Review: Masalchi Ustad
Agla station Bandra, next station baaaandra gets a new takeaway joint. Masalchi Ustaad claims to be an 'indian QSR'. Now thats an oxymoron! The complication involved in preparation with its myriad of ingredients and long drawn cooking process' makes it very hard for any Indian dish to be quick! And not to forget it would always be incomplete without being paired with with the accompaniments like chutney pickle etc.
Nevertheless, Masalchi Ustad boasts of some indian fusion dishes - Naan Turnover, Basa Fish with Orange Malta sauce, basil chicken tikka as well as the regular mogul fair - Nalli Nihari, Kebabs & butter chicken.
Culinary Muse decided to give this 'so called' QSR a shot.
As part of the kebab platter we had:
The Seekh kebab was succulent and beautiful
The billayati murg tikka was beautiful and silky
The Murg Sunheri kebab was also delectable
The Aftabi Fish Tikka - fish kebabs coated with green coriander masala was juicy and delicious
The Nalli Nihari was flavorful but really rich. Those watching their calories must truly avoid
The Dal Makhani was wholesome and beautifully flavored. A must try
On the whole Masalchi Ustad is worth a try. Ample quantity and wholesome make it a good option when one has guests over or a party to host. Sadly they only deliver in and around Bandra as yet
MuseTip: The kebabs are sure shot winner!

The Naan Turnover are hot stuffed naan pockets with butter chicken like gravy and hints of molten cheese on the edges. Quite a sumptuous meal in itself. Although i found the filling is a bit sweet though
