Dehlvi cuisine @ The Oberoi, Gurgaon … celebrating the flavours of India
Dehlvi cuisine {pertaining to the Delhi region} as the name suggests is an evolutionary melange of the cuisine of the Mughals, Rajputs, Punjabis, Marwaris, Kayasthas and Vaishyas blended by the centuries. As the British empire moved it's capital from Bengal to Delhi, it brought with it a potpourri of folk to run the administration. As Delhi became the hub of political, social and commercial activity, people from different communities found livelihood here. With them came interesting and unique culinary influences.

Purani Dilli’s Al-Karam Kebab House … from the young and foodish!
if you are longing for some authentic Purani Dilli grub, would rather just hop across to somewhere closer than a ride into Old Delhi, this is the place to head for. Priced very reasonably {where else would you find a moorish generously stuffed keema naan for Rs 50}, Purani Dilli's Al-Karam Kebab House offers you good great value for money, and delivers authentic taste too!

A food event and a contest win... The Philips AirFryer - a review. It's simple to operate, has an alarm which is a great built in feature, kid friendly, really easy to clean up, designed beautifully with smooth knobs and the mesh ‘drawer’, and a retractable wire {like the Thermomix}.

Bloggers Table | The Leela, Gurgaon … excellence in everything they do!
It’s one thing having a philosophy of “Atithi devo Bhava – Our Guest is God”, and it’s another thing delivering it in every sense of the word. The Leela did just that! Hospitality and culture so seamless that in many ways it felt surreal! The Leela Kempinski Gurgaon was presented the Best 5-Star Deluxe Hotel (India) award, March 2011 & 2012. Zanotta was Times Food Award’s pick for Best Italian in the Region in both 2010 and 2011.

Bloggers Table | Café G, Crowne Plaza, Gurgaon – real food, great ambience!
“One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.” Virginia Woolf Time for the Bloggers Table and this time it was a cozy little do at the beautiful Café G at the Crown Plaza Gurgaon. The moment I entered I was hit by a feeling of déjà vu. Such a familiar, almost Ottolenghi like atmosphere, quiet, open, airy. This was one culinary experience worth the visit! Live cooking, real food, authentic flavours … and ‘silently attentive’ excellent staff!The Café offers fine dining with a daily buffet that changes regularly. The interiors are aesthetically done, wood and beige neutrals, nice lighting and a wonderful ambiance. A salad bar…
