Rivers 2 Ocean
FRESHEST SEAFOOD
With an exotic Champagne and caviar bar, Kullu trout, Hokkaido scallops and blue crab on the menu, Rivers 2 Ocean, which opens its doors on June 23, offers a delightful culinary voyage across the high seas. Great seafood meets a charming ambience at this newest Mumbai offering by restaurateurs Zorawar and Dildeep Kalra. The menu is all about fresh produce from the sea, procured from across the globe and local fisheries, and experiences that aren’t easy to find in the city such as a raw bar tasting and caviar section.
FROM THE SEAS A highlight here is the cold hamachi and caviar plate which has hand pounded seasoned hamachi served with selection of caviar, avocado tartare, spring onions. The cured salmon and tuna poke, braised mussels, and truffled red lobster with butter and leek broth, are some of the best picks on the menu.
DESIGN PALATE Bathed in aqua shades of blues, white and sea-green, the sprawling restaurant has a design effect of ripples on water that runs all through the space from the bar to the soft furnishings. They have two private dining rooms that offer a feel of crisp, bright sunrays piercing through clear water created with the use of optic fibres.
FEAST FOR THE EYES Rivers to Oceans has a ‘live kitchen’ with the aquatic produce laid out on a well-lit ice bed. The seafood is stored in special conditions to maintain freshness. The restaurant also offers Mumbai it’s first champagne and caviar bar with a wide variety of sparkling wines by the glass.
