Review of Aman Chicken, Shaheed Bhagat Singh Nagar Market, Ludhiana Aman Chicken is a well-regarded dining spot in Ludhiana, and our visit was mostly delightful. The Dal Makhani stood out as a highlight—rich, creamy, and absolutely delicious. Their signature Butter Chicken , although flavorful, was initially spicier than our liking. However, the chef was kind enough to adjust it to suit our palate, a gesture we truly appreciated. The Chicken Malai Tikka was the star of the meal for me, with its perfect blend of creamy and smoky flavors. Tandoori Chapati with traditional Butter Chicken Service was prompt and efficient, with a young, energetic team of waiters who were attentive and quick on their feet. It's clear that Hardeep and his team are doing a commendable job managing the place.        Onion Salad The ambience is pleasant, and there’s ample parking available, which is a plus. Unfortunately, the surrounding market is quite dull and lacks vibrancy, which slight...

Once upon a time, an ancient sage, Rishi Chyavana, discovered the secret to eternal youth—Chyawanprash, an Ayurvedic concoction that has since stood the test of time. This "elixir of vitality" is a powerhouse of herbs, roots, and fruits, promising immunity, vigour, and health for centuries. But what exactly goes into it, and how does it benefit us today? Join me as I narrate the fascinating tale of Chyawanprash, explore its ingredients, and discover how modern brands are evolving this ancient formula. --- Where did Chyawanprash come from? Let us rewind a few thousand years to the peaceful and idyllic world of ancient India. Picture a dense forest, the calls of birds echoing through the air, and an old, wise sage deep in meditation. His name was Rishi Chyavana. You might imagine him with a long white beard, hunched over with the weight of the centuries he had lived. Though blessed with immense knowledge and divine power, old age had not been kind to him. His body was frail, hi...

Food tried at Pot Pot We recently visited Pot Pot and tried some of their signature dishes. We started with Truffle Malai Chicken Tikka, a unique twist on the classic chicken tikka. This dish was prepared with chicken, cheese truffle, and cream; the flavours were outstanding. The truffle essence and creaminess of the dish gave it a unique taste that delighted our taste buds. Smoked Potter Chicken Next up was the Smoked Potter Chicken, their version of the famous butter chicken, which was perfectly smoked. The succulent chicken and the smoky flavour added another dimension to the dish. We also tried...

Bombay Club is located close to the Colocal Café at the Dhan Mill Compound, Chattarpur. Its ambience is soothing with lots of white. The skylights and the use of mirrors gives the place an expansive, spacious vibe. The cane furniture is right at home, and you can get seating near a power plug. Just in case you need to work with a laptop or on the phone and need the charging point. The service is full marks at Bombay Club. Aakash, who served us, pampered us well, with each request followed. He also helped with the right recommendations and was extremely patient while we decided which food to order. The variety is wide. The management has curated the best and most famous foods from across Mumbai. Somewhat reminded me of Bombay Sandwich Company, another Mumbai food-centric eatery at Cross Point Mall, Gurgaon, which I think has shuttered down, unfortunately. Personally, I don't like the QR code menus in vogue today, so I liked it how they had put up a blackboard with the sp...

OMO at Galleria Market in Gurgaon  with an earthy and minimalist décor serves some unique vegetarian fare with interesting ingredients sourced from various parts of India. Would definitely recommend the coffee ☕ here beans for which have been sourced from Nagaland. The service is quite good with the staff patiently explaining to you the food and its ingredients in case like me, you do not get an idea about what to order. Minimalist interiors with wooden ceilings at Omo Galleria Bright Hospitality, founded by Rajan Sethi is famous for its non vegetarian fare. Across their brands, from the now closed California Boulevard, AM PM Cafe and Bar, Ikk Punjab and GT Road they have served great meat dishes (the veg is good at their outlets but meats are legendary). I was therefore surprised to hear that Rajan and his wife Deepika had now worked up a new eatery dedicated to quality vegetarian food. My curiosity led me to this beautiful OMO Cafe for dinner with family.  The coffee beans ?...
