Tales of travels..food and many more!

For someone who loves food, the idea of meeting a gang of foodies was nothing less than thrilling. Thanks to Monica Banerjee for organizing a  Zomato meet on 8th October at Bombay Duck, Hyderabad. We were welcomed by three Zomians at the venue and they looked in absolute mood for a foodie evening. Place looked nice with more of contemporary modern feel. We were seated next to bar area..which looked vibrant with live mocktails been made. Though we were sitting inside, place has a good outside seating area as well , where in artificial waterfalls and greenery looked pleasing. After exchanging pleasantries we were served delightful Watermelon mocktail..which was beautifully done with a piece of watermelon hung at the glass and glass being decked up with ice..and drink was flavorful. I also tried Virgin Mojito..which was definitely steal of the show..at least in mocktails..and  has to be tried. Besides the look  which of course was very nice..it tasted equally amazing......

  I was craving of having ice cream...it was Sunday evening...we were just not in mood of going out and having it...so...thought to order something online. Here we came across this ice cream parlour which had like really good reviews...ice creams were not very expensive...as per other popular ice cream parlours...and on top of it..we got a good discount... So...it was a win win deal. The best part is the taste of ice cream...be strawberry or chocolate..it has most authentic flavor...it tastes just awesome.  Chik chocolate was dark chocolate ice cream in waffle cone with pieces of cadbury chocolate on it and a chocolate stick. It tasted super yum. Snazzy Strawberry was yumlicious too...it was dressed beautifully with anar and pieces of strawberry.  Since we had ordered online, there is nothing much to talk about the ambiance of the place. It seems to be a place we missed out in past.. But would definitely love to try some more of its ice creams.

We visited this place as a family for my sister's birthday celebration. It was very well planned as I had zomatoed number of places and finalized this one...on the basis of its positive reviews read here. As soon as we entered... It was a pleasant surprise for all of us...as ambiance was beyond expectation. Besides being Saturday, we easily got a very good table to enjoy our time. Ambiance- As the name says..it is a jungle themed restaurant with huge trees and wild animals placed around and complete darkness. It's one thing which is different and yet very interesting. The wait staff is dressed as forest officers, there is background noise of animals, greenery is delightful. Food- We had ordered Crisp corn as starters , and three different mocktails along side.  Crisp corn was usual one..not too good...similarly.. Out of three drinks we ordered we loved Mix of Anu. It was very flavorful which I felt was a must try. Cranberry delight, ordered by us was okish...as it was more of ...

Kailash Parbat is a famous restaurant of Delhi.It is mainly popular for its North Indian food. In Hyderabad ,they have a foodcounter in food court of Forum Mall. It is definitely meant to be tried once as they serve mouthwatering and delicious food. We have been there couple of times and cannot resist to order their Chole Bhature, Pav Bhaji , Vada Pav. Their Chat items are again yumlicious and is recommneded to be tried. The food they offer is reasonably priced..nor very expensive neither very economical.

This is a restaurant which has its chain outlets selling Vada Pav around the country. They offer different kinds of Vada Pav such as classic , maharaja, mix Veg and few more to name. Since this oultlet is very nearby my house, we happen to eat their Vada Pav once in a week. My favourite is Classic Vada Pav as I find its taste very close to original Vada Pav. They serve it with lahsun chutney and fried green chilli. Classic Vada Pav is a little spicy but real yum. Maharaja Vada Pav is again savour, served with huge Vada and is not very spicy. Sabudana Vada is also tasty and can be tried. They have some offers sometimes where in they offer free coldrink in combo pack. The only flaw of this outlet near Shilpa Park is the staff is lethargic..they are least interested in home delivery and in fact take all the time in the world to even hand over Vada Pav in their shop. The prices of the food items they offer are very reasonable. My rating is entirely based on the taste of the Vada Pav..as i...

This is one of the best bakeries I have come across in my life so far...they serve amazingly tasty cakes and cookies. I happen to have tried their cup cakes and cakes....and cannot decide..which is the best.. Taste is truly outstanding..dressing is done brilliantly..and it has that particular factor...which makes you eat more and more of it. The service is good and well on time.. The pricing seems to be little higher..but I guess such indulgences are acceptable on occasions. This is a perfect place for cakes,pastries and cookies as you can try out anything.. And would fall in love with it. Just a few suggestions:- 1. I would love it more if they happen to start sugar free cookies and cakes someday. 2. The staff can be more polite and sweet to customers.. as it is one of the best bakeries of Hyderabad..its their responsibility to smile , look happy and be nice to customers as their cakes do. 3. They should also keep some ready to sell cakes and pastries for craving times or short notic...
