Reasonable price me agar acchi cheese khani hai to Merwan ke alawa khai bhi nahi milegi. No compromise in quality. Very good.

Bun maska Mawa cake omlette pav is my favourite in b merwan

[@explorewithalka]

I too love their Mawa cakes

[@anilkumarpatel5854]

In the era of 60/70 Catching my daily train for office from Lower Parel I used to get down at Grant Road only for morning breakfast at Merwan Hotel. It is just opposite the Grant Road Station. I have enjoyed most of items of Merwan backer. I have travelled and visited the many cities but could not find any match of Merwan Backer. I feel lucky that I could consumed backery items of Merwan Backer.

[@shaileshudyawar4963]

Mam I was attached to this cafe since childhood since my school was next to this iconic joint. In 1968 the cost of mava cake was 25 paise per piece. Really amazing to enjoy. There was another joint in grant road that was cafe oriental where the mava cake was made in glass shape. Really both the iconic joints were famous for their mava cakes. Recently about a month back I happened to visit this joint and the taste has not differed hats off to this iconic joint.

[@explorewithalka]

So this video has turned out to be nostalgic for you 😍

Very nice maam! This has refreshed my old memories. Now I am retired but when I used to work at Nanachowk power supply department for 14 years, I often used to have a breakfast of bun maska & tea in the morning, while going to the office and used to take home the iconic mawa cake for my children.

[@explorewithalka]

Glad to give you nostalgia through my video. Thank you

[@kolhatkarchinmay]

Iconic restaurant...When I used to go to Lamington road for buying electronics Spares it used to be my first destination. Omlette with bun muska was my favourite...pudding was also tasty.....love those days when Mumbai used to run at different speed... somewhere after COVID Bombay has lost that speed...hope everything gets to normal as soon as possible

[@explorewithalka]

Hope the same...And I too have a fixed stop at B Merwan & Co. whenever I go to Lamington Road 😊

[@vmmadge]

Alka ji, B. Merwan reminds me of Marz O Rin and Diamond Queen on the M. G. Road in Poona Camp. Someone rightly replied that the best thing of such iconic places inter alia is the flavour of the place. When you come to Poona.....

[@explorewithalka]

Sure...🤗

[@sukeshkohli475]

I never had mawa samosa, must be fantastic as being told by every customer. I wish this kind of delicacy was available in States, I will try to find Iranian Cafe in Northern Virginia to try out. As always great video, you truly rock Alka. Keep up /w great content.

Thank you for your kind words

[@vmmadge]

You've tasted bun muska in Good Luck in Poona. How do they compare?

[@explorewithalka]

Bun Maska tastes better in Goodluck but the price there is double. But honestly, you can't compare the Mawa cakes here with any other bakery...so are the Mawa puffs and jam puffs even if you pay a higher price anywhere else, you can't get such taste and quality

[@vmmadge]

@@explorewithalka Yeah, that's true. Certain places have their certain USPs!!! Indeed, the mawa cakes and jam puffs as I told you seem quite unbeatable!

I know Merwans is one of the best. And I totally agree that they have a unique taste of their mawa cakes etc. Reasonable too. Never get disappointed with their quality. But Madam you must check out The Vienna Bakery in Vakola Santacruz East. It is one of the oldest in Mumbai. Well known. People come from far and wide for the Rich Plum Cake and puffs.

Interesting video. I used to visit Parsi and Irani Cafes during my younger days at Colaba etc.around 40+ years back. Badshah Falooda near Fort Market, Paradise restaurant, Leopold Cafe, Colaba to name a few. @4:16 you accepted the offer of the kind owner to see the Oven, which in my opinion is the most important part of the success and popularity of this eatery. I was very curious to view it too as I am a serious foodie myself. You spent all of your time tasting and explaining the items standing outside the bakery 😁

[@explorewithalka]

I actually went inside the bakery and saw all details of how they bake, cook eggs in the kitchen, storage of ingredients, special family room for eating which is temporarily closed now, interiors etc. and I really hope they start dining again which is expected within a month's time. Thank you

We used to conduct women security program across the colleges in MAHARASHTRA, and when ever the program used to get conducted at SOPHIA COLLEGE, I used to travel a hour early, as then I used to reside at KALYAN then and traveling to GRANT ROAD was time consuming but love for MERVAN made me do it happily. But now as they don't offer us seating so I don't visit it, but now I think they're offering seating. I will make a point to visit them when I would visit GRANT ROAD. Slit the broon from the center, melt butter and put pour it in😋 ❤.
