Fashion Alert: Peplum Everything to make it trendier


Peplum is basically a short gathered or pleated strip of fabric attached at the waist of a woman's jacket, dress or blouse to create a hanging frill or flounceThe Peplum was popularized by Dior in the 1940’s with jackets that were nipped at the waist with Peplums at the hip to create an hourglass shape. 
It was first worn by Elizabeth II. 


The "Peplum" style was introduced to give an illusion of a small waist and a broader pelvic region, and has come into vogue in the past few years. Specially because girls are super skinny these days.
So yes, we have a lot of divas, from Hollywood and Bollywood who have experimented with this style time and again. More often than not, they have all looked stunning.


We love how our Bollywood babes have worn this extremely delicate fashion style.

From L-R:

Bipasha Basu looks great in this knee length, modern, Peplum silhouette dress. Perfect with a fitted bottom. The Peplum extends diagonally to one of her shoulders to give a ruffled look. Loved it.

Parineeti Chopra wears a knee length, bright pink skirt with a Peplum waist. It is a simple yet chick look. She paired it with a white chiffon blouse and nude heels. The bottom of the skirt should have been a bit more fitted though, to give her a sleeker look. 

Deepika looks ravishing as always, in her Blood Red Peplum gown, with a mermaid silhouette at the bottom.  The almost bare back of the gown and the gown's color adds to its sex appeal and glam quotient.

Frieda Pinto wears a green Peplum gown from Atelier Versace for Cannes 2012 Red Carpet. The gown is sleek till the thighs and then introduces a slit. The Peplum in her gown is one sided, which adds to the candidness of the outfit. It looks very sophisticated and apt for the event.

But why just experiment with the Western attire when the same can be tried in the traditional way. We have TV Serial actress Aashka wearing a Saree with a Peplum detailed blouse. The pallu creatively slides inside this Peplum blouse and goes over her shoulder. A thumbs up to her for trying this out.

So here's how you can add Peplum to your wardrobe, and be the trendsetting one around:




  1. A Black fitted skirt with sides having Peplum detail (Forever21)
  2. A White Peplum dress with the Peplum silhouette having black mesh detailing on the edges (ASOS)
  3. A Black Peplum top with an embellished shoulder. (ASOS)
  4. A Black Full Sequin Peplum top with side cutouts. (Forever21)
  5. Why not go Peplum in winters? With this Black Peplum jacket with silver zips detail. (Zara) 
Now If you are not sure as to how the look is going to compliment your body type, don't stress!
There is something you can try on yourself, with any fitted clothes you have, just to make a few appearances and see how this design suits you.



Now these are Peplum belts, that can make any regular outfit of yours, more chick and glam!
(Both : ASOS).

So get set girls. Give the illusion and create some more magic.

Keya
Vasant Kunj
New Delhi


Keya was earlier not known much as Keya but the Bar portion of Kaioosh. Both the places are owned by Chef Maarut Sikka. A culinary genius in Indian Food specially.. 
So we went to Keya on a saturday night and the place was very crowded. And by that I mean there was no place to even walk after 10 pm. 
Luckily we had a table booked for a group of 12 people and we enjoyed the luxury of being seated. 
The music was non commercial, more of trance, techno and dubstep. It is the ambiance of the place that makes me so fond of it. It is classy. The bar counters and table tops are made of translucent stone. The place looked exquisite. It has an open area too, with a seating area as well. The place gets brownie points for ambiance and style.
Now for the food. We ordered cheese and jalapeno poppers, pepperoni pizza and chilly paneer for starters. It was undoubtedly extremely well prepared, and despite the crowd, the quality of food did not suffer one bit. 
The pepperoni pizza had an appearance one would die for. The chilly paneer was yum and scrumptious. (The dish is not a part of their menu, but when we asked for it they were more than okay to serve it.) 
The jalepeno poppers oozed out cheese once we bit into them. So yum food !! 
For main course we ordered penne in white sauce with mushrooms and claypot rice with vegetables in blackbean sauce. The dish was served in a ceramic pot. I was impressed by the way it was served, steaming hot. The black bean sauce had a very balanced taste with a pronounced flavour of blackbean. The pasta was slightly bland e though, lacked seasoning I guess. But once we added a little salt, it turned out to be delicious.

Dunkin Donuts

Rajouri Garden

New Delhi


Dunkin Donuts Rajouri Garden is strategically located on the Rajouri Garden Main road, right next to Pind Balluchi. We were 2 people who went just to try out the new very popular, "Tough Guy Burger". So it was around 1 30 in the afternoon that we reached there and the place was quite empty. Maybe just two couples were seated before us. When we went to place our order, there was somebody else placing the order before us. By the time it was our turn , their billing machine stopped working. Now only the heavens know why that happened. However the person at the billing counter, took our order down on a piece of paper and assured us that he would get our food prepared. however he refused to take any payment since the bill was not computerized. 

We were comfortably seated and made plans as to which donuts we would be ordering post our "Tough Guys". Time passed and we realised that the billing machine had started functioning. Maybe 10 mins after we placed our order. We were however assured that the food is being prepared, so we waited for our order to arrive. Around 15 minutes passed, and we realised that people who placed orders after us, were being served their burgers immediately. A little dissappointed, we went to the counter and told them to kindly make it quick. Another 15 minutes passed and thats when the man called us to the counter. We finally took a sigh of relief hoping our food would be there now. But, HE JUST CALLED US FOR THE PAYMENT. 

This was what actually happened:

When the machine stopped working, the guy could not take any payment from us, which is why he did not get our food prepared. Soon when the place started becoming full he forgot about this incident. It was only when we reminded him of our presence that he waited for the current queue to settle down, and called us for the payment. It was then, that he started getting our food prepared.

WE GOT TWO TOUGH GUY BURGERS IN 40 MINUTES.

Concept of fast food: Down the drain!

Now for the food, 
Let me tell you that I tried their vegetarian burger. Its quite big and huge, its messy to eat, but it is not juicy or flavorful. 
The only flavor that I could experience was that of a very pungent mustard and just that! 
This is since they did not have any other other dressing in the burger to cut through the taste of the pungent mustard.
The bun in which it was made was quite dry and rough to eat.
However if somebody is very fond of mustard, I'm sure they would love it, but this was not what I wanted to eat after 40 minutes for sure.

Fashion Alert: The Royal Gems of India
Traditional Indian Jewelry adding the WOW to Western attire.




Whoever thought only diamonds can embrace western outfits to make them look elegant and classy, was wrong. And whoever thought that the royal, traditional and ethnic jewelry of Indian heritage can only be adorned by brides or ladies wearing lehengas and sarees, was just very heavily mistaken. 

Indian traditional jewelry is a state of the art creation that can be used to not just accessorize but enhance the glory of any western outfit,by a lady of any age. They are indeed timeless.

From top left in the image we see Deepika Padukone, who does this brilliantly. She wears a not so blingy white top and a black Alexander McQueen Skirt for Big Star Entertainment Awards. She has on herself a big enough Kundan necklace that beautifully compliments her attire. 
But this is not the only time Deepika has teamed up her dresses and gowns with almost bridal jewelry (See 5 and 7) where she teams Kundan necklaces with an LBD and a Black gown respectively.

We then have our very own Kareena Kapoor in a bright green maxi dress which she chose to wear with a Kundan necklace, lined with gold pearls.The wife of the Nawab is sure to carry on the legacy.

Sonam Kapoor can never lag behind when it comes to experimenting, and yes she was one of the first Bollywood Divas who dared to try out this combination. (See 3 and 4). In one she wears a Kundan neck piece lined with rubies to go with a white bodycon dress, while in the other she wears a beautiful Kundan Jewelry piece which had two components: A Kundan choker and a double Kundan string, with an abstract white gown.Yes, the picture looks ancient because this was way back in IIFA Awards 2009.

Not only are the young ones grabbing the new trend of the season, so is the timeless beauty of Bollywood, Sridevi (See 6). She combines a Red gown with a Kundan Necklace just to become the most graceful person at the event.

However, what we can conclude out of these are a few cautions that should be taken before trying out this combo:


  1. Tie Up your hair : You don't want messy hair getting entangled in those state of the art necklaces. You also don't want the attention to go anywhere away from the highlight of your look, i.e. your jewelry.
  2. Minimal Make Up: Wearing a big piece of jewelry means that you have your attention and bling meter on! Don't overdo it to look like you're straight out of a big fat Indian wedding.
  3. Understated Clothes: You wear this jewelry to add the class, not cluster your look. So make sure the sparkle and bling in your ensemble don't conflict with the 'wow-ness' it has to offer.


Fashion Alert: Next Big Thing 2014
Metallic Fabrics!


What if you want to "Shine bright like a diamond", at an event where 'Class' should be your middle name? What if you want the bling but not so much so that it hurts the eyes of people who see you? What if you want to stand out but don't want your outfit to interfere with your personality? 

So for all those evenings that need the sparkle and the shine, metallic fabrics are just what you need. Weather it is a dress, or a gown or even ethnic Indian wear. You'll be good to go. 

In the image (l-r) we see Deepika killing it in her Gucci Metallic Gown in her 2013 New Year Bash. While Deepika is one of the first Bollywood divas to make this statement, the trend has stayed a while in Hollywood. 
We see Jessica Alba in her Gold metallic Micheal Korrs gown, with side swept hair and full red lips. She looked drop dead gorgeous. 
When we talk of trends, Angelina Jolie can never stay far behind. She wore a Black Jenny Packham metallic gown, way back in 2012 at the SAG awards. She kept it classic and extremely elegant, with earrings and a Louis Vuitton Bag. She's the diva.

But why just talk about western attire, when the same can be worn exceedingly well in an Indian outfit, Just like Aditi Rao gambled by wearing a greyish silver Gaurav Gupta metallic Saree. However she managed to do justice to it. She looked pretty, with minimal make up and side curls.

So this is how you can incorporate the style in your wardrobe and be dressed so well that you stress the others , be it a night out, evenings, dinners and special dates. *wink wink*

Raasta

Hauz Khaz Village

New Delhi


We went to Raasta as was recommended by a good friend, to go and chill with friends. 
The place is in the new Hub of Delhi, i.e. Hauz Khaz Village. When we went there, it took us a while to locate the place correctly, due to heavy construction work happening outside the place, however once we entered, the place seemed nice and lively. It had two kinds of seating areas, one which was completely enclosed and non smoking and one which had some fresh air ventilation and was smoking. The decor was nice and pep. The place is more of the "friends chilling" place rather than the "couples romance" place.
We were very impressed by the service and their patience because we took rather long to order. We ordered a couple of wines, a chilly potato, a chilly chicken and a grilled cottage cheese burger.
The chilly potatoes were nice and yummy. I loved the way it was served in a bowl made out of fried noodles. Their seasoning was good, with just a tinge of sweetness and reasonable chilly to it.
The chicken was nice, juicy and soft inside, and crisp on the outside. Perfectly fried chicken. 
However we were slightly let down by the grilled cottage cheese burger, since it was apparently a hot selling item from their menu, but it was rather bland and tasteless once we ate it. I liked their portions though, which made the place reasonable to the pocket.
One more thing that let me down about the place was that their smoking area was not air conditioned well. It could not keep up with Delhi's heat. 

Here goes the score:

Drool Fresh Bake House Cafe

Dwarka, New Delhi


I had read about this place on zomato itself, and since its very close to where I go, I decided to definitely try it out. Dwarka does not otherwise offer very good places to sit and eat good food apart from the usual Dominos and Mc Donalds .
I would give the place a 5/5 for location, its almost inside the sector 13 metro station. 
So very conviniently located for anyone who is from dwarka and anyone from outside. 
The place is pleasantly decorated, wuth very spacious seating arrangement, a big bakery show window and an impressive display of freshly baked breads. They also had a kitchen in one corner which was separated from the sitting area with a glass wall. This ensured that the food veing prepared was hygenic. My friend and I first ordered a Penne in Mixed Sauce with Mushrooms and grilled peppers. Also a straeberry shake. 
The pasta was nice and creamy, plenty of veggies and generously herbed. However it lacked salt, which when added made the pasta perfect. It was served hot. Definitely good for the place and the price. 
We then ordered a tiramisu and a blueberry mousse.





The tiramisu was rich creamy and the sponge inside was moist with a strong coffee flavor. My definition of a good tiramisu. The blueberry mousse was also very nice and tasty. Generous amount of blueberry sauce in two layers, and whipped cream flavoured with blueberry in another two layers, with a dash of sponge cake. 
It was pretty indulgent. 
The one thing i did not appreciate was that they boasted of cheesecakes in their menu, but didnt have it ready.
However the place is very good for a quite tea or coffee with some good food to go along with it.

Idli King

Satyaniketan, New Delhi


I had heard about Idli King from a friend of mine. To be honest I do not really love South Indian food, but I definitely wanted to try the place out simply because I had heard so much about it.
This place is located bang opposite Venkateshwara college building, in Satyaniketan, popularly known as South Campus.
The place is made up in two floors, with only one floor that offers a seating arrangement.
We ordered a Nimbu Pani each, a lemon rice, a mysore plain dosa and a masala idli.
The first thing I loved about the place was that they keep De Pauls packaged Cold Coffee and Nimbu Pani, which really dont need an introduction for any Delhite.
The Mysore plain dosa was nice and crisp, very thin and cooked to perfection.Served with deliciously spiced sambar, coconut chutney and tomato chutney.
Their tomato chutney was slightly different and had a creamy touch to it, but was yummy no doubt.
The coconut chutney was also good, however for me, the mysore part of the dosa was the star!
The dosa had an inner layering of mysore masala, which is basically very spiced up coconut chutney spread evenly on the inner layer of the dosa. The chutney was so nicely spread and spiced that I just did not need any other accompaniment.
The Masala Idli was also very scrumptious. It was a normal idli sprinkled with a powdered masala made out of south Indian spices and gun powder. The Idli when dipped in the hot sambar, was just heavenly.
The lemon rice was very nice, by which I mean that the quality of rice used was up to the mark, their was sufficient sourness to it and when I mixed the tomato chutney into it, it felt as if I am walking in the streets of Southern India.
I would also want to mention that this place is very clean and hygienic, which a place so easy on the pocket generally is not.
The lamps on top of each table are in the shape of Idli holders and the ceiling is covered with the traditional Indian "chik"

All this over here costed us Rs 250 only.
I was very happy to eat good food at such a decently priced place.

Kudos Guys.

Drool Kitchen

Dwarka

Me and my friend found this place on zomato itself when we were in dire need for a good place in Dwarka, which is a little difficult to find, apart from the usual Mc Donalds and KFC kind of places.
So we went to this place, and it is very conveniently located, which is right under a metro station and very strategically too, because its right opposite the Dwarka court, where people definitely go but don't find any worthwhile place around.
The ambiance is nice and comfortable, more like fine-dine I would say. With good china, an elegant bar at one side, and interesting seating.
Apart from the normal couch and chair sitting, they have these few round tables enclosed in a wooden cage kind of thing, which makes these tables, meant for big groups a little secluded from the otherwise spacious place.
Their menu is pretty elaborate, in the sense it covers almost all major cuisines ranging from Thai to Chinese, Indian and Italian. Little bit of everything they have.
We ordered a Chilly paneer dry and Veg Pan Fried Noodles with Hunan sauce . Since we were only two people we didnt order much, plus we just wanted to try these things out first.
The chilly paneer was nice and spicy, the Paneer was very good quality and it came with a generous amount of spring onions and bell peppers of different colors. Indicated a good quality of food.
We were skeptical about the Noodles, but to our surprise it was just delicious. The serving was big enough, the noodles were pan fried well, with a few strands crisp and few soft. The sauce had a chilly bean flavor to it, as promised and was LOADED with vegetables like babycorn, mushroom, bell pepper and chinese greens. 
We were stuffed but still couldnt get enough of the place, so ordered their chocolate mud cake.
The dessert was served beautifully, with mud cake in the centre, nice, warm .gooey and fudgey and vanilla ice cream on two sides. 
Was made well, exceeding expectations.
Will visit again for sure and hopefully very soon

Cafe Delhi Heights

Ambience Mall, Gurgaon

This place was suggested to me by a lot of friends who simply love the food here. So one day a friend and me, decided to try the place out. 
The place is set on the 3rd floor of Ambiance Mall Gurgaon, and has a very open feel to it, despite being in a mall. The glass panes let a lot of sun in, and the scattered seating was giving a nice happh feel. 
We did not order too much food, since their servings were huge! So we ordered one khao suey and one mixed sauce pasta with mushrooms and sundried tomatoes. 
The khao suey was served in a huge bowl, the serving was very generous and tasted good too. However I prefer the components of khao suey served separately. Like the peanuts, fried onions etc. 
The pasta was made to perfection.. just the way I had asked it to be. Creamy, with lots of herbs and ample sundried tomatoes and mushrooms. 
We were more than stuffed. So decided to let the rest be for some other time.

K3, JW Marriott Hotel
Aerocity, New Delhi


K3 is the newly opened JW Marriott's coffee shop. JW Marriott is situated in the freshly developed mini city called "Aerocity" near the International Airport. The hotel as a whole is very strategically located.
The coffee shop is done very well, in terms of ambiance, lighting and seating. The coffee shop has contemporary interiors with top of the line flooring, furniture, crockery and cutlery. An absolute fine dine experience. The lighting is neither too bright nor too dim. A good place to converse since the music is very soft. Since I went there in peak winters, I could tell that the place had been kept warm and comfortable. Such that there was no requirement for a jacket or a coat.
As soon as we entered, we were greeted by their prompt and courteous staff. They guided us to our table since we already had a reservation. 

We opted for the buffet so that we could try all their preparations at once.

The restaurant, like other coffee shops, serves multi cuisine food. Ranging from an elaborate Indian spread, with a few vegetarian and non vegetarian starters, along with a lavish main course variety. They have a separate oriental counter that serves freshly prepared dimsums, starters and lovely main course. What I really liked was the "Make your own soup" option they had, in which one could choose the vegetables, type of boiled noodles and flavoring as desired. Apart from this was an even bigger continental counter that served exotic meats and sea food like duck, turkey and prawns. Italian was being prepared live and customized.

My personal favourites here were the dimsums, the "make your own soup", tarkari biryani, dal makhni ,black pepper mushrooms, vegetables in black bean sauce and their thin crust pizzas.
The italian was made very authentically, however the first time I went there I did not appreciate the pasta much, the tomato sauce was somehow not upto the mark, however when I got penne in cheese sauce made, it was to die for. 
The second time around, both the sauces were made perfectly well, the pasta was well flavored and in Al dante.
Moral of the story is that this place is not just a delight for the non vegetarians, who can indulge into oriental delicacies like duck rolls and crispy fried prawns,Indian chicken biryani and butter chicken and world cuisine like Roasted Turkey,but also a heavenly experience for Vegetarians.

Their staff was brilliantly trained and very courteous. Our plates would be cleared the moment we would get up for our next serving. They would also serve us at our table when requested.They remember faces and would recognize you by your second visit.
Dining for the elite.

The best part however was their dessert counter that boasted of the best desserts one may ask for. Their creme brulee, baked new york cheesecake, chocolate and peanut bar, masala chai ice cream and a live counter for sweet crepes were all adding to the indulgence quotient for me. I got a blueberry and strawberry one made, topped with whipped cream. Their crepes are not as thin as French crepes, because this is a German crepe which they prepare.

The treat was absolutely sinful.
One may think why they don't serve sushi in their buffet spread, which is one reason why I got disappointed at first, but the management has a logic to it, which is that the hotel has a restaurant "Akira Back" that specialises in Japanese and Korean cuisine.

A must visit!

Soi 7 Pub & Brewery

DLF Cyber City

Soi 7 is situated on the 2nd floor of the newly opened, DLF Cyber Hub. DLF Cyber Hub is basically a complex of some excellent restaurants and cafes, built in a very international manner. So if anyone has not yet been here yet, its a must visit. Just to see how pretty it looks.
Soi 7, as the name suggests is a brewery that serves mainly oriental cuisine. Initially it took us sometime to locate the place once we were inside Cyber Hub, because it looks as though the 2nd Floor is absolutely vacant from the ground level. It was only once we asked somebody around that we could figure it out.
Once we entered, we were glad to see the various options they have just to be seated. From open air couches, to open air tables and chairs, to bar stools in the inside area. The place is very spacious and has not at all been tried to accommodate more people than it can. Since its a brewery, the have a lot of beer barrels inside the restaurant which mainly forms the look and the mood of the place.
We were comfortably seated as soon as the courteous staff escorted us to a table of our choice. We ordered 3 Mocktails, of which the best was a Watermelon based mocktail, made out of fresh watermelon juice.It was deliciously fresh, tangy and yummy for a person who likes watermelons. The mocktails were served in big sized glasses which made them worth the price being paid. For starters we ordered a "Stir fried chicken with basil". The chicken was perfectly cooked, the pieces were aptly sized, and being a Thai preparation, it was tangy, spicy and very delicious. The good part was the flavor of basil, which was still coming through well.
For vegetarian starters we ordered "Cottage cheese dumplings" and "Corn and cheese Wantons". The wantons were served crispy and hot. Once bitten into, the cheese and corn would ooze out and make it totally divine. Combined with the sweet chilly dip, Perfect!The dumplings were of cottage cheese and had been tossed in a soya chilly sauce. They were soft and scrumptious. Just the way dumplings should be. It had ample spring onions and peppers in it, which definitely enhanced the taste. However, since the flavor of cottage cheese was predominant, not for someone who is not so fond of "Paneer".
However, the USP of their starters was the fact that they served us 4 dips to chose from. They were all delicious. 2 being slightly more spicy and pungent, while the others were slightly sweet and spicy. One could chose among them according to one's own taste buds.
Since we were just 3 people, we just ordered one main course. They have predetermined main dishes, with fixed combinations of accompaniments and vegetables along with their sauce. However we asked our server if we could make our own combination and we were free to do so. We then chose vegetables in chilly soya sauce and basil fried rice to go with it.The bad part here is, the first time the dish arrived, instead of giving us fried rice, they served us Hakka Noodles. Once we requested our server to change the dish, we got basil fried rice, but the vegetables hardly had any gravy, they were almost dry.The third time we finally got what we wanted. It tasted splendid though. The vegetables and soya chilly sauce was a regular Chinese preparation, but the Basil Fried Rice were the kill. Each grain of rice was separate, has a bite to it and was flavored extremely well with basil leaves.
In totally, the place gets a thumbs up for its food but not so much for the service they offered us on a not so busy day.

Big Yellow Door, North Campus
New Delhi


Big Yellow Door was on my wishlist since forever. Simply because I had heard so much about this place from so many foodies around me, that I just had to be there to experience it for myself.

BYD, as they call it is located in Vijaynagar, which is a part of the University of Delhi, North Campus Area. This meant that for BYD the target customer base has always been University students. This is what contributes to its young and multi cuisine menu, and its surprisingly cheap prices. We were a group of 3 and as we reached BYD, we were shocked to see more than 20 people sitting on benches outside waiting for their turns to be seated. Honestly I have never seen such popularity for any place lately. We also had to wait for about 40 minutes to get a table inside.

We hurriedly walked to our table that had been kept ready for us. BYD is a very small and cozy cafe. Not big in its size at all, but their interiors and very cool and chick. They have walls that give the effect of unfinished bricks stacked on top of each other. They have one wall that has only sticky notes of neon colors, on which various customers have given their reviews about this place. Very relaxing, warm and comfortable interiors, giving a youthful feeling.

So we looked through the menu and were pleased to see how they have incorporated various cuisines, from pizzas and pastas to burgers and sandwiches. We ordered a Creamy Cheese sauce Pasta and Cheesy Nachos Mexicana to begin our meal. Along with this we ordered a Kit Kat shake, a Rocky Road Shake and a Chocolate Brownie Shake.
The food arrived rather quickly. The pasta was creamy and cheesy as the name suggests. Sinfully cheesy I can say.It was aptly seasoned and the thick white sauce was just wow. The Nachos were just as sinful as the pasta. As cheese dripped from each and every piece. They were served with a yummy salsa dip, which was tangy and spicy, all at once. The two things gave a great start to our meal. 

Then came our shakes. The Kit-Kat shake was very sweet and chocolaty. The taste of Kit Kate chocolate was pronounced. Rocky Road shake was filled with tit-bits of what I think were Oreo Cookies. Yummy in taste, thick and the biscuit crumbs were not yet soft which showed the freshness in their preparations. The chocolate brownie shake was with thick consistency, creamy , chocolaty and absolutely delicious. Bites of brownies would rush into the mouth making it a total treat!

Once were done with the starters, we ordered our main course. We ordered a Tipsy-liscious Pasta, a Popeyes Love Pizza and a BYD Cheese Bomb burger. 
The Tipsy-liscious Pasta was probably their take on the epic "Penne with Vodka" served at Big Chill, but let me tell you that for me, this pasta overshadowed Big Chill. It was creamy, flavorful, saucy and scrumptious. It was a mix of tomato and cheese sauce with just a dash of vodka to add "that" Zing to it. Pasta was cooked well, but not overcooked, and what was great was the proportion of sauces they had chosen.
The Popeyes Love Pizza was a thin crust pizza served on a wooden platter. It was topped with olives, spinach and onions. Now frankly, I was skeptical because I had never tried spinach in a pizza. But, to my surprise, the pizza just turned out to be a wonderful experiment.
Nonetheless, the highlight of the day was undoubtedly their BYD Cheese Bomb Burger. Served in a basket lined with paper, some chips and a chilly mayo dip, this burger was half opened when it came, with BYD written on the patty with melted cheese.
So once you cover it back and bite into it, the cheese gushes into your mouth and drips all over.
Heavenly is what I can say. By far the best burger experience I have had to date.






After stuffing ourselves up so much, we just could not head towards the desserts and called for the bill.

And guess what, all we paid for so much food was Rs 1000.
So 5 Food items and 3 Shakes for just this much. 

I would not overestimate the place and hence would mention that their servings were not huge, but to me it is a blessing in disguise so that one can order a variety of items from the menu.
