MEAL-O-DRAMA, THE MODERN BISTRO - RAJOURI GARDEN

 The stretch between Rajouri Garden and Tagore Garden is loaded with restaurants that aim to attract the eyes of potential customers. Some have massive hoardings, some blast music, while some stick to the basics, the food. Meal-o-drama aims to aquire, and retain, customers by offering them a brilliant all round experience as soon as they walk in.

THE AMBIENCE

 In very simple words, Meal-o-drama is beautiful. The place has a very soothing, dim lighting while the DJ plays slow, yet fresh, music. There are two seating areas, one on the inside with club-esque lighting and a projector screen. During lunch hours, there was live music as well! The area beyond two glass doors is very classy. The flooring is stone and there are full-walled windows which let you see the busy Rajouri Garden market on the outside.



THE MEAL

 The menu at Meal-o-drama is vast! And let me tell you, the choices offered within the cuisines they serve aren't limited either. We started off with a two drinks which were eccentric in their name, their looks as well as their taste! One very citrusy, with a tinge of cinnamon called something along the line of a Fresh Morning, while the other a blue fizzy lemonade called the Electric Lemonade. Both were pretty tangy and refreshing to wash down the heavy carbohydrates we were intaking.



There were pretty good options for the appetisers but we stuck with what works well in North India, North Indian food! We went with the Afro Chicken Tikka to kickoff our meal. The chicken was tender, and the spicy peri-chilli marinade worked well with the chutney-pyaaz combo! Next up, the Italian Sausage Quesedilla was a a gentle reminder that continental food isn't bad either. The heavy cheese and sausage filling between the soft tortilla bread was worth the deviation from North Indian. But going back to our roots was evident as we ordered the Bhatti Ka Murgh which was probably the BEST VERSION OF TANDOORI CHICKEN I've had in a long time! This is why I love Indian food. It never disappoints. But to test that theory, we ordered the Sinful Cruise Ship Platter which was a continental platter including the Mac N Cheese Pizza, Italian Meatballs, BBQ Wings, Fried Fish and Chips! The platter itself was more than enough to fill up two people, but we went ahead and finished everything and prepared ourselves for the main course.





For main course, we went light. Only the following items: A Jalepeno-Olive naan, Peri-Peri Parantha, Rajasthani Laal Maas and Kadhai Chicken. That is all. THAT IS ALL. DON'T JUDGE ME FOR EATING TOO MUCH. THE FOOD WAS REALLY GOOD. THNX. The meat in both the dishes was cooked beautifully and the spice was just right. The breads were new to me and welcoming!


Finally for dessert, we ordered the Darsan with Icecream! The Darsan is a fried noodle dish, topped off with honey and served with two scoops of vanilla icecream for contrast. The noodles are hot, yeh syrupy and sweet while the ice-cream is smooth and cold. Kind of like Jalebi, but if only the Jalebi was served after noodles.



THE VERDICT

 In conclusion, the food at Meal-o-drama was worth the drama! The place is very hip and has a good vibe while the food they serve is perfection as well. Every cuisine they offer on the menu has been paid equal attention and the staff is courteous and always has a smile on their face. The live music was a wonderful addition!

BEAUTIFUL NORTH EASTERN AND TIBETAN FOOD IN CHAMPA GALI!

PATTA CAFE, CHAMPA GALI   Patta Cafe is hidden away in the most scenic of places that Delhi has to offer, Champa Gali. It's a beautiful cafe with loads of colors to boast. The open area outside the door is perfect for Instagram worthy content as well! As soon as you enter, the vibe calms you down. It's like you've been transported to some hillside café in the North Eastern foothills. The decor, the music, the food, Patta Cafe is all about the roots! Their menu justifies the same. They have a variety of cuisine including Tibetan, Naga, Bhutanese and Chinese. I would like to take this moment to first mention Tenzin, the friend of the owner who waited our table at Patta Cafe. He was the sweetest server possible. He suggested we try some of the more authentic dishes that they had to offer. So we went with what he suggested. We went for the Tsampa Shake, which I did not try at Ama Cafe in Majnu Ka Tila because they said it's made from wheat. But here I went with w

LIT BAR AND RISTORANTE, GK3 Greater Kailash 3, or Masjid Moth, is the lesser known cousin of the other GKs. is the posh one. Not that GK1 or GK2 are any less, but my God, is GK3 beautiful. With restaurants like Mainland China, The Velvet Room and LIT, GK3 is a very well hidden treasure. Talking about modern, sharp and abstract beauty, LIT Bar and Ristorante fits right in! You're welcomed by sharp edges on the exterior and a wall with microherbs and plants that spell out LIT. As soon as you step through the elegant barricading, you're greeted by subtle hues of blue and shades of grey. 50 of them. (Ooh. Mood set.)

THE MINISTRY OF MAGIC - Ministry of Beer: Review

Image
MINISTRY OF BEER, GURGAON They say magic isn't real. They say it's only fables that have kept us believing in this fantasy. I say, you haven't been to Ministry of Beer in Sector 29, Gurgaon yet. It was just the two of us again, my cousin and I, and the next spot on our venture-list was indeed, the biggest property in Gurgaon, Ministry of Beer. Their branch in Connaught Place, the biggest there, hosts a human-sized Bumblebee (the Transformer) which was enough to get me excited about my visit to the one at Gurgaon! But it was a complete overhaul in the experience. From a ravage party based ambience to the one in Connaught Place, the one here had the best of both worlds. A delicate balance between the hip and the heavenly. THE AMBIENCE As soon as you enter the commercial complex at Sector 29, you're in complete awe of the establishments in the vicinity. From My Bar HQ, Molecule Air Bar to the towering Ministry of Beer. There is an aura abou
