MUMBAI
Best cocktail bars in Mumbai 2026
Mumbai’s nightlife has entered a more deliberate era, and the best cocktail bars in Mumbai 2026 reflect that shift. The city is no longer chasing loud openings or maximal menus. Instead, it is building rooms with intention. Nariman Point has found its golden hour ritual. Worli is hosting art and numbered drinks behind secret doors. Khar hums to vinyl. Mahalaxmi Race Course hides a theatrical bar inside a century-old structure. Bandra slows down for aperitivo. These are not ju

Nara Thai Gurugram Brings Bangkok’s Most Loved Thai Institution to India’s Corporate Capital
There are Thai restaurants, and then there are institutions. Nara Thai belongs firmly to the latter. Born in Bangkok in 2003 and quietly building a global reputation long before Thai cuisine became fashionable dining-room shorthand, Nara has always been about restraint, balance, and a certain calm confidence. Its arrival in Gurugram feels less like a launch and more like a long-awaited arrival. Located in the heart of the city’s dining circuit, Gurugram finally gets a Thai

She’s Here Gurgaon and the quiet confidence of modern Japanese dining
There is a certain kind of opening that does not announce itself loudly. It simply arrives, fully formed, already aware of who it is. She’s Here Gurgaon belongs to that category. A modern Japanese restaurant in Sector 27, Gurugram, it comes from the team behind the much-loved Call Me Ten, but this is not a sequel or an expansion built on familiarity alone. This is an evolution, sharper in focus, more assured in its pacing, and designed for a city that knows what it likes. Th

Drop Dead Sexy Assagao Opens in Goa, Where You Are the Artwork
The first thing you notice at Drop Dead Sexy is not the bar. It is not the cocktails either. It is the sensation of being looked at, not in a self-conscious way, but in a way that feels oddly affirming. This new immersive art bar in Assagao does not ask who you are or why you came. It assumes you belong. It assumes you are already worthy of attention. Drop Dead Sexy is imagined as a living artwork, a space designed by Siddharth Kerkar where the guest is not a visitor but t

ParTTwo Bengaluru: Level Up to ParTTwo on Lavelle Road

Boutique Hotel in Sri Lanka: Waking Up to the Ocean at The Hotel SL
There are many coastal stays that promise sea views. Very few deliver them without compromise. The Hotel SL does something quietly radical for a boutique hotel in Sri Lanka, every single room faces the ocean. No side glances. No partial views. You open the blinds and the beach fills the room before anything else does. I stayed here for three nights at the end of January, and that one detail shaped the entire experience. This is a small, design-forward beachfront stay on Sri
