Join this walk from Flora Fountain to the Taj Mahal Palace hotel, reminiscing, discovering and, above all, being nostalgic for all the great food and drinks we're never going to have again! In between, you'll learn about the history of water fountains and legendary party places that have long died out, about a failed coffee venture that brought ice to Bombay, and discover how the end of Prohibition in the US created India’s oldest surviving cocktail! End on a high with a special cocktail especially crafted for this walk by Colaba's Smoke House Deli. This one promises to be a walk to remember in more ways than one!
Start: Flora Fountain
End: Smoke House Deli, Colaba
