We tried few things from the menu starting with the mocktails

Virgin Double Lime

Virgin Double Lime


Virgin Double Lime – The perfect blend of litchi, lemongrass and lime. Simplicity does the magic when it comes to food and drinks. Every sip was filled with freshness of lime and litchi. A perfect start to the eve.


Orange Slush – Perfect for a hot day. Such a beautiful drink. Strong orange flavor with mild sweetness gets you refreshed.

Appetizers –

Citrus Bhel

Citrus Bhel


Citrus Bhel – Expect the unexpected at this place. When street side food is served in a style it gets gastronomical. The spicy, tangy bhel with a twist of citrus by the addition of orange and pomegranate seeds. Garnished with sour cream quenelle and balsamic vinegar pearls.

Spicy Canton Broth

Spicy Canton Broth


Spicy Canton Broth – For those who like spicy, sour and tangy flavor must try this. Steamed veg dumplings with other veggies like mushrooms and broccoli, topped with glass noodles served with broth flavored with Chinese greens, ginger and soy. The spiciness of chili, sourness of vinegar with the kick of ginger and bite of dumplings gave this broth a burst of flavor in each sip.

Broccoli Galauti

Broccoli Galauti


Broccoli Galauti – Even the vegetarians can enjoy the “Galauti”. The melt in mouth broccoli galauti was topped with saffron foam to give it the authentic feel. The texture was perfect though I felt the after taste was slightly bitter. Can give this dish a skip.

Sichuan Pepper & Vegetable Dimsum

Sichuan Pepper & Vegetable Dimsum


Sichuan Pepper & Vegetable Dimsum – My love for dimsums is never ending and I love the one I had here. Dough mixed with beetroot hence giving slightly sweet flavor to the covering. The filling was prepared with mixed vegetables and Sichuan peppers. The sweetness of covering, creamy yet chunky vegetables with crackling spicy Sichuan pepper made a perfect bite. Served along with couple of dips, one tomato based and the other one scallion in sesame oil. The dips added the extra flavor to the dimsums.

Cutting Chai


Cutting Chai Icecream – Eating chai is more fun than drinking it. Trust me when I say this. This dessert is for every chai lover. There could be no better fusion than this.

Hazelnut & salted Caramel Molleaux

Hazelnut & salted Caramel Molleaux

Hazelnut & salted Caramel Molleaux – What a beautiful dessert it was. I was awestruck with the combination of colors. Dark brown three-layered chocolate dome on a burnt sugar crisps and salted caramel sauce surrounded by red grenadine pearls. Garnished with gold vark. Super delicious and beautiful.
