Must recommend/ Try food items: 

Starters:

 

Rajputana Murgh Soola Kebab: This chicken is made with shikhar masala cooked with flaming heat. This is by far the best chicken I have had in recent times. Tender juicy and toothsome. Must must try/recommend.

 

Aam Papad Paneer: Paneer and lotus tossed with special sun-dried mango. Total chatpata, khata meetha ( sweet/sour) .

Gunpowder Potatoes: Grilled baby potatoes with a homemade southern powder tossed with onion.  Definitely going to go try this again. This is a starter and an evening snack.

 

Calcutta club fish fry :  Fried fish desi style with french fries and 2 different dips. Gives you a crunchy and juicy taste.

6 chutney Papad roti: A papad plate with varies of keecha, papad . With 6 different types of dips. From sweet mango chutney to onion dipped in spicy chutney.

Main Course:

 

Coast to Coast Chicken with mixed seed roti: Chicken in 30 spice Malwani masala mixed with seed roti. Spicy, masaledar tasty soft and the roti complimented the gravy much. This gravy can be eaten with chur chur paratha or nan or even tandoori roti. This is a whole meal in itself, which would be enough for one person.

 

Chatka Chole kulche : Chickpeas cooked in the tin the asli punjab way, with chole masala crushed with pomegranate and served with tandoori aloo kulche. The aloo kulche took me back to Amritsar and  wanted to have more, but was too full alrady with so much food. If you want to try the real punjabi food then you should order this.

Bombay lunch home- veg curry and banana leaf rice : This is a vegetarian must must order dish. Veg curry mixed with crispy fried noodles served with rice mixed in coconut mill. The sweet and the masaledar taste gave a deadly combo. The papad given the more crunchy feel. In to totally was in love with this one. 

 

The chicken briyani is also a must try dish there.

Dessert :

Parathe filled with loads of chocolate is my dream dessert. I found my calling. This is called the Grandma’s Chocolate treat. Something you can have any point of time. Do try.

When we were kids and we used to fight to have ice cream sandwich, exactly what happened the other day too., My still and always favourite bourbon ice-cream.

The Puwa/ drinks :

My heart was taken by the Jaipur gulaboo and Mango tango.

The new menu is available in both the branches.

Price for two people would be 1500-2000 approx.

Me time at Hyatt Regency’s SPA!

While everyone is showing you what to wear and how to get dressed this Diwali. I have come up with a better way to relax yourself! 😀 Join me and let me share you an estatic experience I had in Siddh Spa at Hyatt Regency Chennai. 

The  Hyatt Regency Chennai, is one of the favourite hubs. Be it the restaurants or the 365 A.S., There is something about the place which makes you feel comfortable. The service and the food is just close to heart.I was invited for a special treat at the Siddh Spa in Hyatt itself. Must say I was a excited, who doesn’t like to get a special spa treatment.

So when I entered I was greeted by Mr Dinesh Goswami, the Spa director. Very warm welcome, He showed me around the place. They have the largest gym.

I was shown around the spa, the spa has about 5 rooms, Jacuzzi, steam and a huge dressing room. Oh oh the best part they have  a couples room also for all you couples out there.

Couple Room!

I quickly changed and was taken to the relaxing room, where i was told to relax and have some fresh juice and fill a form . About myself, which would help them to give me a better massage.

Relaxation Room!

 Then I was taken  to my room and the first cleaned my leg in some flower petals water and told me to relax while they did so …

P.S: I was already calm and excited, with the care and pampering i was getting. Totally ready to de- stress and forget the world behind . 

So before I talk about my experience let me tell you a bit about Siddh and the kind of treatments, the products are Eco friendly and very safe to use. So here it goes:

The Siddha science is a traditional treatment system generated from Tamil culture. Palm leaf manuscripts say that the Siddha system was first described by Lord Shiva to his wife Parvati. Parvati explained all this knowledge to her son Lord Karthikeya. He taught all these knowledge to his disciple sage Agasthya. Agasthya taught 18 Siddhars and they spread this knowledge to human beings.

Siddha focused to “Ashtamahasiddhi,” the eight supernatural power. Those who attained or achieved the above said powers are known as Siddhars. There were 18 important Siddhars in olden days and they developed this system of medicine. Hence, it is called Siddha medicine.

The Siddh Spa and Fitness Centre at Hyatt Regency Chennai provides the guests and members an oasis of luxury. A first–of-its-kind spa concept, inspired from the 10,000 year old Siddha – Siddh Spa is the complete path to well-being.

Siddha meaning “perfect” aims to tap into the primordial wisdom of traditional medicine and is believed to rejuvenate dysfunctional internal systems to promote natural wellness and re balance the ideal ratio of Vatham, Pitham and Kapham.

The kinds of massages:

1.Vatham

For those seeking peace of mind and inner stillness, the path of “Tranquility” balances ‘Vatham” to offer deep calm.

2.   Pitham

For those seeking to replenish and fortify, the path of “Restore” balances “Pitham” to offer nourishment.

3. Kapam

For those seeking to boost energy and purify the body, the path of “Radiance” balances “Kapam” to offer energy and vitality.

4. Nidra-Vatham

With Jasmine offering a warm deeply relaxing effect, this traditional massage offers a constant flow of long firm, downward strokes.

 

Rates for the above treatments

My experience:

Relaxation at its best. The pressure points were pressed with ultimate perfection. The therapist  worked on every part one by one. She kept asking about me being comfortable and If I was getting the right pressure. The massages was such a stress – buster, must say. I almost slept through the therapy. That’s the best part isn’t it? Going to a whole new place, and getting the pampering you wish for. I was totally energised after the massage and was ready to take the world.  I would definitely give the therapy a 5 on 5 and a must recommended one. Its better then the few spa  I have gone to in Chennai.  

Who doesn’t like to be pampered and get the best out of it. So do not waste time and book your appointment right now. Reasonable and perfect pampering this season time. Or actually any day. 

If you have enjoyed the post, do head to the spa right now and get the best package in town for some me time 😀

The Italian Delight!

The little Italy at Nungambakkam is one stop for the best Italian in town.

Being it vegetarian, I was a little hesitant at first. But the decision to make a stop to this restaurant was worth .

Let me start with thanking Mr Vimal Shah and the excellent Head chef and manager Mr Pradeep  Shetty, for making us feel at home. With the lovely food coming by and the finger licking food making us want more 😀

 

The Food review:

Soup and appetizers :

 

Crema Di Fungi

Pomodoro Limestrone

 

Crema di fungi – the mushroom and cream based cream soup. The creamy texture and the right soft mushrooms, makes you feel warm and comforting. I did try the Pomdoro which is a tomato based one. Definitely for my pick it would be the crema di fungi.

Supreme Nachos

Lets Nacho the supreme style. What a better way to start your meal with this finger- licking filled with cheese and veggies nachos. Lettuce, Tomato, Olives, Jalapenos & Melted Cheese it tasted like a lot of love had been drizzled in. The crunchy freshly baked nachos with the fresh veggies and hot cream cheese is to die for and the best I  have had by far in the city. The salsa sauce also was well blended with oregano and tasted well with the nachos.

Spinaci Salsa

The crispy bread and creamy spinach dip was the second starter we had. The dip is what did the wonders of just melting in my mouth . Yes there are more options available for the dips and breads you can choose from.

Pace Di Potato

Main Course:

Can you believe it? A potato skin fried dish. Yes this is what Pace di potato is.. Loved loved this dish the most from all the three.. Unique in its way, not too fried, not oily just yummness in my mouth. The mayo red chilli dip was the perfect combo to complete the dish. Do do try this dish.. Double thumbs up!

Chefdon Pizza (Special)

This pizza was freshly and specially baked for us, What a delight it was. Being a fan of thin crust pizza, this automatically became my favourite. The veggies and panner did good justice to the crispy pizza. Good quantity for 3-4 people and every bite you take was loaded and mouthful.

Pasta del Barone

Tangy, zingy, spicy Ravioli , was spot on my kinds pink sauce based pasta. The spinach filling inside the ravioli was a great attempt, as it made the pasta more tasty and spicy in every bite. Must must try this one. Double thumbs up.

Risotto di Verdre

Not being a big fan of the risotto but did make me want to try, as the presentation of the dish was bang on. Nicely sprinkled with herbs, and the taste soft and melting in the mouth. The right salt, sauces did make me start liking risottos. Cannot believe I just said that 😀

PRIMAVERA

The aroma of olive oil tossed noodles were the cookie points were taken.Trying to be healthy and still want to eat Italian , there you go best dish to have. This veggies and noodles combo was a win win.Do try this one too.

Desserts:

 

TIRAMISU

CHOCOLATE BOMB

 

Apologies for not uploading the Sizzling Chocolate walnut picture, but yes the soft soft brownie and some lovely ice cream and the hot hot sauce was to die for. The  spongy and fluffy brownie did get cookie points too.. Double thumbs up.

Tiramisu being my favourite dish, did get the first attention. Soft, delicious is the way it should be. Having a sweet tooth makes you want to have more, but the calories you take in do make you run a little longer the next day 😀

The last but not the least Chocolate Bomb, the hot chocolate lava falling when you cut the fluffy portion is the melting point. Yum yum totally yummy, I did finish the whole myself. Guilty as charged. But definitely worth it!

Oh oh before I forget we did try the Mojito aslo which was the refreshing thing to gulp all the flip-smacking food we ate:D

Verdict:

I have by far never ever given a 5 on 5 to any restaurant, But this way did beat it, the service, food is perfect as they say. Thank you for making us want to come again and again. The lip- smacking food and the chef himself making a point to come and look at us enjoying the food was the cheery on the top. Thank you Pradeep sir.

Guys do go and enjoy the lovely italian food at Little Italy and spread the word:D

Ambiance : 4/5
Taste : 5/5
Service : 5/5

For three people it would come up to 1500 apporx.

ADDRESS :112, Eldorado Building, Nungambakkam High Road, Nungambakkam, Chennai

Must have shoes/ heels in your Ambry!!

 

As a shopaholic and having a fetish for shoes I thought it’s a must to have  a post on the love of my life, Just like Carrie Bradshaw 🙂 Writing and shopping just goes hand in hand when you can express all that you feel. So here we go on today’s post..

Must have shoes/ heels in your closet!!

The flats– Flats are a must must have for all girls . They are the most comfortable pair of soles man has ever made. They can be worn anywhere, fits like a snug. These flats could be of any colour, shape. There are some flats which look good but can cause shoe-bites or make your feet rough. Beware of such!  These shouldn’t be too loose fitted also especially in the rainy season they might end up being slippery.

The stilettos: Being short can have it’s pros and cons but I must say it gave  a best opportunity to wear all types of heels. As what i recommend for a long day at work do get  2-3 inches ones, these will not be of any discomfort or pain. The animal print are the perfect example of a long day wear. These could be worn for a party too.

 

Wedges: I have given two options here. The blue strap one is a a commet il faut for my feet. I can wear these day or night. Picked these from Mumbai. The green and yellow were a random pick thanks to the neon era. But i must say love these too much. The are a little bold but if u carry them well, you have the world on your feet.

Pumps: The Silver ones are the cutest pair of shoes I have ever shopped. They are a perfect wear for a dinner or party. Can be teamed with almost anything. Makes you look cute yet sexy in its own way.

P.S: Do make sure that the sizes fit you well and remember your sizes. There can be a change in the size in different brands  so try them before buying. It can get a little difficult during sales. But do make sure your feet like the shoes your buying. After all Happy Feet make you feel happy all day 😀
