Kiva's tiffins : Kamla Nehru Park
Friday, November 06, 2009
Address: Bang opposite Kamla Nehru Park. You can't miss it.
Cuisine: Udipi and a little more
Review: Good food. Cheap food. The Sambar was too sweet. Everything else was good. Make sure you don't sit near the paav bhaji hot plate, or else you are going to get some serious eye-watering!

Review:
This is a classy place, time to get out the formal shoes and pants and put your make up on. Of course, you can always be a "don't care" :)
This place is still not very crowded, we had no wait at all. Step out on the deck and you will be amazed. The wooden flooring, the service, the view.. absolutely amazing.
The restaurant inside serves Indian food (Which I am told is quite good). They also have a lunch buffet at about 290 rs. They serve Italian-ish food on the deck outside. The starters, soup and pizza was awesome. Main course was good for most, except the lamb steak (some similar name, I don't remember) was chewy. I am not sure if it was overcooked, or that I ate it after a while.
Mashed potatoes to go with it were divine. I am guessing the chewy meat was a blooper. The veggie stuff like pasta was really good. Pizza was a thin crust pizza and a welcome change. (authentic thin crust)
Pricing about 400 rs for the main course, 100 rs for the soup. Portions are quite huge. We had to skip dessert.
They have an amazing bar section with a psychedelic bar and even better view :) They also have a separate section for private parties for a group of 40. It is a nice place if you want to impress your friends/family/coworkers.
Tip: Carry a shawl or sweater if its a little cool. It definitely is cooler up there. Not really a place for kids, since most of the guests are there was a quiet dinner or business dinners. Your screaming kids will embarass you..

Review:
We went here right after it opened for business. They didn't seem quite ready for business at the time.
The pizza was good, what you would expect at Papa John's. The soups are quite poor in quality, seem like they come straight out of the instant soup cans. Salads are good.
Service left a lot to be desired. They seemed to forget parts of our order. The Papa John's near Ruby Hall was a much better experience overall.
Tip: Don't forget to order the garlic breadsticks. Awesome stuff!
Their kid's meal includes a "Happy Face Pizza" which has "Pepperoni eyes". We were upset that they didn't inform us while ordering. It turned out that it was chicken pepperoni after all!

Review:
They serve a mix of Chinese and Thai food. I can't really say either the chinese or the thai food is authentic. It is quite tasty though. The service is good. If the weather is good I would surely recommend the outdoor seating. The indoor seating is somewhat crowded.
This restaurant is really hard to locate, so refer to the google map above.
Recommendations:
Thai Chicken Chilli Basil was good. If you are in a mood to try something different (and non-spicy) go for Crispy Chicken Chilly Honey for starters.

Review: One of the better managed and bigger CCD's. They do deliver in the area, but sometimes refuse to deliver as they are understaffed. You can always order on the phone and pick up.

Review:
Good, authentic Punjabi food has finally arrived in Baner. Although the exterior of the restaurant doesn't make a great impression on a passer by, the interior is equally well done. I would surely call it a "Familly Restaurant". The food is very good. It's almost as good as Tareef in Aundh. Tareef's preparation is a bit better, but for residents of Baner, this is surely a very good alternative. Nice and clean inside, it is surely going to be quite popular in Baner.
Recommendations:
Jehangiri Murgh Shorba, Tandoor/Kebabs in general. Murgh Lahori was awesome!
