pitcher, Beef Steak, Chicken Chilly and put a 5 buck coin in the Old Jukebox.
The owner once told me how he was hounded by the authorities for his Smuggled juke Box (only 2-3 in Bombay), yet manage to evade them.

The murals are by the famous cartoonist Mario Miranda who drew our Balbharti text books in school.

Also watch out for a fartface waiter who sucks up to Firangs and gives Indians a raw deal when asked to get fags.

  1. Yeah, as a frequent (somewhat) visitor to Mumbai, I always used to visit Mondes before leaving. Was disappointed the last time though, the music was terrible (some hip-hop rubbish) and the 3 rock songs I paid for were cut short. Waiter also tried to show attitude. Think it was that useless waiter u mentioned. Don't think I'll go there again.
