Having read raving reviews about this place made me
wishlist this restaurant a few months back. And it remained there until we
chose to drop in on our food walk in Saibaba colony and Rs puram for some
"pre-lunch" food.
I've heard so much about their starters and fusion cuisines, a couple of
friends were lucky enough to meet the chef responsible for the food on one of
their visits. His humility is an exact contrary to what comes on the plate.
The table room is huge, can seat a 120-140 people easily, and the
seating is made quite closer to each other. Not too close but placed just far
away from each other for a decent walk through space. The crowd is noisy and
can hardly give you a peace of mind.
Service is top notch, the servers know what is what and the
waiters who receive the orders know better and their suggestions were just
helpful. Food arrives in less than 15 minutes and successive meal arrives in no
time.
They are famous for their Tandoori Broccoli, Dahi chats, papdi chats and rotis.
I personally LOVED the cream of spinach soup. There was a little excess of flavours
for a soup, but the flavours were top notch. The consistency was rich and was topped off
with cream that enhanced the texture of the soup.
Gilafi Seek kabab- took me by awe. It was supposed to be mediumly spiced as per
the waiter, but tasted a little too bland. I wonder what the plain seek kabab
would taste then. However, the other aspects of the kebab were just perfect.
They were cooked well unlike the other veg ones we’d expect there was no raw flavour
of the flour. Kudos to the chef for mastering the Art.
Tandoori Broccoli- A friend of mine who drools over broccoli spoilt the experience
for me with all the hype. The broccoli was undercooked and tandoored on a wrong
temperature (hotter than it should be I guess) because the outer was scorched
(almost) and inside was fresh and raw. Should be a small error, which shouldn’t
be ignored nonetheless
To summarise, this is one feast for veggies where we get to
lay hands on the finest and the most sought after north Indian foods in one
place and they are pretty much authentic and fusion-ed at the same. Definitely
worth visiting a couple of times until you’re done with almost all the dishes
served here.
