My second visit to Sahara Star and everytime I go there, the hospitality and the experience just gets better. My previous visit was at Mabruk and this time around at Manuhaar. Relatively new at Sahara Star, this restaurant provides a perfect melange of the Gujarat and Marwad delicacies served in a single thali. Have had thalis at a lot of places but I would personally rate Manuhaar as one of the best I have tried till date.
Located at Level 00, Manuhaar is located right besides EAST. Warm welcome as soon as I entered Sahara Star where I was escorted to the restaurant. The ambience of the restaurant is lovely, black chequered flooring. One of the glass shelves displaying puppets from Rajasthan. Carefully chosen show pieces placed on one side of the walls and some beautiful paintings on the other side.
Coming straight to the Thali menu they had for the day -
Welcome Drink - Chaas, served in a Kulhad. Next served on the table was a Salad and Papad platter.
Sweets were served on table - Kalakand, Shrikhand and Dahi Wada. Kalakand and Shrikhand was to die for, stunning.
Next as Farsan - We were served Mutter Ghugra, White Dhokla and Khandvi. Personal favorites for me - both dhokla and Khandvi.
Moving to the Rajasthani signature dish - Dal Baati Churma, Baati dipped in ghee, poured some Daal on top and Churma given on the side in the main dish.
Now turn of the mains, 5 vegetables. Care was taken to include all different types so as to cater to everyone's tastes and preferences - Paneer Shimla Mirchi, Panchkuti (5 Mix Vegetable), Corn Palak, Gatte ki Subzi and Aloo Jeera. I loved vegetables but my personal favorites were Gatte ki Subzi, Paneer Shimla Mirchi and Aloo Jeera. Simply outstanding.
The rotis included Phulka Roti (fluffy soft ones), Missi Roti and Puri, so again choose as you may like. We were also served the Yellow Dal Tadka and Gujarati Kadhi. I personally am a big fan of the sweet Kadhi, we make it at home as well. It's quite different from the regular yellow kadhi which non Gujarati people are used to having. Would recommend all to come down to this place and try the Kadhi.
Finally as rice options, they have steamed rice and masala khichdi. To end the meal on a sweet note, you are also served Moong Dal Dry Fruit Halwa loaded with ghee.
The thalis here as well as the glasses have golden finishing touch and it gives a very royal feel when you are seated at the table and about to begin your meal. Thalis are priced at 1750+ per person. The staff is extremely courteous and professional. A special mention for chef Parmeshwar from Rajasthan who had prepared a delightful meal for us. Fantastic meal, fabulous hospitality and wonderful experience to sum my visit to Manuhaar. Fingers crossed and hoping to come back soon to Sahara Star!
The other day we were in the mood to have thali and visited Manuhaar in the popular Sahara Star Hotel in Mumbai. And we were in for a treat ! What a royal thali and experience!!
