beverages. I chose the Love in a berry [which was a mixed berry drink-
made with fresh fruits and concentrate]. It was quite good, but when
Doc Waz ordered the Lime & Chilly cooler, i knew i should have ordered
that. Packed with lime and chilly flavor, it sure had a punch and kick
to it.
After a round of ooh, aah, yummy, interesting and other possible comments, we were once again lost in the menu cards looking for an interesting main course to order. Playing it safe, we asked Kavitha to order [a mix of veg & non veg of course].. What arrived was quite a mix of flavors and delights.
There was Magic mushroom pasta
[ oh well, stop dreaming, none of us were in a trance or hallucinating,
these were just regular mushrooms parading as magic mushrooms], Spaghetti with chicken in red sauce, Paneer Brazilia sizzler[Veg sizzler], Minced chicken bolognaise [chicken sizzler]….
There was also the Farm fresh fold over [Fruitlette-> a fruit platter with Quesadilla
filled with vegetables & cheese –> there were giant slices of
watermelon, kiwi, apples, couple of strawberries & grapes lined
along the plate]. and Grilled fish fillet [Grilled Bass fish served with rice]
Phew.. we were stuffed… all of us made sure to click shots of all the dishes and taste them, atleast a nibble to satiate our curiosity... Between conversations around our lives, work and food, nearly 2 hours flew by. We were looking forward to digging into some desserts before calling it a night.
I ordered the Original Sin [
pancakes with apples, raisins flavoured with nutella and served with a
side of fruits though i asked to leave the fruits out since we already
had a fruit platter on the table half eaten]… The pancakes were too leathery and it had a strong Elaichi flavrou…Made me wonder if i had maybe committed a sin…
The other crepe based dessert was the Simple Simean [think i got the name right, crepes with Banana and Nutella with a fruit platter].
Some of the other desserts ordered were Fried chocolate balls[ they were like little bondas with gooey chocolate inside], Simply chocolate [a tall glass with Chocolate biscuits topped with ice cream and melted chocolate- mars or 5 Star] and then the Strawberry strawberry glory [Strawberry shortcake served with fresh cream topped with fresh strawberries].
What an evening it was.. The conversation continued even as we walked out, and as the night wore on. Off i went in search of an auto with the sweetness of nutella lingering in my mind…
