Moving to food fanatics, we had got some of the lavish dishes that not only tricked with taste but how they're distinctively prepared and enticingly presented.
In Starters, we had,
➊ Sambhar Cappuccino. Sambhar nicely served with coconut foam topped with madras powder was thick and splendid in taste. Served with Baked Dosa Crisp the pair made a sublime variant of traditional south Indian cuisine. *HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*
➋ Tempura Fried Prawns with Milagai Podi. Tiger prawns splendidly served with mayo and gun powder. Prawns were extraordinarily sized and astonishing in terms of taste and utter crispiness. Presented nicely on steel rulers kept on a wooden plank, the prawns tasted heavenly. Gun powder played a role for a nice harsh salty balance. *HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*
➌ Kung Pao Chicken. Chicken cubes perfectly marinated with spicy tamarind sauce and topped with coconut foam and cashews sprinkled. The foam blended a good role balancing the chicken dish in terms of spiciness and tangy taste.
➍ Dahi Bhalla Ice Cream. A puffed rice, pomegranate dish topped with dahi bhalla ice cream which is being nitrogen frosted to bone chilling -20 degree temperature. Nitrogen doesn't harm to human appetite resulting a good amalgamation to the appetizer. Bhalla mixed with curd turned into ice cream is really a delight, and with dehydrated tamarind chutney perfectly creates a tangy and sweetness balance. The curd remains chilled till the last bite and the crunchy elements don’t get soggy till the end. This dish is pure art and worth appreciating. *HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*
➎ Pao Bhaji Zinker Burger. Served inside a hollow Rubik’s cube which once lift, reveals a Indian street food tricked into burger sprinkled with spicy garlic and peanut chili chutney. Maharashtra's famous dish is carried away with their amazing paao tikki layered with cheese. Chilli pieces are being topped on Rubik's cube for a tinch of spiciness added to it. Presentation is worth appreciating and detailed, rest assuming it a burger or Paao Bhaji is upto us! *HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*
❻ Kick Ass Honey Chilli Potato. Feels like ordinary honey chilli potato till the time it's not being served. But, once it came to the table, it tricked with mouth watering taste! The pieces were stacked like Jenga blocks and from inside, the cheese and mashed potato were alluring.
In Pizza we had,
➊ Mix Meat Pizza. Served half stuffed with Keema Boti and half with Chicken Tikka. This pizza is a delight as we don't get two delicacies served in a single pizza. Cheese was adequate and moreover the delight was it's flacky crust, as it felt really light, luscious and zestful.
In Mains we had,
➊ Compressed Paneer Barrels in Thai Makhni Curry. Decent sized paneer barrels racked on each was a absolute delight to see. Coconut cream is being poured while serving gives a rich creamy and mesmerizing taste to it. Prank is, the cream later gives an impression of having a thai cuisine instead of a paneer dish. *HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*
➋ Rampuri Mutton. A slow cooked taar mutton dish finely served with utter richness and thickness. The orange color radiant signifies saffron and cardamom brushed on top. The dish tasted divine and indeed heavenly for gosht lovers. *HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*

Later, Wholesome Whipped cream being poured into nitrogen is being added into the dessert. Absolutely class apart taste, and an added factor is that the plate is also eatable. *HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*
➋ Pranked Rose Kheer. A traditional kheer has never looked so delectable with such garnishing. Topped with pistachio and later, what has been added was exciting to see! Chef, came with roses, poured them into nitrogen and magically broke them into the kheer was an absolute delight to watch. The kheer was divine and the rose essence was quite authentic. *HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*
In Drinks we had,
➊ Kitkat Shake. Decent shake. No Flaws. Just a thick shake with a KitKat on top!

Last but not to miss, their in-house brewery is splendid. Drank the premium beer and the wheat beer, they both were smoothed and authentic.
Staffing is class apart, seeing all of the staffs at least attending once with kindness is a service excellence. Additionally, Chef himself addressing for some food stories and knowledge sharing is a kind of factors really makes the experience way more joyous.
