Heard a lot about this outlet and its food from my foodie friends. So recently when I was in CP with family I decided to give it a try. I am a big fan of Delhi street food and like spicy meals. Compare to Delhi, Bombay ( yes, for me it is still Bombay ) street food is totally different. Less spicy with different flavour.
It was an early evening so we just ordered some snacks.

Restaurant Review: Elf Cafe & Bar, Hauz Khas Village, New Delhi – 5/5 Star

Eat, Love , Fun…. ambience, atmosphere, vibrant, music, cocktails, food, hospitality, concept..innovative, Cartoons on the wall, focused lighting thru lampshades.., No doubt its my kind of place.

Extensive alcoholic and non-alcoholic menu and in case you are confused.. just ask for Bartender’s special Mocktail …….. its superb and very refreshing .

Food, .. just wow… wide variety of veg starters to choose from ( I am a vegetarian-:)

– Delicious Chili Paneer which was of extremely soft Paneer.

– Crispy from outside and creamy/soft from inside Dahi ke Kabab served with green Chutney .

– Creamy spaghetti with olives

– Pahadi ( पहाड़ी ) Menu was a surprise. मसालेदार Wai Wai with Tabasco Sauce was just great.

– Paneer tikka thin crust pan pizza with onions and paneer was OK type..

– In dessert , I had brownie with vanilla ice cream and hot chocolate sauce.

Elf also hosts ‘ Live it Up’ , 7 to 10 pm .. a new concept where anyone can perform front of a live audience sitting in Elf..

Met Mr Swaraj, the man behind Elf. I really impressed by his energy and passion about food and hospitality.

– Ambience : 5/5 – Love

– Service : 5/5 – Fun

– Pricing : 4/5 ( Slightly overpriced)

Restaurant Review: Mamagoto, Vasant Kunj, New Delhi – 3.5/5 Star

Visited Mamagoto on 3rd December for @zomato meat up and to review special menu prepared for us.
It was an opportunity to interact with fellow food reviewers of zomato family.

Its a unique place with good colorful decor and paintings. Mamgoto is known for their excellent variety Pan Asian cuisine.

From starters to the main course and desserts everything was excellent in taste and served by humble and polite staff..

Had a wide variety of special veg menu and I also tried their White Rum Cocktail and another whiskey based cocktail. Desserts were wonderful.

Overall good experience and made some good foodie friends.

Restaurant Review: Dunkin’ Donuts Vasant Vihar, New Delhi – 3.5/5 Star

Not really a fan of any Dunkin Donuts 🙂

The chained stores of Dunkin’ Donuts’ has great-tasting food and beverages, they include a wide variety of hot and iced coffee, teas, shakes, frozen drinks, lattes and cappuccinos. They do add drops of liquid flavors. These add calories to the drink.
Clean restaurant and attentive staff serves you with a friendly smile. You can sit enjoying your coffee and no one will bother you.
Ordered Spicy veg Burger and Chef’s Special veg Burger. Both were good but not as great as I was expecting. Latte was not at par with CCD or Starbucks .
Got 2 Donuts free on my order 🙂 and both were fresh and really tasty & soft. ( Death by Chocolate and Bav Crm Chocolate)

Overall rating :
Ambiance : 4.5/5
Food : 3.5/5
Pricing : 3/5 ( Pricey)
Service : 4.5/5
