Delhi is a treasure house of street food. People come from afar to try Delhi’s street food trail. In this competitive world, street food vendors add twists to their ware to stand out in the crowd. Sindhi Corner’s heart shaped tikkis are renowned and we have been hearing about these for a while. We decided to check if these tikkis won our heart.
Foodport in Gurgaon delivers food on order. Given the forever busy schedules of Gurgaonites, who are always looking for life-hack tricks, food delivery services are much sought after here. We as consumers keep looking for delivery options that provide light and healthy food which can be had on a daily basis. We recently tried Foodport and were most impressed by their punctuality.
Zambar at Ambience Mall, Gurgaon has a special vegetarian Kerala meal platter-“Sadhya” to celebrate Vishu the Malayalee New Year on Wednesday, 14th April. We got to try this fare and took us more than 1 hour to finish. People who are bored of regular North Indian vegetarian food in this period can try Sadhya for variety. Zambar is also serving the Navratri Thali along with this special vegetarian meal during the instant festival season.
Loaves & Kisses is a couple of glass cases full of baked goodies – cakes, pastries, cookies, bread etc. inside Club Patio, Gurgaon. We recently visited Club Patio for an event and came across Loaves & Kisses. Suckers for all things sweet, we were tempted. So, we did the done thing and stopped at this café for some coffee and comfort.
To offer something new, hoteliers are trying to think of new concepts. Sometimes, the theme does appear to be a little over the top. That said, the proof of the pudding is in the eating. So while we were a little taken aback of the jail themed restaurant “Lockup”, we got curious and recently dined here. Thankfully we do not have any first hand experience, but we are definite what they serve at “Lockup” is not jail food. 🙂
Side Walk is a patisserie inside Hyatt Regency. They have a variety of cakes, tarts, chocolates and bread. One can also order coffee here. The question is whether it is worth the Ring Road traffic to just visit this rather small outlet.
West Delhi is buzzing with new restaurants or pubs opening almost every week. We recently attended the launch party of Habibi, a Mediterranean -Lebanese- Moroccan restaurant in Rajouri Garden. Along with food and drinks, we gotta see some Belly Dance too!
We recently dined at immensely popular Farzi Cafe’s CP outlet. We tried quite a few things and noticed that the focus is mainly on presentation and gimmick rather than the taste. We are all for plating and the drama but in Farzi’s case it was an overkill. At the end of the day the proof is in the taste. We felt their dishes had a lot of oomph but not enough substance. Read on to know why do we think so…
We recently attended Gadré product launch at Cafe Public Connection, Connaught Place. They have introduced packaged and processed seafood in a ready to it form. Seafood is a healthy diet option but cooking can get a little messy. Hence we wanted to explore if Gadré was making our lives any easier.
After trying out several fancy, stylish, theme based, awarded and hyped food joints in Delhi, when we crave for just simple, delicious and no fuss non veg food, we go to The Tandoor. To find out, what makes this place a perfect place to sit and have a peaceful non vegetarian dinner, read on…
The health food sector is catching up in Delhi NCR and Zoe is one such establishment. They deliver their fresh juices, parfaits etc. through order on their website. We like trying new things so we recently tried Zoe stuff.
Radisson Blu at NH-8 has this awesome Sunday brunch and for this month they have gone Mediterranean with some Indian and Chinese items to cater to all. Tackling the salads, starters, soups, main course and dessert require some strong tummy. If you are coming for this, make sure you haven’t skipped the morning exercise.
We did not think much about wine and chocolate being complementary items. But Art Chocolat | Academy of Chocolate Arts had invited us to a session of tasting and pairing wine and chocolate. This was a new thing that we did and it sure was fun!
The dining sector is expanding like wild fire in Gurgaon. We recently lunched at Ancient Barbeque near South City II, Gurgaon and went for the set menu – unlimited starters, Indian buffet main course and desserts. The Kebabs – Biryani – Sewaiayin were totally worth the drive.
Jashn-e-Rekhta was organised by Rekhta.org to celebrate the Urdu language among the Delhi NCR urbanites. They had a line up of plays, music and other performances, art, crafts and food that could be linked to the Urdu culture. Celebrities were in attendance either as performers or as patrons. We had a media invite for this event, which otherwise went rather unnoticed.
