Lord of the drinks barrel house Sector 29 Gurgaon

Sector 29 Main Market in Gurgaon is witnessing a flurry of activity with plenty of top notch brands opening shop here.

Recently I went to Lord of the Drinks - Barrel House which has opened up shutters at the same building where Fork You Too ran shop. The first thing you notice when you enter is how huge and spacious this place is. The interiors have this wide and grand vibe to it. I simply loved how they have used skull designs in decor and crockery. The plates in their bright colors look so good and pleasant amidst a warm decor.

This place is a great place for you if you like your drinks. They have two levels and a bar in both of them. A huge bar with a wide range of liquor options including a micro brewery which I think will start very soon.

In terms of service, the eatery has a huge staff even going by the space they have, it seems they have been generous enough to hire so many bartenders and service staff. This ensures that the service is quick and prompt and someone is always around to refill your glass.

Drinks

Going by the name of the place, you can already guess that this going to be the place get your favorite drink. They have an extensive range of custom cocktails, loads of variety of wine and traditional drinks. I tried the Sangria in its various forms and would definitely recommend it to all.

The competition is really heating up at Sector 29. Just opposite LOD is the My Bar and next door neighbor is going to be the Ministry of Beer. I recently visited Agent Jack's and it was doing a brisk business too. LOD has the advantage of the strong brand presence in Delhi NCR with regular patrons across the region. A friend who has been to almost all their centers, informed me that the HKV (LOD meadows) is amongst the best of the lot and is quite busy always.

The Food

The food here is pretty good especially if you are looking for the standard Indian or Italian fare. The traditional Indian tikkas and fried stuff come fresh and well prepared.

I tried the fish fry and the chicken tikkas and they were yum. The chicken pastas were prepared to perfection. The butter chicken slider was okayish, not as good as the rest of the menu. The Nachos were excellent companions to my whiskey.

People around me were enjoying pizzas which looked appetizing though I didn't taste it, but the pizzas looked fantastic as well. (I had my focus squarely on the upcoming desserts, which were awesome).

In desserts, I had the chocolate brownie and Chocolate Terrine both of them lush with chocolate and divine pleasure.

Must Try - The Pasta and the Nachos

Nearest Metro Station - Huda City Centre,

Nearest landmark - Bikanerwala is an old institution at Sector 29 Market. LOD is right next to it.

Epitome of Equality

First of all This is not to demean any religion.. I am a Hindu by birth, but yes I respect all religions .I offer my daily prayers , fast on holy days , but there was something that was disturbing me . God as per me was a Friend, someone who was by my side always , someone who was a dear friend , but this is not what everyone else thought , for others he was the Judge who gives his verdict always and punishes anyone and everyone . Walk into any temple and you would see , if you have money , you will be treated in a way as if you are the ONLY disciple of the God . I have had too many experiences where I was treated as a second class citizen in the temple . Why? Well I could not afford giving thousands as donation. This is not how it should be , God looks at each one of us with the same divinity .As I mentioned God for me is a friend, so tell me, do we chose friends based on their bank balances? Do we give our verdict on them ? then how can God do it? I know many of us would ...

Indian Real Estate in 2024: Resilient, sustainable, and ready for tomorrow

Indian real estate in 2024 proved its mettle, balancing global uncertainties with innovation, sustainability, and adaptability. From smart infrastructure to hybrid workspaces, the sector evolved alongside changing consumer expectations. Looking ahead to 2025, cautious optimism prevails, with tech-driven transformations, urban regeneration, and community-focused projects promising a brighter future for developers, investors, and homeowners alike. How did Indian Real Estate fare in 2024? If someone had told me a decade ago that I’d witness buildings go from brick-and-mortar dreams to sustainable, smart havens, I’d have laughed. But here we are in 2024, a year that saw India’s real estate sector withstand the weight of inflation, global economic jitters, and shifting lifestyles. From green-certified luxury homes to hybrid workspaces in buzzing metros, 2024 wasn’t just about building properties—it was about building resilience, sustainability, and a roadmap for 2025. Shall we take a closer...

When family hurts: A tale of love, loss, and liberation

In the shadow of the Jasmine tree: Breaking free from a toxic family In the decaying splendour of Eyrevale Manor, Elara battles toxic parents, rekindles forbidden love, and questions whether she can escape the chains of her upbringing. Under a canopy of jasmine, secrets are shared, hearts break, and truths unravel. Set in an enchanting town, this story examines love, loss, and the painful pursuit of self-discovery. What happens when home feels like a battleground? No one warns you how heavy a homecoming can feel when the word home means nothing to you. If there is one universal truth, it is this: not all homes are sanctuaries. For some, they are labyrinths of unspoken grudges, passive-aggressive remarks, and familial obligations wrapped in barbed wire. My story, dear reader, begins in the sweltering heat of Eyrevale—a coastal town so humid it could curdle your very thoughts. And for me, Eyrevale wasn’t just oppressive because of its climate. No, it was the family home that truly choke...
