Before you sink your teeth into the bun (bread) and maska (butter) of this tour, first head to leafy Malabar Hill to enjoy the pleasant breeze and get your bearings. Look for the playground with the giant old woman’s boot opposite the Hanging Gardens. (As it happens, this is where Kavi’s father, as an unruly six-year-old, was separated from his parents when Prime Minister Nehru unexpectedly appeared close by for a stroll with his sister and drew crowds. Kavi’s father was of course eventually found.)
