Where authenticity is promising! - Zaffran
No wonder how many times we expect to have a lush fine dine experience keeping the food and the service and what not in mind! But then, somehow something comes to a flaw which overall defies all the joy aspect.
Well, Zaffran could be one of the outlet which will probably not let down in any factors. Considering the outlet we had visited recently, is located in DLF Star Mall in Gurgaon. A perfect lavish oriented seating with a calm aura and warm welcome drove us to a wow impression since the start.
Talking about interiors, a ready seat, an open kitchen, finely lit and authentic ambiance was all for set for us. The contemporary decor was best in class especially, the high lights on ceiling were alluring to look at . And moreover, their customer handling was worth appreciating. 100 patrons can easily be filled at once!
Moving to food fanatics, the appetizers and mains were indeed well taken care of in terms of taste quotient. Presentations were simple yet looked fantasizing.
In Starters we had,
➊ Jhumta Kukkad. Quite a nice preference of boneless chicken marinated with rum and tandoori masala cooked in tandoor. Tasted delight and mild spices made it much delightful to eat. Chicken pieces were tender. The garnish of wholesome carrots cut shaped like a heart is much adorable. *HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*
âž‹ Murg Chilli Milli. A boneless dish similar to Jhumta kukkad but quite much spiced up. Marinaded with ginger, onion, lemon, green chilli and herbs, the chilli were highly dominant. Presentation with cucumber and tomato is sober and quite a relief to mellow down the spice buds.
➌ Dahi ke kebab. Yogurt Kebab. Delectable curd kebab was fresh and tasteful. The color of kebab came really astonishing. Additionally, the garnish with onion, lettuce, tomato was indeed alluring.
In Mains we had,
➊ Tari wala murgh. Chicken cooked in traditional curry was a kind of 'tari', someone could not easily find. Typical home style spices are being added and tasted heavenly. The rich thick creamy aspect was divine to taste. Chicken pieces were cooked perfectly. Paired well with Butter Naan. *HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*
âž‹ Zaffrani Chicken Biryani. Typical Handi Biryani with Raita. Special rice cooked with marinaded chicken harsingar phool served dum style. Taste was so well driven to admiration. Spices are sober and Raita had no flaws.
In Desserts we had,
➊ Phirni. The kesar phirni was absolutely wonderful hyderabadi delight. The delish yellowish look was alluring to see and the taste was much satisfying.
âž‹ Pineapple Raita. Zestful sweet raita topped with pineapple pieces was again a major delight to desserts. Ended so splendid with sweet note, the sweetness was indeed well balanced. *HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*
The kind of aura and what makes the experience so perfect is the way we got treated. Relish and timely service, made us appreciate them once we walked off from the outlet. Overall considering the food, the service, and a remarkable experience we admire their hospitality and wish to visit them again! :)
