The Piano Man Jazz Club

Mom’s birthday dinner last night was at The Piano Man. I was back there in a week for their pizzas. This time around we had a very full 3 course meal. We started with Pesto Chicken and Sundried Tomato Salad and Southern Fried Chicken Wings.

Moved on to the favourite Quatro Formaggi Pizza, Vietnamese Bahn-Mi, and Margarita Pizza.

And ended the meal with Lemon Grass & Kafir Lime Crème Brulée.

Except for the Bahn-Mi everything else was excellent!! Highly recommend the place.

After a long while exploring a new recipe - Mutton Yakhni. Not bad for a first attempt, if I may say so myself! 😎

Residence of the Ambassador of Netherlands, Delhi

Got a chance yesterday to participate in a lunch event at the Residence of the Ambassador of Netherlands. This devilishly simple looking 3 course meal was just perfect. My favourite was the first and the last course. The creaminess of the Avacado Mousse along with the tartness of grated tomato was just divine. The last dish was Panna Cotta. It was my first time and ranks easily among the best desserts I’ve had!

This building was at some point Muhammad Ali Jinnah’s residence and this was Jinnah’s study, where apparently the India-Pakistan partition was discussed. Presently this is the residence of the Ambassador of Netherlands.
