Giani’s is somewhat of an institution when it comes to ice-cream. Surprisingly, I had not even heard about it till about a couple of years back when one of my family friends took me to this really tiny, dingy looking outlet of Giani’s in Connaught Place. I refrained […]
Life is all about new experiences, and when it involves food, things get even more exciting. Kerala House in New Delhi hosts an Onam Sadhya for three days every year, celebrating the festival. During this time, anyone can have a taste of the food that is unique to […]
I have a heart burn that has stayed with me since last night. The last time I experienced a similar heart burn was when in school I found out that the girl I had a secret crush on for almost a year was already seeing someone. Fortunately, this […]
There’s a new kid in town and it’s ready to gobble up everything that’s placed in-front of it. The team (Raghav and Sudha) behind The Sunday Book Club had been contemplating starting a food chat for quite some time now. In fact, the idea was often brought up […]
In the middle of Navratras and the week and on a day when India had just lost a semi-final game in the cricket World Cup, I expected people to be home. My expectation proved to be true as I entered Zaffran with my family to find it completely […]
I’ve always been a fan of Pizza Express. Their food, the world over, is exceptionally good and pretty much consistent through different regions. It’s a great change from the usual, especially in places where good options are scarce or if you are unsure about the other places and […]
The more I eat outside in order to write about it, the more I realize that while the food industry in India is re-inventing itself in the best way possible, it is sadly lagging a decade behind when it comes to social media. I’m an ardent participant in […]
It’s safe to say that when a new idea pops up in someone’s mind and is implemented to even moderate success, it doesn’t take long before that idea becomes a trend and everyone starts to follow it. I don’t know who rejuvenated the delivery-only food system in Gurgaon, […]
When I moved to Gurgaon from Delhi a decade and a half back this was a completely different city. Sunflower fields occupied the spaces that are now malls and it would take me anywhere from 20-30 minutes to reach South Delhi at any time of the day. I […]
Ever so often I’ll return to a restaurant I like and find something new or exciting that I haven’t covered in my review. It becomes quite a task to redo a review every time I visit a place and I save that only if there’s a marked increase […]
Named after the sound that bees make, Zaza Box is a delivery-only organic meal preparing newbie in G-town (Gurgaon). In a world that is increasingly getting health conscious and in a city where most jobs tend to be desk based, Zaza Box aims to get you to eat […]
You’re not going just discover Farmout (unless like me your pastime includes browsing through Zomato). It’s hidden on the first floor towards the back of Galleria Market in Gurgaon which in turn is filled with tiny food outlets that could give any food-street around the world a complex. […]
Another day, another food truck, same city; Gurgaon is fast becoming the hotbed for the latest startup trend in the culinary world. Food trucks are everywhere now, on TV, in movies, and of course on the streets. Even though I’m yet to try all the available trucks in […]
A faux food truck; Call me a sucker but I love marketing gimmicks and Wanchai by Kylin plays it well by making it’s frontage resemble a food-truck and in this process also manages to stand out among all the other food-court counters at Select City Walk. Serving North-Eastern […]
As I think about Drift I find it difficult to categorise it; it’s not exactly a fine dining restaurant and nor is it one of those new-age restaurants that open every day and close every third day. There’s certain cosiness about Drift, a sense of familiarity and nostalgia […]
