City restaurants are always geared up to cater to the ever-changing demands of foodies. Since change is the spice of life, food joints are constantly adding to the variety of cuisines so as to spice up the taste buds of their regulars. Constantly updating and innovating their menu cards, joints in the city now have a new attraction – changing menus.

There's a whole array of new cuisines laid out by these restaurants for people who are ready to experiment. Silk Route in Koregoan Park changes its menu every six months to add variety to its platter. According to N T Sawhaney, proprietor, Silk Route, "Competition is not why our menu changes every six months. We do so to provide variety and change to our customers." Manas Resort in Mulshi is yet another restaurant which follows the trend of updating its menu as per the likes of its customers. Along with the Indian and Chinese restaurant, they have now launched an additional Thai restaurant in the same premises. Dilip Watve, manager, says, "We started the Thai restaurant not because the demand for Indian food decreased but because we wanted to cater to the additional demand for Thai food."

To serve various kinds of customers, some restaurants are trying to bring a sense of entirety to their menu. Polka Dots in Koregaon Park and Aundh has added some mutton delicacies to their existing menu. The restaurant never served mutton earlier but due to public demand decided to update it. Now their customers have a larger variety of dishes to choose from. In order to entice customers, Mahesh Lunch Home in Camp has introduced new delicacies in its appetizers as well as the main course. Sudhakar S Kotian, manager, says, "We have added new dishes in chicken and fish to add variety to the existing menu. If our customers get a wide variety to chose from, they will keep coming back."

For seafood lovers, Coconut Grove near Pune railway station is a well-known name. The restaurant is now out with exclusive coastal delicacies, including 15 new dishes, finalised after a lot of test and trial. The food served here is inspired by that cooked in remote villages of Madurai, and Mangalore. Soul Curry, near Wakad has introduced the unique concept of a non-veg thali. Talking about it, Deshwant Patil of Soul Curry says, "Usually, thalis are offered only for South Indian and vegetarian food. But we thought why not have a non-veg thali?" He adds, "We have five items in the thali which include chicken, mutton, a combination of chicken and mutton, sea food and a mix of chicken, mutton as well as sea food."
