Teddy Boy

Baner,Pune,India The open air expanse, the nip in the Pune air and the rooftop gives Teddy Boy a edge and they put this to great use.  With both High and low seating, a long bar and a dj  the ambiance of the place is very inviting.  My first visit happened on Woman’s day, as early...

Yumlok

Bengaluru, India The reviews seemed great and the menu creative but the food didn't pass muster but for the sattu paratha. The gobhi manchurian was stodgy and sour , the paneer chatpata had stale paneer and was sour tooo. Perhaps a bad day for them but surely not again for me. may be the sattu... Continue Reading →

House of Paratha

Pune, India Very good product at a good price. The parathas were huge and the filling generous.We had ordered the paratha thali and the dal and sabzi that came along didn't pass muster. Suggest you go for parathas only, it comes with boondi raita and salad. Will try more from their list of parathas soon!

Salt, Hinjewadi

Done up in a minimal style, this place would gives you a feel for a highway side dhabas, with brick walls and tin roofs. What drew me to... Continue Reading →

Their oriental options are great and the Indian selection good. Last thing I would like to appreciate them is for their... Continue Reading →
