Flechazo - love at first sight

A lot of reviews, lots of rave, whole lot of planning, big day.... It all finally ended successfully and on a very happy note.

Very newly opened place near Wakad bridge, they are celebrating MediterrAsia. They have different categories of food in their buffet arrangements. Food shots, big O, specials, starters, main course, desserts and the nitrogen ice cream.

So, the occasion was... My birthday! We had booked the table in advance through Zomato and reached Flechazo on time. Being a weekday, we were the first ones to arrive and it wasn't a full house at any point of time.

We were nicely greeted and given a table of our choice. One of the staff members explained us a few things about their different counters/sections.

We started with the food shots. Bite sized stuff on plates moving on a conveyor belt. Green ones for veg and red ones for non veg. The shots were tasty.

Next came the pizza counter, and being the kind I am , went in to din the chef's hat to try my hand there. The guiding chef was quite humble and polite to help me and my daughter with the task. The pizzas came out superb. The adjacent appam counter didn't excite me, but still thought of trying a bite from what hubby ordered from there and neither of us liked it.

We ordered for our veg starters and they flowed effortlessly. The taste was good. They separately got malai paneer, finger fries and smileys for my daughter.

Coming to the main course, the buffer spread was a bit different from the other restaurants serving buffet. Aaj the dishes were flavourful and good in taste. I being a curd fan, enjoyed their curd. I was full by now, but couldn't afford to miss out on the desserts. I tried all the desserts, everything worked well except for a yoghurt mousse and jalebi- it was awful.

Even after all this, I had to go for the nitrogen ice cream. Chef suggested to try the pan ice cream and it was delicious garnished with crushed pan leaf.

The icing on the cake was the birthday celebration. They gave a complimentary cake, did a cute dance and then allowed to cut the cake.

In between, my kid was given a drawing and crayons to colour.

The hospitality was very nice, the food could be improved a bit. But, overall an evening well spent!

Aaoji khaoji is a small restaurant located in Bopodi, Pune. They are on the street connecting Aundh to Khadki and boast about their authentic Punjabi dishes. Their menu has a vast variety of thali options, a whole range of paranthas, snacks, beverages. Their actual outlet is under renovation, so right now they are operating from the adjacent shop. We got ourselves seated on the first floor. They are famous for their thalis. We ordered a aaoji khaoji special tandoori thali. We were too hungry and took nearly 20 minutes for the order to arrive. The presentation of the thali was very good. The thali had 3 garlic naan, 3 tandoori roti, 2 missi roti, rice, salad, papad, raita, gulab jamun, kheer, fruit lassi, chhole, rajma, paneer, aloo ki subzi, tur Dal, Dal makhani, white butter. 3 adults and 2 kids shared it and we were all absolutely full on finishing it up. Everything was perfectly done and it all tasted yummy. All of us enjoyed the food there.

Sukh Sagar restaurant, Munnar

After a long day of sight seeing in Munnar, we were quite hungry. While going back to our hotel (Blu haze resort) from the blossom park, we spotted this pure veg restaurant by the name of Sukh Sagar and decided to stop there. They had North Indian as well as south indian dishes available. South indian dishes being limited though. We ordered a North Indian thali, a few dishes from the south indian cuisine and had a heartful dinner. The waiters were good in taking orders and getting them fulfilled. After dinner, we also ordered for strong coffee and we got nice coffee too. Post the strong coffee, we were settled for the day. We went back to the hotel and relaxed to prepare for the next day.

Pizza Hut, Calangute, Goa

Kids and adults are always in for pizza alike. So when the kids demanded pizza for dinner, everyone was happily ready for it. There was a pizza hut outlet few metres away from our hotel. We dropped in there and got a comfortable round table sofa seating. We waited for our order to be taken. No one was willing to take the order, most of the items.on the menu were not available and the service was very slow. Whatever was ordered the first time, that was it. We did not have the courage to order again and again wait for ages for the order to arrive. The kids were already tired and sleepy. We finished the pizzas and garlic breads and returned back to our hotel. That specific outlet needs to boost up their image and service.
