An idyllic Indian village, Mangar is a picture-perfect destination brimming with exotic locals, a thriving street-art scene, and a few surprises hidden in its nooks and corners. At first sight, Mangar comes across as a regular village, one of many that are often considered the lifeline of India. […]
My visit to All Creatures Great & Small (ACGS) in Silakhari Village, a half hour drive from Gurgaon, Haryana took place on a sunny Sunday afternoon. My friend’s son was researching animal cruelty for a school project, and this had been the reason for this somewhat impromptu trip. […]
Situated at a 3 hours drive from the capital of India, Neemrana Fort Palace in Rajasthan is one of the many forts and heritage properties that are slowly being converted into luxurious and boutique residences and hotels. The drive from New Delhi is pleasant with the roads being […]
With a modern chic décor comprising of soothing whites and grays, comfortable padded seating, and cool gentle lighting, it’s easy to mistake Sublym, at first glance, for a club. Motorized blinds that create a partition between tables, furniture and lights that are classy, and music at a conversational […]
No one likes to be proved wrong. I’m no different. The only exception though is when the matter revolves around food, especially if it’s good food. I’m not a big fan of all the so-called self-brewing bars that have been a rave for the last couple of years […]
A 40-odd minute drive on the NH 8, towards Jaipur, from Gurgaon’s HUDA Metro Station, is all it takes to reach the famous Old Rao Dhaba. As you leave the high rises of Gurgaon (or Lutyen’s Delhi if that’s where you’re coming from) behind, you realize that the […]
I’ve been a Stone Oven regular for years now. It was and still is my favourite place to eat at the food court in MGF Metropolitan Mall on MG Road in Gurgaon. It started off as Stone Oven and then for a few years changed its name to […]
It’s hard to categorize Chhabra Restaurant. It’s not the modern restaurant that one finds in malls or even city arcades and nor is it the conventional Dhaba. A village restaurant maybe, or a city-Dhaba? In the end, it doesn’t really matter how we categorize it because like with […]
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 […]
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 – […]
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 […]
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 […]
The problem with any good idea is that there are always people ready to jump onto it without a second thought. Food Trucks are catching up and we’ve been lucky so far as to have a good to excellent collection of those. How long before a “bad” one […]
I’ll admit I’m not one to order food for home-delivery on a normal basis. It’s only ever reserved for Pizza or when unexpectedly guests arrive. Out of pure experimentation, a little bit of research for a post I am doing, and because I had a few online food […]
I’m going to say this flat out right in the beginning; I don’t see the big deal about restaurant buffets. Buffets are meant for huge gatherings, marriages, birthdays, and maybe they are somewhat suitable for breakfasts as well, but they are meant for where the idea is to […]
