Carry the spirit of Mumbai in your pocket with this hand-painted flask

The Bombay Store

It's not that SoBo is the only visual marker of what the entire city represents. But it is one quintessential part of this tale. This writer's tryst with the area began at an early age with trips to Crawford Market and later, with her first job where her office stood exactly opposite Café Leopold. Between working hours that were strictly clocked and catching a train home, the café was viewed only from the outside where she would squint to spot the bullet holes from the 2008 terror attacks till a bus or cab halted and took her to the station. One day, finally, the time to breakfast at Leopold presented itself after arriving an hour earlier than punch-in time. The eggs were fine, but the ambiance was spectacular. Besides a memory of this moment, a souvenir would be great too. Like The Bombay Store's stainless steel flask designed by Café Leopold. The hand-painted flask holds an image of a server bringing on good times with much food and drink. And its black matte finish brings out the bright, almost Gen Z-like chaotic colour palette. The flask can hold up to 230 ml and at 150 gm, is light on the pocket, literally. It makes for the perfect gifting option for those who want to carry a bit of Bombay in their pocket.
