Located on the top floor of a shopping center in Bandra, Sheesha is a rooftop restaurant that offers Hooka and Indian cuisine, all of it with a slight Moroccan feel that reminded me of previous trips to Casablanca, Fez, and Algiers. Gravel walkaways lead to tables set under canopies offering an excellent break from the hustle and bustle of the street. (Bandra comes alive in the evenings, especially around the holidays. It's full of "hot spots" where Bollywood celebrities can be seen and one quickly gets the feeling that it's "the place to be". Evenings in Bandra are nothing but busy and full of live, often with processions or large groups of people on the street.)
The paneer at Sheesha is absolutely delicious. Rotis and naans leave you wanting more and the atmosphere makes you feel like you are the only one in the restaurant. You can smell the fruity aroma of the hooka pipes from other tables. It was definitely the perfect way to end my shopping day!
**(I must apologize to Amit for making him "suffer" through numerous paneer dinners during my stay... Despite him not beeing very keen on paneer he ordered it over and over again at my request!)
