BAKING BAD, GREATER KAILASH In my honest opinion, Dominos and Pizza Hut have spoilt our appetite for pizzas. Over the years we've only known what hand-tossed pan pizzas taste like and quite honestly, we love those thick crusts! Afterall, pait toh bharega. But one outlet in Greater Kailash is changing the thin crust game with it's uber cool gourmet pizzas and pastas. They have some brilliant options in Pizzas, Pastas, Sides, Shakes and Desserts! This beautiful Hot Spot Vegetarian Pizza  is topped with button mushroom, jalapeno, pimento peppers, roasted garlic, fried basil and is topped with parmesan and ricotta! This SPICY pizza has a beautiful spread of HOT sauce as well. Bliss! Another dish that I loved was the Baked Penne with Spinach and Mushroom. This cheesy, oven baked pasta was a bombshell of flavours and rich creaminess.The spinach and mushroom were hearty and filling. And to add to all that rich, creamy and cheesy experiences, the Gar...

THE BIRYANI PROJECT, GREATER KAILASH 2 Biryani is something that us Delhites have taken to heart. All of us have our own favorite places that serve biryani. And with more than a handful of new joints opening up everywhere, it's hard to pick your one true savior. Whenever you're craving for that handi full of rice, loaded with fried onions and doused with chunks of chicken on the bone, you end up getting it from your nearest "Moradabadi Biryani" store that has a neon sign and just a pateela full of regular old rice and some chicken. They measure it out and serve it to you in disposable plates. Why settle for anything less than a methodically prepared, systematically generated, meticulously synthesized handi of Biryani? The Biryani Project  in Greater Kailash is a result of years of trying and testing and tasting! The people behind this venture have been all across India, trying out various Biryanis the country has to offer. And no no no, they don't ju...

STARVIN MARVIN, OKHLA PHASE 1 Just when you were tucked in nicely in bed at night, thinking to yourself that you had the perfect day, it strikes you that your life isn't as perfect as you thought it was. Just then you realise that you haven't had the amazing food from Starvin Marvin yet. Probably the best night delivery brands have now started delivering in the day too. And after trying food from their Greater Kailash outlet, I decided to order some when I was in Jasola from their outlet there. And boy, I wasn't disappointed. The menu of Starvin Marvin is vast. As vast and varied as space itself, given that this is their gimmick. You get Pizzas, Starters, Burgers, Pastas, Mains, Sandwiches, Desserts and Drinks. Everything inspired from outer space. Enough to blow your mind out of this world. I went on ahead and ordered my favourite Chicken Ala Kiev first. A massive stuffed breast of chicken served over a nice and comfortable bed of Spaghetti Carbonara wit...

The Spartans This new outlet in Greater Kailash promises to bring you the taste of New York to your South Delhi plates. It serves some amazing NYC Style Street food that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner.  The Eaters, which has opened recently, has a very fresh vibe to it. The ambience is made natural and vibrant by the use of foliage and wood. It gives the place a very inviting aura. The service is extremely friendly and the chefs are more than happy to let you videotape them working! The place serves some kickass fries, probably the best French Fries I've EVER HAD! They serve it with their sandwiches, their loafs, hot dogs and as a standalone dish. The fries are topped with liquid cheese and sauces and are as hot as ever. I could drown in these fries and die a happy man. There's other items on the menu too! The drinks are quirky and very unique. The names of the dishes are trendy and would make you want to order everything just to try it! Take a look at...

GRAY GLOBAL KITCHEN AND BAR, GREATER KAILASH Greater Kailash 1 is flooded with high end restaurants and bars. New, concept based restaurants are popping up every now and then, trying to make their mark on the famous market. However, looks aren't the only thing that matter to customers when it comes to dining. It is the overall experience that takes you to the next level. At Gray Global Kitchen and Bar, they've perfected the art of fine dining. The place is a beautiful fusion of eating with your eyes first and then your mouth. THE AMBIENCE Gray is located on the second floor and is easy to spot with its sharp, edgy signboard. When we approached the place, we were greated very heartily by Siddharth, who guided us to the second floor with the warmest of smiles. His handshake was very firm too. (Maybe he's been single too long, I'm nobody to judge. He was a good lad) On entering the restaurant, we were blown away by the sheer class of i...

KARMA KISMET, GREATER KAILASH 2 GK2 offers a lot of beautiful places to dine in. With the food scene booming in the market over the last couple of years, restaurants really have to compete to find their place. But a pioneer in the fine-dining field is the beautiful Karma Kismet. It is a treat for, both, the eyes and the mouth. Serving some innovative dishes, they offer a new perspective to Awadhi food.  THE AMBIENCE The place itself is fit for a king. Beautiful dark, mustard interiors. LEDs running across the walls and just the perfect ethnic instrumentals. You know you're in for a treat as soon as you step into their palace of extravagant dreams and gastronomic adventures! But before the fight for the palace begins, you take your seat on one of their velvety, soft-to-touch sofas that are MASSIVE. I thought it was meant to seat 3 people, BUT NO. I WAS WRONG.
