It may be rainy cats and dogs in Mumbai, but that doesn’t stop two creative, talented Assistant Chefs, Akanksha Saigal and Vincy Rebello — working under the baton of yet another super talented, Chef Rohan D’souza of Silver Beach Hospitality, Mumbai –to create and share this yet-to-be-launched signature gourmet star  (yet not on their menu) at their soon to be launched free style European dining cafes called Silver Beach Cafe in Mumbai.
