Farzi Cafe - Cyber City Gurgaon

Farzi Cafe which set up shop at the Cyber Hub a few years back pioneered the concept of molecular gastronomy in Gurgaon. It's generally always full and a reservation is definitely recommended before heading to FC.

I went to Farzi Cafe recently for dinner and was met with a warm hospitality and courteous staff. The setting is divided into two sections the one closer to the main door more preferred for small groups. They have a well-stocked bar with a variety of wine and drinks. I ordered a couple of cocktails which were good.

Starters
Keema Kulcha with Mint Jalapeno - Minced mutton added into small pockets of bread and served with a great chutney.

Dal Chawal Arancini - A signature dish at FC Dal Chawal Arancini is one of their bestselling items as well. Dal balls are served with papads on the top.

Grainy Mustard Fish Tikka - The best dish I found at this place came with its own barbeque set (coal lit). The fish had abundance of flavors and the sauce over it accentuated the taste.

Tempura Fried Prawns - with lemon air - Freshly fried prawns with foamy air, adding a twist through molecular gastronomy.

Main Course

Tried the cheese naan, which was very crisp and light and came with an awesome chicken cooked to perfection.

Desserts

Tried the Ras Malai Tress with carrot embedded into it.

Chocolate Dome - A beautiful ball of chocolate with cashew nut mawa and a generous dose of Horlicks milk poured over it. It had Chocolate mousse inside.

Ironically, even though the place is famous for its innovation with food, its the core Indian food which shines in this place.

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Summary Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In...

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...
