She revealed that two of her favourite haunts in South Mumbai were Shamiana at The Taj Mahal Palace Hotel and Samarkand at The Oberoi. She used to love "lunches at these coffee shops, particularly at Samarkand where the beautiful bay windows gave such a vista of Marine Drive and the Arabian Sea." She expressed sadness that Samarkand was later replaced by luxury shops. However, she noted that "Shamiana is still very much present in all its iconic glory, albeit somewhat modified in the name and game of modernisation."
In the Instagram post, she shared a photo of her husband and herself, enjoying a lavish meal at the iconic restaurant at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel. The "delicious, piping hot food" included delicacies such as chhaunka palak, dal fry, lacchha parathas, and a non-veg pulao. Furthermore, she explained that their "day out together was made even more perfect because Mumbai finally saw some lower temperatures, and the balminess in the air enhanced our experience." Sounds like the best setting for a romantic and leisurely date, doesn't it?

That's not all. In the caption, Archana continued to describe her experiences and enjoyment beyond the food. She wrote, "It was not just lunch at a coffee shop; it was the long travel together from Madh and back, the strolling through Kala Ghoda shopping for whatever caught our fancy, the sharing of a large cup of hot tea while we zipped back trying to beat the evening traffic... it was all fun and wholesome at the same time. Chalo, Mr. Sethi... let's do this more often. Just you and I."
