Farmer’s Cafe, Mumbai
Healthy weekday lunches can be dull, with blah greens and bland sandwiches. But a new spot in Pali Hill Bandra,
Mumbai injects life into wholesome offerings. Farmer’s Cafe, Mumbai takes pride in incorporating superfoods in
its menu, all without mention of the word ‘salad’.
Fuel up with the Body Booster, a combination of coconut milk, coriander and ginger or sink your teeth into
the All Day Breakfast section which offers everything from eggs benedict and akuri eggs to a vegan tofu akuri,
breakfast tartines with nutritious toppings and a savoury farmer’s pancake served with vegan cilantro mayonnaise.
For something more substantial, pizzas here are guilt-free, made with a whole-wheat base, organic cheese
and sport whimsical names. The High School Pizza is topped with a trio of skim cheeses, sundried tomatoes and
jalapenos for a spicy kick; Just Kale It comes with roasted sweet potatoes and, of course, the leafy green; while the Thai
Farmer combines herbed tofu, bell peppers, broccoli, carrots and peanut sauce. Meat eaters can opt for the English
Breakfast Pizza with eggs, or the Vitamin Sea with smoked salmon, roasted bell peppers and caramelised onions.
Vegans with a sweet tooth are in for a treat as desserts here are gluten-free and made using organic jaggery:
the skinny chocolate cake, chocolate almond pudding and farmer’s rice pudding are favourites.
