Stomach, Chinese restaurant in Bandra West, Mumbai, India.
Stomach is a Chinese and takeaway restaurant on Waterfield Road in Bandra West, one of the busiest commercial areas on Mumbai's western side. The place offers both a sit-down dining area and a takeaway counter for those who prefer to eat elsewhere.
Stomach opened in the early 2000s and was among the first Chinese restaurants to set up on Waterfield Road. Over time it built a steady following in a neighborhood that has since become one of Mumbai's most active dining areas.
Stomach serves the style of Chinese cooking that Mumbai locals call Indo-Chinese, where fried rice and spicy noodles are seasoned with local spices and sauces. This style has become so rooted in the city that it is treated as its own culinary tradition, separate from both Chinese and Indian food.
The restaurant sits close to Bandra Station, which makes it easy to reach whether you are arriving by train or on foot from the surrounding streets. Both the dine-in area and the takeaway counter are available, so the visit can be as short or as long as you need.
Two dishes that regulars point to most often are the Burnt Chilli Rice and the Mongolian Chicken Dry, which are not found in the same form at other spots nearby. The restaurant's name is a plain English word that plays on hunger in a direct and slightly playful way, which stands out on a street full of more formal restaurant names.
