The city’s most sought-after seafood restaurant, Mahesh Lunch Home, returns with its longstanding annual tradition of pairing delicious crabs and pours of wine! The 24th edition of its Crab and Wine Festival at their Juhu and Vashi branches revives classic dishes along with new additions to its gourmet menu.
How long will the Crab and Wine Festival last?
Started on September 19, this delectable festival has served gorgeous renditions of classic crab dishes and will continue to offer the same until October 19. Their Juhu outlet has gone all out with fresh-caught crabs and fish exhibited right in front of the restaurant, offering you a glimpse of the menu inside.
A look into their special menu
With some spectacular reviews pouring in since its inception, the festival earns further brownie points as the restaurant offers complimentary bottles of wine or beer with the purchase of one crab dish. Nashik’s Sula Vineyards, along with Corona and Hoegaarden, hold dibs on their drinks menu as the dishes enhance tenfold with each sip.
The specials start with its classic favourites like Butter Pepper Garlic Crab, Mustard Pepper Crab and Roast Crab. Their buttery richness is complemented well by a spicy kick that has placed the above among the restaurant’s signature dishes. In addition, the festival comes bearing seventeen new crab dishes, all cooked to perfection, giving way to melt-in-the-mouth spoonfuls drenched with a velvety amalgamation of spices.
The Kerala-style Crab Molee, Thai-inspired Ketam Lemon Chilli Crab, the Goan Crab Xec Xec, and the hot Andhra Chilli Crab top the menu, pairing beautifully with glasses of red wine or a cool pint of lemon-drop Corona. Read along the menu to find Patrani Crab steamed inside a banana leaf, Sahi Sofiyani with cashew and almond infusions, the succulent Pesto Basil Crab and the Malaysian Egg Crab graced with Gochujang. An enriching trip from the coasts of Goa to Kerala and beyond, each dish holds a plethora of flavours done exceedingly well, as standard to Mahesh Lunch Home.
