Arthur’s Theme, Baner

Pune, India

Went to this place after long, the last time was 6 years back at their Koregaon place. This one at Balewadi High Street is done up in good taste. Bright colours, cheerful upholstery and an energetic vibe. The place however disappointed once again due to lack of attention to food. The woodfired pizzas for which we travelled 8 kms came to us from electric ovens and we were not informed. The ricotta on the pizza was grated paneer, why put ricotta on the menu then! The grated  potato pancake which I expected to be roesti was a blob of mashed potato which lacked any discernible flavour.The good part of our experience was the freshness of ingredients used, right from the paneer to the mushrooms to the carrots and of course the service. Arthur’s theme serves a comforting post drink meal and you won’t be disappointed then.
