Warehouse Café

 

Located in the one of the most hyped places in Gurugram, Warehouse café never fails to impress us! The café just launched a new menu that is a god sent for foodies.

What struck us the most is how beautifully they have created a fusion of Indian and Mughlai to create a new variety of food – in veg and Non – veg.

SO without any further ado, let’s indulge in!

The café has introduced three varieties of freshly brewed German beer – flavours being Apple Cider, Premium and Wheat.

Later, we tried some Veg nachos – loaded with cheese and veggies like tomatoes, onions. Crisp, cheesy and the side dips were all complementing each other.

In vegetarian, we had Paneer Tikka, puffed Kulcha filled with potatoes, Paneer with nachos, Vada Pao and much more! Non-vegetarian dishes were mouth-watering. From mutton to chicken, all the dishes were juicy, served with the right side salad, sauces – they are bound to make you drooool!

We’ll let the pictures do the rest of the talking.

The dishes are amazing, and they offer something different than other cafés. The ambiance is lively, music goes with the mood and the staff is friendly.

Our recommendations – Paneer tikka served with green chutney, chicken wings and for the drinks – you must try the German fresh brewed beers here!

Until next time,

Open House Cafe Birthday Bash

Open house café turns 2! Yes! And they introduced a birthday week from 14th to 16th July 2017 to celebrate their birthday. They slashed the prices as low as Rupees. 2 for a beer to share their love and joy, through these tempting offers.
But wait, there’s more!

Open house café created a wall of memories, where in you take pictures with props provided and pin them up on the wall. What a cute and meaningful way to collect memories to cherish later.

The café introduced a special birthday menu to celebrate and we cannot be more excited. From salads to pizzas, everything tasted sooo amazing, we cannot stop drooling. The pictures say the rest.

So What’s New

Did we mention the launch of some new cocktails that are worth trying!
Try out Summer Sangria, a perfect drink for summers, duh. Served with wine along with fresh summer fruits like pineapples, cantaloupe to give you major Hawaii feels! I enjoyed the flavors that become better as time passes because of the fruits added in.

Next in line are Summer cooler, Mint Papaya Foaminitini, Watermelon Rooska, all good drinks, depending on your likes.

About food, the café serves everything from Indian to Italian to Chinese!
For starters, we had Mughlai Paneer tikka, which I really enjoyed. Paneer was soft, the spices were just the right amount, and the way it was marinated was lovely. Next, we tried Cous Cous salad, tastes a little sweet and sour, served with veggies like carrots, that go well with the dish.

 

Cous Cous Salad

The garlic bread, a cheesy combination served with olives on top, was crisp and delicious to eat!

 

My favourite here is the Veg pizza which had yummy veggies and cheese – just the right amount. What I loved more is how to crust worked all the way to my mouth, the sound of the crunch that will make you swoop in and get some right now. Season them up and relish the taste!

The best part about the food at Open House Café is their presentation. All colours complement each other, in a very sophisticated and balanced manner. The spices, vegetables, colours, sides all fit in perfectly together to give you an amazing taste.

Love the presentation & the colours in here!

My Recommendations

Try the veg pizza and the garlic bread if you enjoy Italian food and combine them with a beer or two. The cocktails are worth trying!
Also, try the wide and delicious range of desserts they serve. Once you are there, ask the waiter to serve you the gulab jamun covered with chocolate and say no more. They will do the rest.

 

Akuri Mini Chow

 

All in all, open house Café is a good place to hang out with friends and your loved ones. The prices are probably not that pocket-friendly but it’s a hundred percent worth it. Can’t wait to be back there to enjoy some music, food and drinks.

Wandering the lanes of Hauz Khas Village

Hauz Khas Village is one of the most hyped places in Delhi. 

The boutiques, the cafés and restaurants, coffee shops, everything about this place has its own charm. The ruins of the fort, the lake adds to a beautiful view at Hauz Khas Village. 

We went on a Saturday – the most popular day of the week! Everybody is their best outfits, clicking selfies, getting drunk and having fun. Its a typical Hauz Khas Village look 🙂 

We entered MyBar Grill, Hauz Khas Village – The interiors have exposed brick work, an open bar, big glass doors overlooking the view outside, nice couches and tables. However, the vibes weren’t as what we were expecting. The music was dull and the air conditioners seemed to be very loud. 

So we left the place, and entered Capsule By Hinglish. 

Since we were quite a number, we were seated on the third and the last floor of the café – more of a private area where you can enjoy drinks and food with your friends. 
We ordered some draught beers with orange slices. The ambiance was lovely and we all enjoyed our time there having nice conversations. 

Capsule has got lovely interiors and work done. The place looks lively and the colours go well with each other. Walls have some posters and funny quotations. The furniture is quirky and cool with cute cushions – all of it makes you feel at home. 

The price range is reasonable – offered 14 Draught beers for 1400 bucks. 🙂 

We left and were wandering in the lanes of Hauz Khas Village when we entered into the lane where there are many shops selling rolls, waffles and snacks. 

We ate some rolls and later ordered waffles at Wafflelicious!

A small place with one guy overlooking the shop. Two waffle makers, some ingredients to add flavours pretty much sums up the place. 

We ordered Nutella Madness for 140 bucks. 

The waffles tasted delicious because Oh! It was Nutella. The guy at the shop was pretty sweet to add ice cream and sprinkles to our waffles. 

For a moment there, I was so lost – I just wanted to eat more and more and forget the kilos that came along! 😀
By the evening we sat by the Hauz Khas Fort and enjoyed the view of the lake and sunset. The day was amazing and relaxing. Hauz Khas Village never disappoints – because you never run out of places to try out! 🙂

Wild Foodventure @ Walk In The Woods

jetpack_photon_reject_https’, ‘__return_true

Walk in the woods, Sector 18, Noida

– an interesting and unique restaurant in the Atta Market. The theme of the place is the wild jungle like and they have even added sound effects of birds chirping all over. The ambiance and the layout is good, kids and young bees enjoy the decor. 

The place also has special arrangement for celebration on birthdays of the customers. The staff gather around and cheer the crowd and birthday song play in the whole restaurant. I found it really nice and created a happy environment among the people.

They serve Indo-Chinese cuisine. However we stuck to Indian cuisine. The soup menu was okay, we ordered Sweet Corn Veg & Man-chow Soup. I would highly recommend Man-Chow soup for Chinese lovers. On the side, we had Masala papads (Aren’t they a necessity? 😉 )
Main Course – We ordered Paneer Makhni and Veg. Jalfrezi. I found the latter to be a little on the spicier side whereas Paneer Makhni was sweet. Overall, the sabzi tasted good with naans and tandoori rotis. 

The price range of the menu is a bit above average but the quantity is good, so its worth the cost. Clearly, Walk in the woods is one of the best places to dine in at sector 18, Noida.

Ratings:

• Food – 4/5
• Service – 4.5/5
• Ambiance – 4/5
• Value for money – 4/5

Until next time

Doodle

Sorry for the long break I’ve taken from the blog.

Sharing my recent work for an architecture competition held in Jaipur, India – NASA. The topic on which I worked is the Tawaiif culture.

The sketch depicts a Rajdasi, a dancer for the kings who was sent to another kingdom to perform and with her position she kills the men who touch her. This tactic was used to weaken the enemy kingdom.

Love the details of the interiors of the palace.

Stop Complaining and Be Happy

​Life is really simple, but we tend to complicate it. Yes, life does have it’s ups and downs and we may face circumstances we never want to. But what’s important is how you handle yourself when you face problems. Instead of sitting and complaining about why you have this or that problem, one should find a solution to it. 

• Happiness is felt from within. Everything you do creates a happy or sad emotion in you. We should realise that being happy helps increase our inner strength, focus and helps spread positive vibes.

• We must learn to be active and optimistic come what may. 

• Be Busy .. Being busy helps us being active and keeps our mind off the daily issues in life..

• Developing Relationships.. People come and people go. But its important to have atleast 5 close relationships with whom you share a special comfort zone. 

As you waste your breath complaining about life.. Someone is breathing their last. Appreciate what you have and make the most of it. Be thankful and stop complaining. Keep smiling, because life is a beautiful thing and there is so much to smile about. (:

Architecture exhibition 2016

Decorations

So as a resident of Delhi, India I was privileged to attend the annual exhibition held in one of the biggest venues for events – Pragati Maidan.

Lots of people from various places had come from different backgrounds.. Builders, architects, designers, entrepreneurs, students etc.. As a student there was so much I learnt there. I visited the exhibition for 3 out of 4 days and was excited looking at every stall present.

 

At a lights and decorations company’s stall where we got to see different types of lightings, lamps, elements to design these.

View from front

The view from beneath of a decorative light

At Greenlam’s store who had one of the best stalls at the exhibition. I loved how interestingly they arranged different pieces of wood to create designs like the one below.

This is a structure made of digital veneer wood which was eye catching to all the visitors present.

Decoration in veneer wood which has digital printing on it. Excellent idea for artistic shops and public places.

A stall at the exhibition.. So aesthetic and elegant.. Lots of visitors were admiring and clicking pictures near the stall.

 

I loved  the vibes there and  hope to keep visiting such exhibitions also In the future!

Daily Prompt: Enthusiasm

 

Enthusiasm can mean so much as an emotion.. It can be happiness, excitement, zeal, Eagerness, passion..

i am going to talk about enthusiasm as a passion.

So, I am an architecture student and I love doing what I do. I love working at the construction classes, studying and understanding plans and sections, learning how to render as a fresher and everything that has been taught fascinates me.

I am glad I chose this field because if I hadn’t followed my dream to be an architect I would have been stuck at some college studying something I don’t want to..

Architecture is my passion and gives me a kick.. It makes me happy and motivated.

I am writing this blog to motivate everyone out there to do something that you want to and follow your dreams cause if you don’t, you’ll end up regretting all your life.

 

via Daily Prompt: Enthusiasm

I Have Dreams

I am a human being

I have dreams, 

Ambitions and desires.

I face hardships and hurdles

I try to flee from them

But I must not flee, 

I must overcome and conquer 

All that’s mine.

And when the storm is over

I won’t remember

How I managed to survived

How I made it through.

But one thing is certain,

Once I walk out the storm,

I wont be the same when you walked in

I must not give up,

I must not flee

For I have dreams.
