08 Dec, 2018 by Mini Ribeiro
Robust and hearty, a few Carnivores can resist pork dishes over other meaty fares, when given an option. Whether a Crispy Pork Belly or a Sausage Roll or even Pork Spare Ribs, the variety in pork dishes in Mumbai is tremendous. Across cuisines, one can have one’s pick from an array of pork dishes, each of which greets you with different flavours and textures. My top 5 recommendations:
Pork Vindaloo at Lady Baga, Lower Parel
This distinctly home-style dish with pork marinated in the typical chillies and vinegar masala is a Goan treat one must not miss. Pair it with Pao or Pulao, and you have a winning combination.
