If you’ve been living in Gurgaon and enjoy eating pizza – I know people who don’t – then there’s a good chance that you’ve either tried Crusty Gourmet Pizza or have at least heard about them. Any pizza related query on numerous city based Facebook groups will have […]
Although I haven’t been in the “business” of food blogging for that long, the last 6 months have been an eye opener. Besides getting an insider’s look into the world of blogging – not as simple as it is made out to be – it has been the […]
I’ve been eating Sushi for a few years now and my love for it has only grown in this time. One reason could possibly be that I’ve always been fascinated by Japanese culture – films, anime, books, the country with its amalgamation of tradition and the future, […]
Oh Boy! Oh Boy-o-Boy!! Oh Boy-o-Boy-o-Boy!!! 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6… 15, 16, 17, 18… 27, 28, 29, 30… 35, 36, 37… 41, 42, 43, 44… 58, 59, 60… I’m starting to get tired here… 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78. Phew! Wait… Add […]
You know that feeling before an exam when you think you are on top of everything, and then a friend comes in to your room and tells you about some chapter or book that you completely overlooked, which makes your smile turns to a frown? That’s exactly what’s […]
A while back I wrote about the 13 Annoying People I’ve had Over for Dinner. The response I got to that was varied; most people took it as a joke, which it was, and many were able to relate to it from personal experiences. Some messaged me stating […]
It’s tiny, it’s a little confined, it’s impersonal, you either use the bathroom before sitting down or hold on till you’re done with the meal, but nevertheless I love it. Over the years I’ve grown fond of tiny places even if sometimes it means being a little uncomfortable. […]
I like walking into Spectra; the glass floor, the little entrance alley with the glass wine-rack walls, and then suddenly the vastness of a bright, shiny, and busy kitchen floor. Food is in the dead centre of the restaurant and the seating gets sidelined towards the edges – […]
It’s the movie that started a number of careers. Ask any food-truck running in the city and there is a good chance that half of them have been influenced by Chef. At a time when MasterChef in its numerous avatars is ruling over our TV screen and Eat […]
Some of you might be aware that I love films (and TV series) to the extent that I spend a considerable amount of my time and my earnings on watching them. In fact, before I took on to writing about food, I polished my still non-existent writing skills […]
There’s no smoke without fire they say, and I’m glad that the chef’s fiery passion to cook good food is still burning bright over at Smoke House Deli in DLF Promenade, Vasant Kunj, New Delhi. Elegance, charm, class and one of the best services I’ve come across in […]
I’ll be honest – I always am on the blog but just to reiterate the fact – in saying that off late I’ve become wary of small establishments that have cropped up in the hundreds across the city, mainly doing deliveries, having limited seating, with an atmosphere that […]
Eating at Kyoto is a humbling experience. Kyoto being not the Japanese city, but a small restaurant in Gurgaon serving, you guessed it, Japanese food. It’s a quiet place in all respects; the guests are subdued, the decor is simple, the service is gentle. It’s a restaurant where […]
Everything in the end comes to the freshness of the ingredients. From the light recently made “hand-stretched” dough to the side salad in the children’s menu, to all the remaining ingredients, Jamie’s pizzas are now certainly amongst my favorites in the country. The simplicity of it all is wonderful and very true to what Jamie Oliver stands for as a culinary legend.
There is something magical about wine. I’m no connoisseur, but when it comes to alcohol, aged grape juice (did I just commit blasphemy by calling it that?) is probably my favourite. Narrated by Russell Crowe, and I hope he managed to get lots of cases of wine as […]
