a place that had definitely topped my bookmarks list for many months together. but, now the day had finally arrived for me to head here. i was super kicked and excited.
located in hotel raj park, alchemy is pretty easy to identify. we were welcomed in by some very happy and courteous staff. i was then taken aback by the beautiful ambience as i walked down to alchemy. calm, dim/ partly lit with beautiful ceiling lights is how i would like to describe this place. a perfect place to enjoy your time with your buddies.
they have a vast menu for both food and beverages, most of which we tried and enjoyed. the best part about their beautifully curated dishes will be their in-house sauces and flavours - so unique and great experimentation indeed.
some of the food and beverages that we tried were:
ice-bite:
best mocktail till date. a perfect blend of grapefruit, cranberry and lime, served chill with lemon & mint, and loaded with crushed ice. loved the colour and flavour. it surely complimented all the dishes very well. it was also a perfect coolant and a very refreshing drink indeed.
tandoori chilli chicken:
one of their signature dishes. such tender, boneless chicken with a twist. loved that smoky flavour which added a great punch to the dish.
jamaican jerk chicken:
a jamaican way of cooking chicken where in the chicken is marinated and blended with in-house, jamaican spices. it had a very minty touch to it, different from the regular starter varieties available here. on the whole, this had a perfect flavour & taste, and also came in with a yummy dip.
peri-peri chicken:
soft, boneless chicken served with broccoli and corn. surely the spiciest of them all because of the peri-peri flavour. teared me up a little bit. nevertheless, extremely tasty. scrumptious indeed.
cheesy fries:
something really unique about these fries - their aroma and taste. perfectly done, screaming out brilliant flavours, and topped with a generous amount of cheese. really worth a try! will go well with your glass of beer too!
chicken tikka pizza:
felt a little dry but no compromise on taste. it might have been better on a thinner crust. a good amount of smoky chicken chunks and it was also loaded with cheese.
paneer skewers:
such huge chunks of paneer, so soft and delicate, with a barbecue flavoured sauce, and lots of capsicum and onions. it was super delicious.
blueberry cheesecake:
a dish that transported me to the seventh heaven and stole my heart. absolutely loved every bit of it. such perfection and richness in its flavours and texture. the blueberry compote, fresh and flavoursome was noteworthy too. definitely a melt-in-the-mouth dessert and surely the best in the city.
alchemy has a really good food and beverage variety indeed. their ambience is extremely brilliant as well. adding to this, wonderful service by their staff. what more do we need to have a great experience with our buddies?
go explore for yourself and experience their uniqueness.
