About Moving Cart Mobile Restaurant Bus

Started restaurant in bus (Moving Cart) idea a year back in 2012 at Chennai city, The moving cart was opened to public on 28th Of March 2013 in Mumbai too. This bus runs along the queens necklace at Marine drive taking first turn from Nariman point and goes ahead towards Chowpatty beach taking back the turn from Wilson College. Yes the same chowpatty beach very famous for Ganesh festival visarjan. With 12 different types of meal options as Indian and Continental items on the meal menu, People can select VEGETARIAN (Whole Day) or NON-VEGETARIAN meal (10:00 PM Only) which is pre-cooked and is served 3 time in a day at 1 PM, 7 O Clock in Evening and Lat night 10 PM. One complete fun ride takes 1 hour and 30 minutes which seems that the bus moves very slowly as the total stretch is not more then 2 to 3 km one way.

Speciality of this mobile restaurant is this fun ride along with the tasty meal of your choice at the table on upper deck which is a Open air bus section or at 100% pollution and noise free AC lower deck section of bus. While the lower deck AC section has a great interiors with sofa and one to one dinning table seating with music playlist option, the open air upper deck do give the same options with a fresh cool breeze of Arabian sea which gives a different special feeling of having meal on ride. This bus welcomes online booking and special offers discounts for groups like school, corporates, birthday parties, meetings, kitties, wedding anniversary and private get together events etc.

Soon this company named ‘THE MOVING CART’ may start a similar open air bus ride in Bandra too, Let me guess the best possible place may be Carter Road Bandstand Sea Face or Reclamation ? Hope for the best wishing the company luck for the success in Mumbai.

One of my concerns about meal is that with Jain community people and those who do not eat Non-veg food, Will they be comfortable in AC section of bus eating veg food ? Since, they might feel packed Air Conditioned may be smelling Non Veg food which is definitely a no for 10:00 Pm ride. What do you say ? Hope if some arrangements made it will work out the best.
