Enjoy Delhi

The number of good restaurants in Delhi and the NCR region has kept on increasing over the past few years. As the number of malls have increased and a larger number of people have got into the habit of spending time in malls, the urge to eat out (especially at good places has increased tremendously). One example of this was this restaurant called Sahib Sindh Sultan (located inside the Ambience Mall in Gurgaon). We had to meet some friends after a period of a year, and owing to some locational issues, we went to Gurgaon to meet our friends. Finding the Mall and the restaurant was incredibly easy, if you are coming from the Delhi side, then as soon as you cross the Toll gate, the mall is located on the left side (you need to get off the highway as soon as you see a proper opening).
The restaurant is apparently part of a group called the BJN group that also runs other restaurants right next to SSS, and is located on the 3rd floor of the mall, close to the ground parking side (the side furthest away from the entrance to the mall; parking to the mall costs Rs. 30).
As you enter the restaurant, the initial look was that it seemed richly decorated, but a trifle dark. However, as you move in, you quickly spot a section of the restaurant where a train seems to be standing, and when you climb in, there are tables inside the train. A nice touch, and made all of us seem a bit happy (and of course the kid was very happy to be stepping inside a train). The seats were comfortable, and we thought that we were in a right place. Then the menu arrived, and it seemed to be a bit high, but this was a classy place (so went the reasoning) so we continued in that place.
And then the starters arrived followed by the food. The place offers a mix of Anglo-Indian, Gujarati, and Frontier food (a mish-mash of different styles). The starters (2 veg, one was a sort of vegetable seekh kabab, the other was a mushroom and other parts dish (and both were tasty); and then we had the non-veg started which was an excellent 5 pieces of fish fry (very tasty)). It was the main course that was even more incredible, the veg palak malai kofts and dal were great. Non-veg chicken biryani was in a good quantity and probably the best biryani I had ever eaten. Overall, the food was very great. If I do not recommend to everyone, it is because for 4 of us, the overall bill came to Rs. 3400 which is high by any standard (consider than 12.5 % was VAT, and 10% was a service charge).

Delhi Metro is currently running through some of the major populations centers of Delhi, running through major parts of West Delhi, North Delhi, and East Delhi. It has taken load off the roads (although how long that lasts is a matter of debate given the number of vehicles getting added to Delhi roads per Delhi). Delhi Metro was started on December 24, 2002, after a long period of planning, and was greeted as a major improvement to the traffic infrastructure of the city. It has helped, and has attracted a large number of commuters on a regular basis (try taking the Metro route from Connaught Place to Dwarka at 6 in the afternoon).
Originally the route of the metro line was on these 3 lines: Line I (Shahdara - Rithala), Line II ( Vishwa Vidyalaya - Central Sectt.), and Line III (Indraprastha- Barakhamba Road - Dwarka) (the Indrapastha and Barakhamba Road stations were added later). The stations that are on this route are:
Line 1 (Dilshad Garden - Rithala): Dilshad Garden, Jhilmil, Mansarovar Park, Shahdara, Welcome, Seelampur, Shastri Park, Kashmere Gate, Tis Hazari, Pul Bangash, Pratap Nagar, Shastri Nagar, Inder Lok, Kanhiya Nagar, Keshav Puram, Netaji Subhash Place, Kohat Enclave, Pitam Pura, Rohini East, Rohini West and Rithala.
Line 2 (Vishwa Vidyalaya - Central Secretariat): Vishwa Vidyalaya, Vidhan Sabha, Civil Lines, Kashmere Gate, Delhi Main, Chawri Bazar, New Delhi, Rajiv Chowk, Patel Chowk and Central Sectt. This is the shortest line as of now, but will go all the way to Gurgaon later.
Line 3 (Indraprastha - Barakhamba Road - Dwarka): Indraprastha, Pragati Maidan, Mandi House, Barakhamba Road, Rajiv Chowk, R.K. Ashram Marg, Jhandewalan, Karol Bagh, Rajendra Place, Patel Nagar, Shadipur, Kirti Nagar, Moti Nagar, Ramesh Nagar, Rajouri Garden, Tagore Garden, Subhash Nagar, Tilak Nagar, Janakpuri East, Janakpuri West, Uttam Nagar East, Uttam Nagar West, Nawada, Dwarka Morh, Dwarka and Dwarka, Dwarka Sec-14, Dwarka Sec-13, Dwarka Sec-12, Dwarka Sec-11, Dwarka Sec-10 and Dwarka Sec-9.

Maspar has recently started ramping up its store network in the Delhi and NCR region, and is becoming famous and talked about for the variety and quality of its products. Maspar makes home furnishings in the area of bed collection, Bath, Table & Kitchen, Fabric and Gifts. Maspar is into production and sales of probably the most unique textile material and with their products being in the premium range. Synonymous with colourful fabrics and simple straight line designs – emphasizing more on texture, they have a wide range of bedspreads, bath sets, table lines and fabrics. Maspar is special because it has redefined that elegant, no-nonsense look. As an example, Maspar’s collection of viscose and cotton bed linen, bedspreads and cushion covers is aptly called Moulin Rouge; the range is a mass of dramatic colour, texture, pattern and vibrant embellishments.
The prices are fairly reasonable. Bedsheets cost between Rs995 and Rs3,000 and the most expensive curtain panel costs Rs1,250. Apart from Delhi and Mumbai, Maspar has branches in Bangalore and Ludhiana.

They do a range of treatments including skin care (acne, shining back skin, unwanted hair removal, making skin glow, etc), anti-ageing signs (facial skin rejuvenation, revitalization of tired eye), hair treatment, and so on.
‘Kaya’ connotes ‘body’ or ‘appearance’ in Sanskrit. A clear and flawless skin is the most attractive aspect of an individual’s appearance. From the website, here is the method used by the Kaaya Clinics:
- A visit to Kaya begins with a skinscription, which is a private consultation with our in-clinic dermatologist.
- The dermatologist analyzes your skin and designs a customized skincare program that delivers maximum benefits.
- This includes services that are ideally suited to your skin type and offer you visible results.
- The result is to visibly improve the way your skin looks, acts and feels.

Moti Mahal Deluxe runs a chain of restaurants in Delhi and NCR, with some of these located inside Malls. For example, there is a Moti Mahal Deluxe located in the Pacific Mall, Crossriver Mall and V3S Mall, all located in East Delhi (Pacific Mall is located in Kaushambhi, just next to East Delhi). Moti Mahal Deluxe provides Indian Mughlai type of food, with rich vegetables and non-veg along with naan, roti, kulcha, etc. There were 3 of us, who had the chance to go to 2 of these restaurants within the space of 3 days. Neither of these 2 serve alcohol.
First went along with the spouse and a friend to the Moti Mahal Deluxe Restaurant located in the Crossriver Mall. The restaurant is located just next to the McDonald’s at the left end of the Mall, and is fairly new. The restaurant seats 52 people. We went around 10:30 PM, so this was probably one of the last restaurants open in that area. As soon as we entered, it seemed like the whole of the restaurant had a smoky air inside (maybe the kitchen was not separated from the rest of the restaurant properly enough). Anyhow, braving the smoke, we sat down and ordered some food. We ordered veg dishes, raita, and naan + Keema kulcha. In addition, there was a drink - jaljeera type. Overall the quality of the food was disappointing, with the taste a bit off. The drink was not good either, missing the tang that you would normally get. Overall, the food was disappointing, and we will evaluate as to whether we would go again. The food cost around Rs. 800 (including tax).
2 days later, we headed over to the Moti Mahal Deluxe located in the V3S Mall, in Laxmi Nagar, next to PSK. This is located on the first floor, just next to the entrance to the movie hall, on the left side. This Moti Mahal Deluxe was a much better experience; we had ordered starters, 2 veg dishes and one non-veg dish. The ‘matta methi malai’ and the ‘murg bemisaal’ were good, and the naan were hot, overall, this was more of finger-licking food and some over-eating also happened. The starter of stuffed potato was great, and after this meal, we really did not try and evaluate the desserts. The food cost around Rs. 1200 (including tax) and included a Mango lassi that was full and heavy.

To get over the Nirula’s experience, we headed to Great India Place again to celebrate. This time we did advance booking for Pind Baluchi but once again we were not supposed to eat there. Just as we reached there, we found out that it was filled with women kitty parties:) It was like sitting in between firing across the border with tambola numbers flying through our ears. Since, it was just not the setting we would have liked, we decided to move on to Rajdhani restaurant nearby. And, this time it was a good move.

Khandani Rajdhani is a chain of restaurants which offer the traditional thali concept. They offer unlimited thalis with different items each day on a reasonable cost. The decor and ambience is calm and serene here - no frills and no fuss. So, do not expect luxury here but do expect wonderful food. The thalis consists food items mostly from Rajasthan, Gujrat and Maharastra. Just as you settle down the server will come with warm water to wash your hands - tradition style. And then you are served with welcome drink - in our case it was skimmed milk and aampanna. Then came the starters (Farsan) - White Dhokla and Aloo Tikki. Next in line was main course - a lavish spread of nearly 2-3 chutneys, 5-6 dishes, 2-3 types of breads, and 2 types of rice. So we had, potatoes with gravy, dal, Rajasthani kadi, bhindi rajasthani style and more in main course dishes. While there were green chutney, imli chutney and mirchi chutney along with roasted papads as accompli. Apart from this they had Rajasthan speciality - Dal, Batti and Churma. In the sweet dish, they offer Aamras, Aam Rasmalai and Moong Dal Halwa.

Overall, a truly wonderful experience - all traditional home style food. Meal for two would cost less than Rs.400 here.

If I could summarize Pind Balluchi at Lajpat Nagar in one line, it would be ‘Good old Punjabi food without burning a hole in your pocket’. Yes, it is cheap, excellent & very tasty food. Once I was part of a party of about 16-17 people there and the host actually paid only around 2000/- for all our food!! I have been there on several occasions and I could say very easily that average per head never goes above 150 bucks. That’s too cheap for good food in Delhi.

As the name suggests, Pind Balluchi, has been made like a Pind (Village). So there is a village chaupal (meeting place), haveli (house), gufa (cave), village well and even a (plastic) tree simulating stylised rusticity. The entrance itself is through a grand haveli-like-gate and the guard there would greet in Punjabi. The whole atmosphere is village like with constant chattering and tempting smells of delicious Punjabi food. The cutlery is also along the theme with big steel plates and large copper like glasses. It surely symbolises the return of Indian cuisine to main stage.

To the food now. It is one restaurant which has very good vegetarian as well as non-vegetarian options to go for. For vegetarians, go for ‘Sarson ka saag’ (curried mustard leaves) along with ‘Makke ki roti’ (corn bread), it is totally divine. Other good dishes to have are ‘Dal Tadka’ (lentils with a spicy tempering) and ‘Butter Paneer Masala’ (a bright colored, creamy and light buttery flavored cheese dish). For non-vegetarians, go for ‘Tangri Kebab’(chicken leg piece marinated in curd, ginger garlic & spices - gone through the tandoor) for starters. Go for ‘Dhaba Meat’ (Indian-style-roadside-eatery-type mutton) in main course, it is really wonderful at Pind Baluci. Accompany it with ‘Mutton Biryani’ (rice and mutton cooked with Indian spices). The mutton biryani is served in a ‘handi’ (Indian style earthen pot) - and it tastes very spicy and tasty. Do not forget to have ‘lassi’ (skimmed curd) with the meal - it is served in large copper glasses, the traditional Punjabi style.

Overall, you will feel satisfied with food at this restaurant and your pocket will not feel light after coming out. One thing to note is that avoid going on weekends - it gets very crowded and you may have to wait a lot. The service also degrades at that time. It is open all days except Tuesdays.
