Bandra’s Fatty Bao is adding fun to all your festive feasting with its Street Food Festival. The special menu at the gastrobar features street food across East Asia, including grills ad delicacies. Dishes on offer include thread-ball shaped Vegetarian Temari Sushi with seasonal veggies or the non-veg version with tuna, salmon, scallop, smoked salmon and crab sticks as well as the Kushikatsu Seafood Platter loaded with fish, prawns, squid and oysters. We also like the sound of the Ddukkbokki which is Korean rice cake with Sriracha and fried onion. For desserts, the options vary from comforting classics like Tokyo Banana sponge cake, Banana Custard and Caramelised Banana Ice Cream.
