TABLE TALK
"Truly Surreal"
- Philippa Kaye, memsahibinindia.com
The fine dining venue, hosted by the charming Muzaffar and Meera Ali, offered an epicurean feast featuring the best dishes from the Royal House of Awadh, renowned for its succulence and lavish ingredients. The chandeliers, crystal glasses, and crisp, white starched tablecloths added to the royal ambiance. I surrendered to the experience and enjoyed every delicious mouthful...
"A Different World"
- Sundeep, delhi-fun-dos.com
This is not really a restaurant that you walk into at will. It is more like a culinary art gallery. Or travel to another space in another era. The experience takes time and do be relaxed when you come here. And also, do have a table reservation before coming.
"Our Taste Buds on a Heavenly Journey"
- Bedabrata, delhi-fun-dos.com
A host of aromatic spices had been infused in each dish and one could see these items would have taken hours of prep time. We almost hit the ceiling on Chaap Sultani. The melt in the mouth mutton chops were served on cumin infused mashed potatoes and the combination sent our taste buds on a heavenly journey.
