Description:	At bombay sweet shop we have always been inspired by the luring idea of snack stalls at the art deco theatres of bombay. The mithai bar is a nod to the historical concession stands. The use of glazed tiles, antique art deco lights and teak wood panelling reference the heritage of the neighbourhood. The design reinterprets the nostalgic charm of Bombay’s neighbourhood bakeries. The old world charm and warmth is offset by a fresh colour mix. The flooring is a whimsical chequered palette of green, pink, terracotta and ivory tiles. There are little messages detailed in the floor and walls. A brass inlay ladoo in the floor, 200 gram weights in the center of the cafe tables and hand painted messages on the walls. The cafe even has its own Ghoda (painted and sculpted) you can spot. My favorite place to sit is the mezzanine balcony seating perched above the cafe. The curated products are displayed in a hand crafted timber library. And a vinyl record station is sneaked in between the shop and the cafe.
