A "must-have" book for a trip to Mumbai
We bought this book on the stregnth of our previous lonely planet guide books , and it proved itself to be every bit as valuable. We were only in Mumbai for 4 days, but during that time we were able to visit all the places that we wanted to go, thanks to the clear directions and advice. Although when we arrived at our hotel and shown the first room it was difficult not to giggle at the truth of lonely planets description"the paint is not always attached to the walls asfirmly as it could be"!! There is no love here
There are several problems with this "guide" to Mumbai.When you visit a city, you usually want to experience it through the eyes of someone who loves it.Someone who can share their enthusiasm for the city and the cultures and artifacts that make that city interesting.

I live in Bombay and own a farm in Goa on the banks of the Dudhsagar River.Our farm called Rivera Farm is situated at Collem about 2 min from the Collem railway station and about 20 min from the Dudhsagar Water Falls. We have developed a huge 20Hecter(50acre) Spice and Horticultural farm, where we grow various spices like Clove,Cinnamon, Nutmeg,Cardamon,Black Pepper etc. & fruits like Mangoes(alphansos), Coconuts, Pineapple, Bananas, Papaya,Betal Nut etc.We have now opened our farm for Public viewing & Nature Lovers. A guided tour is also conducted here, where uses of various spices and their properties are explained. A lot of Tourist from around the world have already visited and have highly praised our achivement.After reading your article about the lack of eating places near the waterfalls,we have started a restaurant here. It is called THE RIVERA SPICE VILLAGE GARDEN Restaurant. Our food has also become very popular with the tourist which includes a varaity of Continental and Local Goan cusine, specialised in fish and jumbo prawns.We also cater for vegeterians. Our food is cooked in a very hygenic enviroment Do write to me for further details at amitchogle@hotmail.com ... Read more
