This was another one of those places that had got rave reviews in the media. It is a branch of a Mumbai based outfit and dishes out vegetarian cuisine - North Indian and international.
I had a stuffed paratha of onion, mint and garlic - it was nothing but a roomali roti stuffed with onions and deep fried. It was not a paratha where the veggies that needed to be stuffed are stuffed into the dough. A big disappointment.
Veg pakoras were nothing but mixed vegetable bajji and instead of using the bajji chilly for one of the bajjis, they had used regular green chilly. The difference between a bajji and a pakora is while both use similar batter of gram flour and red chilly powder, in the case of a bajji the vegetable is dipped in a slightly light batter and fried in oil, while in the case of pakora, the vegetables / cashew is mixed in a slightly thicker batter and handfulls of the batter are then fried in oil.
The aloo paratha was quite good though. I understand the place specialises in Chole puri - I have not tried that out. Portions are not too big. The ambience and decor are great. The place is air conditioned.
Although espresso and other coffees are on the menu, they are nothing but those from a Georgia vending machine. Disappointing, given that it is meant to be an upmarket eatery.
Meal for 2 would come to around INR 500.
