The book combines aspects of the culture, traditions and culinary practices followed by the Christian community “East Indians” of Mumbai. The narrative and recipes are enriched with the sketches of artists Eustace Fernandes and the photography by Michael and Pravin Pol.

Completely different from its Goan counterpart. And mainly the cuisine from Mumbai to Daman. The villages of Bassein are still ripe with the culture of the community.
