when ever i think of going out for lunch during my office hours, monsoondays (new chain of sliceofspice) is one of my favourite spot around kakkanad! one of the most key factor i found was the service, they take pride in explaining their special dishes, serving and also recommends the best. some of their recommendations were: smoky red chilli grill, green smokygrilland green citrus tikka(chicken). they are served separately and also as combos with biriyani rice. the smoky red chilli and smoky green masala marination that i tried were absolutely drool worthy. they were well cooked along with the chicken and also they have introduced a section for fishgrillcalled "amari samak grill". and i chose bluefin trevallygrill(local name: vatta grill). really loved the masala marination over the fish and was perfectly grilled!

from the beverage section, i tried their famous drink called 'pling'. crazy yea? it has got four layers: passion fruit extract, mint leaves crushers, plain ice crusher and little lemon juice in it. it tastes good when everything is stirred together well!
