Eau de Monsoon, Delhi

A week ago we had been to Eau de Monsoon in Le Meridien as part of the Restaurant Week offer. These were the beautiful cutlery. Loved the golden patterns on the black plate.

If I remember right, this was called Cauliflower Cappuccino. It was a palate cleanser before the meal began at Eau de Monsoon. Very earthy flavor of Cauliflower, cream and mushroom (I think!)

The starters we had from the Restaurant Week menu of Eau de Monsoon. Top is Chicken Tikka along with Olive Khasta and sundried tomatoes, garlic and pink peppercorn jelly. Bottom is Mushrooms stuffed with goat cheese and chili, served with banana wafers. All were super yummy!

Burma Burma, Gurgaon

Been a while since I posted any food pics. Now opening the flood gates :)

Had this wonderful vegetarian meal at @burmaburmaindia a few weeks ago.

Throughly enjoyed the food. So much were we engrossed in the conversation and food that I totally missed taking picture of the main course :D

Artwork on ceiling at the entrance of Ajmer Junction.

A while ago I read about an initiative to paint railway stations in Rajasthan with local art work. During my vacation a week ago, got to see it in person. You could easily hurt craning your neck to keep looking at this beautiful work of art on the ceiling.

Another angle of the artwork.


The beautiful ceiling at Nareli Jain temple

Watched Thithi which was being screened as part of BRICS film festival.

The screening was followed by Q&A with the director Ram Reddy.

What a wonderful film. If you ever get a chance don’t miss it.

Did not know that Indian Railways had started stacking of cargo containers. Nice!!

Not sure feeding them Atta (wheat flour dough) is a good thing, but looking at the size of these fishes and they fighting over every piece that was thrown, they seem to have adapted to it well !!

My fascination with ceilings and geometric shapes continues.

This was Nakki Lake in Mount Abu this morning. Captured this from a moving car, but before I could get down, the entire lighting had changed. Hope to get more of this from tomorrow’s morning walk.

A morning well spent in pounding a batch of ‘Thalavakaram’ under the watchful eyes of The Missus.

The taste difference in making a ground paste using a mixer / grinder / food processor and using a pounding stone / ammi kal are worlds apart. The oil extracted from condiments by the pounding action makes the effort totally worth it.

Ziu Restaurant, Delhi

Had a wonderful dinner at @ziurestaurant as part of the @dinefestin. Loved their Tom Yum soup and Khao Suey noodles. Among the desserts the Coconut Tiramisu was amazing.

And of course Pokemons had to make it’s way to Rakhis.


Looking forward to today’s desserts. Bought these @masonandco_chocolate from @bluetokaicoffee yesterday.

@anuradhag86 remembered your post about these chocolates when I saw them in the counter.


Had one of my best coffees ever at @bluetokaicoffee.

Tried their Aeropress brew of Attikan estate’s Arabica, which was so bloody smooth. We also tasted their Capuccino and Coconut flavoured Mocha which were amazing as well. Highly recommend them.
