I was invited by the hotel today
to experience VIBE. They are also doing Live gigs like standup comedy,
Rock Bands and Sufi Nights throughout the week.
The Beverage Expert also the
F&B manager of this property Mr. Soumitra Lodh got us several of
his creations which were really mind boggling. The first creation was a
gastronomical wonder named as Bubblegum Cocktail. Quiet good to taste and
well presented. Second was the Achari Mojito, yes Mojito infused with Mango
pickle again a winner for our Indian pallete. Then came the Laughing Zombie
which had some refreshing pineapple foam atop of it mixed with several other
ingredients. One of the best ones was the Angoori Tink which had many things
in it like angosutra bitters, basil, lemon, vermouth, white wine and a test
tube also filled with mint and lime cooler. This was really good.
They have a real good cocktails menu with several innovations and creations
of their own. Like they will also be doing the barrel aged cocktails for
which they are expecting the barrels to arrive in a few days. I am looking
forward to it eagerly.
The food here is just a page in
the menu with 7-8 starters including veg and non veg. I liked the Blue cheese
malai tikka (chicken) and the Crispy baby potatoes a lot. Other starters are
nice but can be improvised more and yes the quantity is not too much .It's
just 4 -5small pieces per portions other than the potatoes which were more.
The new Exec. Chef informed us that the food is being taken seriously and
more things will be put up on the Menu soon.
I must admit, this place is going
to be a new destination in town. It's a recommended visit for all, if for
nothing else then go there only for views of the city over a drink or two.
Wear some good warm clothes as it's going to be a little colder on the terrace.
But, I am sure this place is going to be a game changer albeit they maintain
their standards both in service and F & B, which I am sure they will.
You will seriously enjoy and love
this place.
