so, cafe de tavern was just a chance discovery for us. the first day we went there was pure luck. on the first day we ordered a liit, whiskey sour, and gunhill special pizza. and we were pleasantly surprised. freshly wood fired pizza. delicious cocktail. and a huge selection for food and drink equally. the host, mr shailendra, is a really polite guy. and is readily available for any questions about the food you may have.
now on to the second time, we went because we had a pleasant first experience. and we wanted to try one of their local specialities, desi kukadi bowl. and obviously, a drink. so we had citrus sangria, which is again a delicious drink and quite refreshing at that. and then the desi kukadi bowl. oh boy! yep, those were the first words to leave my mouth once the food touched my palate. if you are not from the mountains, the flavours will leave you drooling. perfect balance of spicy and sour. then we ordered missionaries' delight. these are deep fried chicken wings in bbq sauce. the first thing that hits you is not the taste but the smokiness of the bbq sauce. again, agreatdish. we did tell mr shailendra to make the wings a bit more first date friendly hehe. and he took it quite positively.
oh and one message to mr shailendra, the pastry was nice touch.
