    Hoppipola, Galleria-Powai; A playful pub in Powai.

    A queue at the door waiting to be seated, Mediterranean style white and blue interiors, blackboards as table tops, great music, an extensive starter menu that spanned across four pages – these were my first observations as I stepped into the recently opened bar called the Hoppipola in Powai’s Gal…

That’s exactly seems to be the motto of The Kitchen district at Hyatt Manesar. The Kitchen District is a multi-cuisine casual restau…

    Sulafest : The Woodstock of India

    SulaFest – a heady mix of music, wine, fashion and much much more at the Sula Vineyards open air amphitheater – was a huge success and sold out once again!

    Mistral, Ambience Mall-Vasant Kunj: Must Try!

    I don’t know why I had avoided dining at Mistral despite hearing good things about the restaurant. Maybe it had something to do with its location in a mall. But when I do finally try it out, I can’t think of a single reason for not going back!

    Lohri at Punjab Grill : Too much too little

    Even though we celebrate three new years in the span of a year, Parsi’s are a bit thin on the festival front. This is one of the reasons why we jump at celebrating just about anything.

    Nutcracker @ Kala Ghoda Mumbai; A quaint little cafe in Mumbai

    Going back home to Delhi always reminds me of the quote “Cooking is Love made Edible”. Mom’s Dal, Chicken, Roti brings about tremendous sense of comfort and happiness with every bite.

    Tilt all day, Lower Parel, Mumbai : A balanced act

    Some visits to restaurants create memories and some despite the hype around them, fail to create a buzz. My recent visit to Tilt All Day located in the Kamala Mills compounds was a mish mash of both. The restaurant is located near the gate 4 entrance to the compound behind the netted mini footbal…

    The Little Door @ Andheri West, Mumbai: Alice in Wonderland?

    I do not claim any marks for creativity here! The little door does invoke images from Alice in Wonderland. So with much curiosity, excitement and trepidation of the unknown, I ventured to The Little Door to try out their new Menu
