Frankly speaking, few years back I was first introduced to Momo I Am through their unique wall art and graffiti like many other ‘bhaat machh-er jhol’ eating Bengali. That was pretty new in Kolkata then! I was introduced to their food maybe a year later after that artsy discovery! And yes, I was blown away!…
The city is changing rapidly and so is its habits and lifestyle mantra. These days people demand more from an eatery, in fact they demand more from everything in their lives.

When I was walking out of Burnt Garlic, I was pretty confused! I had heard so many negative reviews about this place and even found people writing negative comments on my facebook check-in to this place!

It may differ for many, but for me having authentic South Indian food in Kolkata means heading straight to Banana Leaf! It’s the no-frill holy institution of South Indian food lovers serving amazing food and nothing else.

I genuinely love where Q33 is placed on the ground floor of Quest Mall, it stands tall with the big brands like Canali, Michael Kors, Gucci, etc and as you go up the levels and look down below you see the typical circular structure of this open café around the escalator. The café looks beautiful…

Ever since I returned to Kolkata from the mesmerizing Kerala trip, I have been searching for places who can somehow manage to dish out something remotely close to what I have tasted back there while floating on the backwaters!!

Mall food courts are mostly sad, and you can’t really complain since they are serving you stuffs at quite reasonable prices. So they kinda strike a balance between street side unhygienic food and chef’s ultimate masterpieces; and try to get you something having elements from both the worlds.
