Have you ever flipped through a lifestyle magazine, pausing at pages splashed with some beautiful photographs of a stunning restaurant, aching to go there? Well, you can! We have for you a spectacular place that will simply take your breath away with its ambience and impact. For Mumbaikars craving for mood dining, ‘Dome’ could be heaven sent. This lovely fine dining lounge is renowned all over the city for combining good food and even better ambience. The lounge is set on the rooftop of posh Intercontinental Hotel at Churchgate and from its magnificent perch looks upon a fantastic view of the Queen’s necklace and Arabian Sea. It’s a good place to sample some of Mumbai’s glitzy nightlife. You can witness fashionable crowd here and as the sun sets the lounge becomes hotbed of activity and glamour.
Dome starts service in the evening, don’t bother going during the day. But if you want to catch a breath-taking sunset, do go early. Pump up your evening with a round of shots or lip-smacking cocktails, just to kick-start your night. Buzz further on a variety of drinks from Dome’s extensive bar menu. While you sip on a glass of champagne, munch on an assortment of appetizers from Dome’s eclectic menu. Dig into, rajma galauti, Spanish meat balls, inari maki, trio of baked phyllo cigars, salmon sashimi, kataifi wrapped tiger prawns, chicken malai kebab, lemon garlic mushrooms, ebi tempura roll and steamed edamame. If you still have some appetite left how about going through few fulfilling bites like, wild mushroom & goat cheese hand crafted crepes, satay ayam square pizza, smoked chicken crepes, pepperoni & boconccini pizza and smoked salmon & Philadelphia cream cheese crepe.
For that sugar rush Dome offers, Nutella & chocolate crepes, Dome tiramisu, coconut cheesecake and brownie board. Enjoy a gorgeous view of the sea with live music and if you could pull your eyes away, admire the surroundings. Drink alfresco and lounge about in elegant low white seating spread across the rooftop. The addition of white sofas infuses the scene with glamour. In the evening each table is lit with candles, setting a perfect atmosphere for romance. If you want the water up close, lounge next to the pool which glows in the night. Dome offers a charming, romantic and beautiful ambience, however expensive.
