Fajita Fiesta at Chili’s, Quest Mall !

Exploring Cuisines

​Chili’s isn’t a new name for us. With its inception in Kolkata, this place had always been in the hype, much due to the fact that it stands undoubtedly as the best restaurant in Kolkata serving Tex-Mex food. Their tripple dipper, burgers, fajitas, baby back ribs, blackened fish and everything else had been very famous among all of us.

The first outlet of Chili’s was at Quest Mall, which is my personal favourite. So, it was double the happiness on getting an invitation for a bloggers meet for their ongoing ‘Fajita Fiesta’ at Quest Mall. Now, I’m quite sure many of haven’t tasted or even known of a fajita before. A fajita is a part of Tex-Mex cuisine, in which grilled pieces of meat are served on a tortilla bread. This is one of the popular dishes in American casual dining restaurants but in Kolkata the only restaurant that serves…

Simply foodolicious! おいしい! 好吃! 맛있는! délicieux! delicioso! 好食!

Dinner by Heston Blumenthal 

Crown Towers Melbourne, 130/8 Whiteman St, Southbank VIC 3006, Australia

dinner3 years ago, it was an electrifying birthday lunch at the original Dinner by Heston Blumenthal in London, and this time round, the restaurant is revisited for the same occasion, however, at its second outlet in the Southern Hemisphere, Melbourne. Expectedly, an extremely intriguing meal despite the presence of heavy British influences which usually has an infamous connotation to monotony, yet instead with lots of creativity abound over here. My second visit and still, the star of the day for both the buddy and I goes to the Mandarin appetiser that made Heston a wonder. Sat comfortably, overlooking the skyline of melbourne through the 2 storey-high glass facade, that lies adjacent to the buzzing “open” kitchen, yet still able to enjoy the serenity of the packed restaurant, this was I thought pretty world class.

What I ate in St. Petersburg! Gastronomika, great restaurant, great views!

Unprofessional reviews of meals & travels

My first ever meal in St. Petersburg is at this Ginza Project owned International Cuisine calledGastronomika. I didn’t choose it! My lovely colleague who planned most of the St. Petersburg trip chose it, and kudos to her for choosing such an awesome restaurant.

This restaurant is located on the top floor of a mall called the “Olympic Plaza” and as such it provided a beautiful, astonishing view of St. Petersburg. We did request a window seat, and the restaurant obliged without us having to pay anything extra! Scoreeeeeee.

The food here was pretty decent, I got the pad thai as I was still craving thai food from my previous bangkok trip. Also ordered the Tom Yum soup because well…Tom Yum is just damn delicious. My colleague got the burger starters and also complimented. Overall, fantastic dining experience.

You know what was also really cool at this restaurant? The…

What I ate in Moscow! City Space Restaurant. Awesome View. Awesome Burger.

Unprofessional reviews of meals & travels

Okay so here’s a question. What do you think my first meal in Moscow would be? Authentic Russian Food? Hell no.

It would a burger.

A kick ass burger, at a kick ass restaurant that is called City Space. This bar / lounge / restaurant is located on the top floor of the Swissotel that I was staying in. Truth be told I came here because I was damn tired after at 12+ hour flight to Moscow. I just wanted to eat somewhere close, and since this place came highly recommended by my peers I decided to try it out.

I naturally, ordered the burger. As you can tell from the picture this was super good, and super delicious. Yep, it’s not of those foods where it only looks good but is shitty to eat. It looks good, tastes good. Super recommend it.

And yes that’s a Cesar drink…
