Ardor 2.1, Connaught Place

NAWABI FOOD FESTIVAL 

Ambience!

You must have been to Ardor 2.1 for partying or a get together on their 2nd floor, but they also have Fine dining at their 1st floor. This time it was the Nawabi Food Festival that attracted me to the outlet. The décor tries to match with the Nawabi look. I personally liked the face swiping on the posters (specially Mr. Bean). It's a well spread area with seating enough for 30-35 people.


Seating!
Dabang Posters!
 
  • FOOD
One thing common in their Menu was that every item had a Nawabi prefix to it.
 
DRINKS 
  • Nawabi Thandai - Welcome drink served. Loved the Thandai (with Rose petal placed on it).
Thandai!
  • Nawabi Aam Panna - Aam Panna wasn't tangy enough. Maybe it was because of the strawberries added to it.
Aam Panna!
  • Seb Santra Usba Khass - This was one Hatke drink which I liked. Tanginess, sweetness, thickness - everything could be felt in this one.
Very khass Drink!
  • Paan Gul - It's a no brain teaser that it had Paan flavor to it. Served with Ice cream on top, it was rather drinkable. But not the best!
Paan wali Drink!
 
STARTERS
  • Mutton Galouti Kebab - Looked very attractive, but turned out to be a disappointment. Tasted just average. Not the softest Galouti kebab I've had.
Not so soft Galouti Kebab!
  • Paneer Tikka Tilla - The usual soft paneer tikka. No description required.
Paneer Tikka!
  • Tandoori Mushroom - Stuffed mushrooms but a little hard to chew. Didn't like it at all.
Tandoori Mushrooms!
 
MAIN COURSE
  • Dal Tadka - My only question, who adds dry fruits and pomegranate to Dal? I didn't like the presentation or the taste. Personally, I'll not recommend this to anyone.
 
Weird Dal!
  • Dal Shahi Makhmali - My favorite Dal Makhni was still better than the former one. Thick gravy is all I need in a Dal Makhni and I got that. 
 Dal Makhni!
  • Nargisi Kofta - Fried Eggs prepared with spicy gravy. Liked this dish.
Nargisi Kofta!
  • Tawa Subzi Takatak - Kind of a Veg Korma - all sorts of veggies with dry fruits used as a dressing. Tasted quite average.
Sabzi Takatak!
  • Nawabi Sabz Pulao - Again, dry fruits all over the Pulao. I guess Nawabs liked dry fruits in every dish. Not recommended! 
 
 
DESSERT
 
After all the Nawabi food, I could manage only one dessert.
  • Shahi Tukda - Thankfully, it tasted amazing. Shahi tukda never lets you down.
Shahi Tukda!
  • SERVICE
The staff was very polite and the service was rather quick. Preparing our meal on time and serving it nicely. Satisfied with the Service team.
 
  • OVERALL
A Nawabi Food Festival where you get plenty of variety in their menu. But choose your options wisely is all I can say!

An Adventure of a Lifetime Do you feel too lazy to go to the mountains to do Rock Climbing? Or travel far to do Zip Lining? Or Sky Cycling? (Wait WHAT?) Well, I have found the perfect Treasure zone for all the Adventure seekers. And that too, all the awesome activities under one roof. Amazing, isn't it? Welcome! It's time to take a break from your hectic life, long working hours and recharge yourself with some adventure and fun filled activities and also get in touch with your Daredevil side. I visited this Adventure park recently. Set up in  Sector 68, Gurgaon, it can be easily spotted on the main road. You enter the place and you see someone riding a bicycle on a rope on your left. And after a minute you see another one doing zip lining. That was the moment when you realize that your destination has arrived. It's huge setup with a covered shed in the middle to rejuvenate yourself. And it's surrounded by various activities to get your

The Weekend Wine & More, Noida

  Weekend or not, Date is Sorted! Are you a fan of luxurious interiors, perfect lighting and fine dining? Then you can continue reading this blog. If not, still give it a read and let me know if you were convinced later. Garden Galleria Mall is loaded with Clubs, lounge, Microbreweries, restaurants and what not. But the highlight for this outlet is their visually appealing interiors and the fine dining touch is top notch.  The place is so huge that it will take you a couple of minutes to select where you want to sit (too many options to choose from). The music and live DJ complemented it as well. They have super cozy seating in one corner for your date and long sofas and comfortable chairs for partying with friends or family. The pictures will do more justice to it (see below).  Now that I've shared how much i loved the ambience, let's hope on to the drinks and food section. Drinks - The Mocktails menu was quite small so i requested the bartender to make us one of their inhous

Welcome to the Frenzone!

FRENZONE (IT'S A TRAP) FrenZoneD! Another café setup just at the start of the famous "Satya Niketan" lane. The name of the outlet can repel you but the ambience wouldn't. It's a small café which can cater to around 30-35 people at a time. A well lit place with paintings on the right side and beautiful design on the left. They also have a projector screen for your entertainment while you are waiting for your friends (I did).  DRINKS We started it off with Shakes and Mock tails: Red Velvet Cake Shake - Thick Shake with Red velvet crumbs coming in your mouth. A delight for Red Velvet lovers. Red Velvet Virgin Mojito - Very few manage to mess this basic drink. Thankfully, they didn't. The taste was strong with fresh leaves and lemon on the top. Mr. Virgin Mojito! Italian Smooch - The name was exciting (Not for friend zoned people). This had ginger syrup mixed with Coke and Lemon. I liked it. Ms. Italian Smoo
