Mumbai Shop of the Day: Bungalow Eight
By Mickey Boardman

Driving around Mumbai with tasty... um trusty driver Akbar, MM stumbled upon a sign for Bungalow Eight. Mr. Mickey knew that New York's queen of super glam nightlife Amy Sacco had opened a second outpost of her legendary boite in London's St. Martin's Lane Hotel, but Mumbai? MM was ready to call lawyers about copyright infringement. It turns out Mumbai's Bungalow Eight is the chicest and most interesting home design store. Mr. Mickey has let his shopaholism run rampant all over the globe and he has never seen a location like Bungalow Eight's. The 4000-square-foot emporium is nestled underneath the bleachers of Wankhede Stadium. Note the staggered ceiling in the photo. The owners intended it to feel like an avant-garde home with goodies found from flea markets around the world as well as new merchandise.
