Navroze Mubarak (Happy New Year)
to all the Parsis here in the UAE, it's amazing how you get to celebrate &
wish each other 'Happy New Year' twice in one year, however your parsi-mate,
Farah Khan decided to kind of over-do it in the last year (If you know what I
mean)
Being in Mumbai, there is
absolutely no way you could have missed out on the Parsi colonies in Dadar or
the ones at Andheri Station & the small Parsi cafes in its vicinity.
But now apparently you can find one of those cafes just a drive away, at
Jumeirah Lake Towers to be precise. Also, it's all funked up now.
Cafe Funkie Town is one of the
only Parsi cafes in Dubai serving a wide range of food. Be that your chilly
cheese toast or a frankie, keema-pav or dhansak, chicken cutlet or sali-boti,
Cafe Funkie Town is the place.
Unlike my usual reviews I'm not
going to get into detail of what all I had, what was good & what wasn't,
because the beauty of Cafe Funkie Town is experimenting with food. Also you
will absolutely love their service, there is this one young lady who sits there
(I'm guessing she owns the place) she will be your perfect guide to Parsi food
& help you decide on your order.
Also apart from the food, what I
personally love about this cafe is their Bollywood vibe, be that the bollywood
star photoframes displayed on the walls or the random bollywood songs playing
in the background.
Also this sign board at their
counter is the perfect slap-in-the-face for people including myself who
invariably always ask the servers at the restaurants 'What's the WiFi password?
*wink*

Cafe Funkie Town is quite
pocket-friendly, don't be too desi and start converting it and comparing it
with how much would you pay for it had you been in Mumbai because that will get
you nowhere.
I would rate Cafe Funkie Town a
4/5
P.S. Here is their Navroz Special
