L’Opéra Salon de Thé Inaugurates New Outlet At Bikaner House, New Delhi

Central Delhi-based Bikaner House is becoming quite the place to be for food lovers. With restaurants like Chor Bizarre and The Tea Lounge already on its premise, the swanky Rajasthani cultural hub just ramped up its space with a new outlet of popular French patisserie, L’Opéra Salon de Thé, which opened its gates to the public last weekend.

The pleasures of a cup of tea

Hotel Breakfasts Few things are more pleasurable than hotel breakfasts. Who doesn’t love elaborate spreads of  baked goods, eggs and cold cuts, chicken and vegetables dressed in ways one only sees in beautifully illustrated volumes of the 1001 Arabian Nights? What a splendid start to the day! What I actually love about these busy spreads is that their variety replicates the random jumbles in the…

Theme Restaurants and Cafes

Theme restaurants are a rage these days. Everyone wants to do something different. Theme restaurants and cafes take you to different era or world. Delhi is not very far behind when it comes to theme restaurants and cafes. Rang De Basanti Dhaba: Now, this is no way connected to Aamir Khan or his movie. The Indian village theme is evident from the fact that a tractor is placed in the middle of the…

July 2013

Last summer we had the opportunity to take a quick weekend trip to London, during which we tried to squeeze in as many restaurants as possible. 

Above, a beautiful tartare from Tom's Kitchen at Somerset House, which serves elevated British pub food. 

Due to the dim lighting inside, we have no blog-worthy pictures of our meal at Clove Club. But trust us, this is a must visit. Set in the hipster / posh neighborhood of Shoreditch, Clove Club's cool, laid-back interior and impeccable tasting menu make it one of our favorite vacation spots to date.

  The next day, we walked off our tasting menu in Hyde Park, followed by an Indian feast at Chor Bizzare in Mayfair. 

With our mouths on fire, we headed to Vista at the Trafalgar Hotel for several bottles of rose. Although our entire trip lasted about 36 hours, we feel pretty good about we ate...we mean, accomplished.

The Rundown

Sleep: We're no help here, since we stayed at a friend's place.

Eat: Tom's Kitchen for an upscale lunch, Clove Club for a splurge-worthy meal, and Chor Bizarre for authentic Indian.

 Comfort Inn the President and The Broadway Hotel The sight of city in ruins behind is Old Delhi  and New Delhi is in front. So it leave very little to guess where these two hotels stand. Chandni chowk is not far from here and so is Connaught Place. These places are for serious travelers who are willing to blend in and learn more about the locals. And any serious traveler or foodie would have known by now that the soul of India still lies in the backward India. According to many food magazine and reviews Chor Bizzare Restaurant of Broadway Hotel serves one of the best Kashmere food in Delhi. It's popularity has only been propelled by many food awards bestowed upon it; recently being the 'Food Award' from Times of India. The interior of the Hotel is also awesome. Many decorative items that represents India when put up in a room sparks like revelation of India's true soul. It's difficult to get a meal without advance booking. Morning walk tour with lunch package is the new craze. Comfort Inn The President also has Cafe Tandoor restaurant and bar.                                                                 1.Comfort Inn the President:
