Food Review: PRAKASH HOTEL @ Ghatkopar (East)

Latha & Venkat at Prakash Hotel
I have not added any food pictures as the items were quite common to South-Indian restaurants 


Venkat and I had been to his sister’s home at Ghatkopar on Saturday. We decided to go out for dinner and Latha suggested Prakash Hotel nearby. On entering, Venkat and I were rather worried that there was no crowd. Many a time that suggests that the food is not very good. It was obviously not the case here. 
THUMBS UP 1: We ordered soups to begin with. While Venkat, Latha and I shared two Sweet Corn Soups between us, Latha’s husband sGanesh went for a Tomato Soup. All of us relished our soups. In fact, Venkat was surprised that the Sweet Corn Soup tasted very different. That was because it was very fresh.
THUMBS UP 2: The Cheese Pakodas that we ordered came with two types of chutneys – coconut and kotmir chutneys. Yummy!
THUMBS UP 3: The Spring Roll was late in coming, just as the waiter had warned us. But it was definitely worth the wait.
THUMBS UP 4: Venkat’s Cheese Pav Bhaji was smothered in cheese in a nice way. He simply loved it!


Ganesh
THUMBS UP 5: Ganesh liked the Sada Dosa that he ordered. 
THUMBS UP 6: I asked for a Medhu-Vada Sambar. It was delicious. The coconut chutney and sambar were ever so fresh. 
THUMBS UP 7: Venkat had a Kulfi-Falooda and Ganesh had a Kulfi.
THUMBS UP 8: The best part was that after all the above-mentioned items, the bill came to just Rs. 700.


Wall decor at the hotel
THUMBS DOWN 1: The service could have been better and there was water dripping on Latha from the AC right above her head. On telling them to check, they simply switched it off.
