Navi Mumbaikars often feel that this part of the city misses out on cool and happening cafes compared to the other part of Mumbai. Well, Cafe 70 beans is definitely an addition to your good books of cafes where you can actually relax and spend quality time with friends and family. The cafe has already made its name in the most visited cafe list in Navi Mumbai by Zomato. Wondering why its named 70 beans not 60 or 80? Because its believed that 70 roasted coffee beans, is what it takes to brew one prefect cup of coffee. 70 beans and perfection are synonyms of each other in terms of coffee.
Salads preparation are something which has “no fix rules” defined. Innovation and experimenting with the ingredients can create differently, yet amazing salads recipes. Salad being an important part of the meal has gathered attentions these days as people becoming more health conscious ( including me, of course,:P). Routine food and salad can be boring, so you can always make changes and create delicious salads which you and your family can relish. The ‘hung curd’ is one of the best things I came across recently and I am totally in love with it. Hung curd is a great substitute for Mayo or any other creamy dressing. This hung curd chicken salad is a complete meal in itself. Loaded with protein, good fibers, and very less fat. There are no fixed ingredients for this salad, check your refrigerator and toss as many veggies as you want. The creamy texture of salad what we have in restaurants use Mayo which is definitely not healthy especially for weight watchers. So, this hung curd comes to rescue which allows you to have the desired creamy texture, the veggies give a crunch to it at the same time its healthy.
What tastes better than fresh strawberries? I love strawberries and make sure I have enough of them in the season. Strawberry Banana Flax Seeds Yogurt Smoothie is my one such favorite drink that I relish always. This is a complete meal in itself, you can enjoy it for breakfast/ dessert or any time of the day. It is rich in calcium, fibers, and vitamins. The yogurt gives a smooth texture to the drink and I guess that where the name “smoothie” comes from.
Adding chia seeds or flax seeds to the strawberry banana smoothie makes it more nutritious and it is even recommended for people struggling to shred few extra pounds. Flax seeds are high fiber super food which is rich in Omega-3 essential fatty acid and possess numerous health benefits. You can buy it online from Amazon: Flax Seeds
You can use Greek yogurt or thick curd or even avoid curd and make the smoothie in milk. If fresh strawberries or banana is not available you can use the frozen fruits which give thickness to the smoothie.

I always store some frozen banana in the refrigerator for making a smoothie. Banana act as a natural sweetener and you can avoid adding sugar completely. Do give it a try and don’t forget me to follow on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook 🙂

I like exploring new food joints but don’t like to travel far for food. Being in Navi Mumbai, I prefer exploring places near me or in Navi Mumbai only. After all, new joints are opening every day here too. The review of Hyderabad Xpress is one such case where the food traveled to me. Don’t believe me! But this is true, it happened when one fine day I received a mail from Mr. Aamer introducing me to Hyderabad Xpress and expressed his interest in sending some Biryani for tasting and feedback. I thought this is one such place where things…
Weekends are mostly eat out day and a happy day for me as it mostly becomes a ” no cooking day”. I love exploring new restaurants in or near my area. This time, I was in search of some authentic Mughlai cuisines. So, my search began on Zomato, after checking out few outlets the name”Biryani Guru” caught my attention. After reading the reviews and checking out the menu, we decided to visit the place and give them a try. As they name was very catchy so my expectation from the place was already heightened. Well… “Biryani Guru” justifies the name…
