Since 1949, and to this very day, Bombay has been under a state of prohibition. A personal permit is required by law if one is to “continue to require foreign liquor and country liquor for preservation and maintenance of my health.” Set apart from a family room, there is a special place which has come to be known unofficially as a Permit Room. Herein liquor can be sold and imbibed, but only for the goodness of one’s health.

India Gimlet

The old-established drink devised for sailors to evade scurvy. This one shakes London Dry Gin with Rose’s lime and celery bitters. Finished with a touch of dill. 9.90

Cyrus Irani

Bob ‘Short for Kate’: Organic Sauvignon Blanc, 2021, Marlborough

Edenvale Chardonnay, S.E. Australia (Alcohol-removed)

An adventurous blend from Austria with hints of sherry, coconut and salty freshness. Unfiltered, hence slightly cloudy. Not your customary Sauvignon Blanc. (Ve) 13.90 / 38.00 / 52.00
