Who Said Wenger's was Only About Pastries??

Hello Everyone

Now everyone who is in Delhi knows about Wenger's. It is the oldest and one of the best bakery situated in heart of Delhi (Connaught Place). It had a wide variety of pastries and probably the best ones. But Lesser known fact are its savory Items. Infact Wenger's has host of snacks that you wont find anywhere in Delhi. (Infact I personally love their snacks more than their Pastries!) 

So on my quest to to bring out the best that wenger's has to offer, I went there yesterday. 

They have a huge menu, starting from different Baquettes, burgers, cutlets, sandwiches and patties! (Trust me list is endless!). The best part about Wenger's is that they have both non veg and Veg items and the variety is magnanimous in both Veg and Non-Veg ( Its very rare thing now days as now most of the outlets have more options in Non-Veg and very limited options for veg :( ) 

While I was tempted to try everything But I though of trying somthing different, So I went ahead and ordered following: 

1. Mutton Shami Kebeb

2. Chicken Patty

3. Veg Baquette

4. Coconut macroon

I must say I absolutely Loved everything. My personal favourite is chicken patty, Try it out if you wanna have chicken and patty in a new avtar. It is like a pair made in heaven. I also loved coconut macroon, though to some it might feel like a coconut burfi, but I simply love coconut dessert hence I liked it too. 

Veg baquette is a very light and flavorful footlong. so serve you pizza cravings. I personally am not big fan of mutton hence I didnt like shami kebeb much but it is worth trying if you are a meat lover. 

Overall I was too satisfied with the food and I would definitely so there again, and next time you visit Wenger's don't just fall for pastries and try host of snack items that Wenger's has to offer.

9 Things Only a True Delhiite will Relate to!

You can't hear a single word against Delhi from an Outsider 

You keep on cribbing about Delhi's pollution, traffic, unsafety and crowd all the time, but you cant hear anything against it from someone else. The moment an outsider says a word against it, you turn into fumes and you will come up with hundreds reasons to prove that person wrong and convince him how awesome Delhi is.

You can't imagine living in any other state except Delhi. The thought itself gives you chills. 

you cant live anywhere except Delhi. Even if you move out, you will miss everything about it, even the traffic, the  Delhi winters. You feel as if world is collapsing around you.  Just like Delhi is nothing without Delhiwallas, A true Delhiite feels incomplete without Delhi.

No one can beat you in metro 'seat grab race' and you know all Jugaads of traveling in Delhi Metro 

You are a expert when it comes to traveling in metro,  you know exact time and station to an empty metro, and you know how to squeeze into smallest of place to grab a seat in metro. You are avid athlete when it comes to running for your metro seat or making way in and out of Rajiv chowk

You are a foodie and love trying all cuisine but nothing can beat the pleasure of eating Delhi street food! 

You simply love Delhi chaat, gol gappas, Chole Bhature, tikki, Butter chicken and in-numerous food varieties that Delhi has to offer.  you love going to different places and try all kinds of food but street food is you all time favorite you hog it like anything.  You take food very seriously and it is very hard to convince your palate. Good food is all you want and you never settle for anything average. 

You never miss out a chance on bargaining and you are pretty good at it!

Bargaining lies in you blood. your bargaining skills can even put even the best negotiator's skill to shame and why not, when you have places like sarojini nagar, janpath,  lajpat nagar, kamla nagar and the over smart autowalas and rickshawwallas to train you from childhood on how to bargain. 

You are a really deal cracker and know how to get best deals. 

You Frown when people compare Noida or Gurgaon with Delhi. 

Never ever compare NCR with Delhi. You know what difference it is between "Gurgaon", Noida and Delhi. So you are always up with arms when someone calls noida or Gurgaon to be Delhi. 

One can never mess with a Delhiwalla on this. 

Only you know the true joy of eating ice cream on a cold winter night at India Gate

While everyone else shivers and banter about Delhi Winter, You actually wait for it to have ice cream Because only you know the ultimate joy of having you favorite ice cream on cold winter night at India gate. Well yeah call us crazy, but we enjoy our craziness. 

You take Privilege in calling yourself a Delhiite

Because you don't become a Delhiite overnight, you are born like it. 

You can never Give up on Delhi

Because you love Delhi too much to give up on no matter its Cons. 

Tiramisu Reinvented!

Hi There 

Weekend was here and its drizzling in Delhi.  Perfect ambience for perfect date/ long drive and Sunday brunch.  My first preference is always to go for a movie but since this weekend no movie was there so I decided to go to DU (its being long time Due since I returned to Delhi) and try out a recently opened cafe: Cafeteria & Co. 

Well its newly opened but its demand can be guessed from its long waiting list. We waited for 20 min before we could get a table, But I must say the staff is super polite, courteous and helpful. (A rare sight now a days). So we finally got our table and were absolutely blown off seeing the prices. 

Relax it was a good surprise, as most of the items were below Rs. 150 (yes you read it right only Rs 150!) So it raised our apetite even more.  Well the menu was bit confusing so we turned to the waiter for top recommendations and she suggested us to try out their signature drink- Tiramisu Shake and Bahama Breeze.  

So we ordered it, we also found fried quite different and tempting so we ordered Masala fries with Chiptole Chilli dip. 

The moment tiramisu shake came, it was so tempting that I knew I gonna love it and it indeed was worth every sip. I have never tasted any shake like this before. it was absolutely yummy! 

I must say I was big fan of oreo and snicker shake but they stand now where in front of it. 

It was simply amazing!  

Coming to Bahama Breeze, it was okay in taste, it is basically a Guava juice based mocktail, refreshing but nothing compared to tiramisu shake.  

The fries were full of taste and Favorful. After long time had such awesome fries and the Chiptole Chilli sauce complemented the fries perfectly

After having so. much our foodie self was still hungry for more so we ordered Charred Achari Mushroom Tikka and German chocolate Shake (Pics Below)

The mushroom tikka was good in taste, and I must say the portion size of dishes is also enough for two people however German chocolate shake was a disappointment and like any ordinary chocolate shake with choco chips. 

Cafeteria & Co also has new type of burgers called Beyonce!  which is their star shaped chicken burger, It looked equally interesting but we were too full to try it, So we have saved it for our next visit. 

Overall this place was a delightfull experience and Tiramisu shake was the highlight. I would definitely recommend everyone to try their Tiramisu shake and Enjoy Tiramisu in a different and Yummy Avtar

Thumbs Up to Cafeteria & Co!

Thanks

Goa Look book

Hey guys, I visited goa this December to celebrate my birthday Goa style ( yeah, why should guys have all the fun!)  I was anyway excited as it was my first trip to one of the top most place in Goa, but I was even anxious on what to wear In Goa
Well Goa is all about fashion, beaches and fun. Plus when going to beach places like Goa you have to take something that is fashionable yet comfortable and manageable as you do lot of water sports, trekking, travel so you can't just keep stuff that looks only pretty but hard to manage.
Well after lot of planning I finally managed to gather a beach look for myself and hope it might be of help to you all.

Look 1

Shorts are absolute must and black never goes out of fashion. So you can try out khakee colur hot pants, a net black top and there you are beach ready. I am wearing shorts purchased from flipkart, black net top from Latin quarters, flipflops from bata, hat purchased from goa street shop and sling bang from Thailand.
This look ideal if you plan to go out to explore beaches and sit around in water.

Look 2

 Who said red is only meant for dresses, try pairing red shorts with a white sleeveless top and you are all set to spread colors in water. I am wearing red cotton shorts purchased from jabong, white sleeveless top from flipkart, sunglasses from Zara, sling from Thailand and flip flops from bata.

Look 3

If you are planning to go to a night beach party or a casual club then you can try out a flowing long maxi dress and accessories with a good neckpiece. I am wearing a maxi dress purchased from Delhi janpath market and neckpiece from lifestyle.

Look 4

 A denim short is an absolute must have in your travel bag when planning to go to beach destination. Hence try a denim short with a crop top and enjoy the goa tour in style. I am wearing denim shorts from jabong, sunny yellow crop top from zynk, sunglasses from Zara and flip flops from bata.

Look 5

Lastly a goa look is incomplete without a skirt. Hence try pairing a nice pleated and flowing skirt and match it up with a nice top. You can also wear a shirt over it and tie it up to make a crop top like I did and let your feminine side shine out in goan sun. I am wearing denim skirt from myntra, white shirt from jabong

Hope the look book might help you when you plan to pack your bags to next beach destination.

Thanks

Patanjali Skin Care Products Review

Hi There

Today I am gonna give my review on much in talk brand patanjali. Well Honestly I have always been a loyal consumer of Body shop and Forest Essentials, but off lately, the brands have hiked their prices exponentially ( Blame the Inflation!) and the quality and quantity also seems to be deteriorating by each passing day ( Seems like complacency taking toll over all big brands). So I decided to try out few products of much in talk Brand- patanjali. 

Well I know, its difficult to shit to local brands after using big international brands and blame it to the brand consciousness among people, there is some taboo around using local brands. But then I thought, what the heck of it, lets break the taboos and try it out, anyways spending Rs 60/product ( Yes I mean Just Rs. 60!) to try a product won't harm me anyways even if I didn't like the product.

So I went ahead and bought few products and I simply loved it and its actually a value for money. here is my verdict on following products :

Patanjali Body Ubtan

Product Details:

Price: Rs 60

Quantity: 100 g

It is really great body scrub cum cleanser, it has lot of natural ingredients like almonds, lentil powder, gram flour, mustard seeds etc and is granular in texture.  I used it by mixing with curd and it worked wonders in first use itself. I have been using Body shop olive scrub ( Rs 1500 ) but this product worked even better than that and in just Rs 60! .  It made skin soft and glowing, although I am not too convinced with its effectiveness towards reducing blemishes and skin lightening but its absolutely a great product as a body scrub and cleaner. use it daily and you might see even better results. I absolutely love it! 

Patanjali lemon honey Face wash

Product Details:

Price: Rs 60

Quantity: 60 g

It is made up of pure lemon and honey and is pale yellow in color with a mild fragrance. I simply love this face wash, It is one of the best face wash I have ever used ( trust me I have tried Many!) the best thing about it that it doesn't make your skin dry at all, infact I didn't felt the need to apply moisturizer after using it (May be due to honey in it).   I have used forrest essential's kashmiri saffron and neem face wash before that burns a whole in pocket ( Rs. 1100) and trust me this Rs. 60 Face wash is way ahead of it and had made me its big time fan.

It a travel friendly and you can take it anywhere with you to get instant glow and freshness. 

Patanjali Kanti Lep

Product Details:

Price: Rs 60

Quantity: 50 g

Since I recently came from Hyderabad and weather change took a toll on my skin with seasonal acne. and I wanted something quick and effective. So I bought this product. 

It is  dark brown in color ( like Mud) and has ingredients like sandalwood, Jaefel, turmeric, aloe vera etc.  It is supposed to be applied overnight, but to be honest it has very foul smell ( the only minus point) hence I just apply it for 1-2 hours overnight.  On results I haven't seen any drastic and instant results but it does work when used over a period of week. 

It is a good pocket friendly option for acne relief and overall daily skin scare. 

I have also tried their Neem and aloe-vera face pack, which is again costs Rs 60 for 60 g, and it is good option for daily skin care in summers, although I would still prefer himalayas Neem face pack over it. 

All in all, I am really happy with patanjali products and I spent only Rs 240! on all 4 products ( I can't even get a single product from Body shop and forrest essentials in this Price) and I would highly recommend to try out their products. They work wonder. 

Its true sometimes you have to break taboos to discover something great! So go ahead and come out of brand conscious self and  you will love the outcome, atleast I loved it and price is just a cherry on top. 

Keep loving yourself.

Sultan's Sultanate Falling Down!

So there was much of hype around this movie and media already declared it as this years biggest Block buster before the release and how can I being a movie Buff, miss out on it. So I decided to go for it the moment I heard of it.
I could sense the sensation about movie from the point of booking tickets itself, I have never seen, all halls in Delhi running back to back multiple shows of a movie and all house full on first day itself, this was enough to set the expectation bar to another level of heights.

Although  I had a feeling that being salman's movie it will again be a Dabang style! but still the story line was still very convincing( atleast in trailers!) hence  I went to the movie. Not to forget that, I even compromised on the cinema hall just for the sake of watching a great movie.

But to my disappointment the movie sultan wasn't as grand as it was supposed to be. The movie is way too loong and dragged. The first half is too slow and much like typical salman's Rom Com and Dramas. It lacked the core theme and has way too many songs (not to forget boring ones!) . Then came second half (Sigh of relief!) and I convinced myself that maybe now the movie will take a twist, and randeep hooda's entry did lifted the tempo and few fight sequence managed to hook me to chair, but again the typical Drama took over the feel and overall ruined the experience.

I went to the movie thinking it will be a good competition to movies like "Mary Kom" and "Bhaag Milkha" but Sultan stands no where in front of these Gem.

Though salman did try to come out of it comfort zone and try different JAAT avatar and so did anushka, But it did not came out too well given the lack of Quality in story and direction.

Hence for me Sultan couldn't bring out any extravagant experience and I would rate this movie as 3/5.

It would be good to go to this movie with low expectation and just to enjoy Salman khan movie.

Ever Bake!!

Hi there

I went to this place called Ever bake. It is one of the best bakery in Shalimar Bagh. I went there after a movie in DLF mall.

I ordered following thing:

• Chinese platter
• pizza spiral
• choco fudge pastry
• apple pie
• mango crunch pastry 
• cold coffee

Chinese platter had noodles, Munchurian, fried rice, chilly paneer and 2 pieces of spring roll. over all the platter had wide options in just 200 Bucks! 

noodles and chilly paneer was okayish but munchurian and fried rice were good. Spring rolls were bit tangy in taste.

Coming to pizza spiral, it was like a bread rolled with cheeze and veggies, very average in taste. 

Now having sweet tooth I ordered too many desserts. 

Choco fudge pastry is tastry but too heavy to be eaten entirely. Apple pie was simply yummy but agin too heavy. 

I loved their mango crunch pastry, as it was perfect and light, not too sweet and not heavy. It was simply perfect. 

Coming to cold coffee, I personally loved the cold coffee. being a coffee lover, i crave for good cold coffee and I am glad that after a long time I managed to find a place to have good cold coffee. 

Overall the place is good for evening snacks and serve your hunger. I would try it out again.
