the creative kitchen - radisson blu hotel

i feel it is a bit overpriced.. but what were you expecting while stepping into a 5 star hotel for dinner! thestartersare great but the indian main course lacks something.. "taste" although you're spoilt for choice but i doubt there's anything you're missing out on! continental food is good. the plus point of this place is its dessert section. their cheesecakes are the best in town.. whether lemon/mango/blueberry.. it is fluffy as hell and the sweetness is just right. my favorites are coconut classic, sugarfree panacotta and chocolat gateaux! worth a try once.. but no point in wasting money (6 times i did!) if you don't have a sweet tooth!

we have been visiting tck for almost two years now and we have always had a memorable experience. however, i have been noticing a degrading quality in my last 2-3 visits. in my most recent dinner experience there, i noticed a lot of confusion among the staff. as soon as we were seated we were asked for whether we prefer veg or non veg starters. in a few mins preplatedstarterswere placed on our table with paani puri and dahi chaat (?). thestarterswere stone cold which when pointed out to the waitstaff he responded saying "starters thanda hai nahi, thanda hogaya hai" implying we had left it without consuming for too long. it was shocking to notice that the blazer clad man (i am assuming to be the manager) just smirked at his staff's remark and moved on. through the dinner we had to repeatedly stand to grab someone's attention for basic needs. the saving grace were the helpful chefs and their staff hemlata who was very polite and took care of our needs as much as she could.

food is decent. wide array of choices. flavours are on the blander side. but that is how every 5 star hotel is. ambience is good. prompt hospitality. indulge in thestartersand do go if for some side orders like pizzas as well. deserts are a must have. go for the buffet only if you have the stomach to and if it ain't to heavy on your wallet. otherwise you do have the a la carte to your rescue.

oh! what an amazing buffet.
.
it had about 13 types of desserts , 13 main course items and what not.
dessert included pie , chocolate cake , red velvet cake ,pastries , mousse , cheesecake , shrikhand and many other items.
i believe there were around around 50 items with varieties in salad,startersand main course.

what could have been better :-
the chocolate cake was dry and was probably very old while the orange cream pie was more rigid than expected.
many of these desserts had artificial flavors and pulp in them which was not at all expected from raddison at all.
some of the salads were made complicated while they would have tasted way better if they were made in a much simple way. ex. the baby corn would have tasted way better it would have been steamed and added just a hint of herbs and spices.

what i loved about the buffet:-
huge variety of dishes was just love. the chocolate used in different desserts were totally different and going perfectly with the item. eg. the ice cream tasted so delicious with the chocolate sauce on the side.

finally, i did visit this place, i wanted to go here for so long. i went for their dinner buffet and i must say the varir=ety did impress me a lot and they have so many options to choose from. 
 
for thestartersthere were around 4 options . 2 for veg and 2 for non veg and for non veg there was fish fry and chicken kababs, 
for main coue=rse there were about 10 veg and 10 non veg and 
for the dessert which was my favorite art there were around 3 to 4 indian desserts and about 4 types of cakes and the best dessert was the chocolate tart and the butterscotch cake and the one i hated the most was the orange pannacotta. 

i went here through dineout and did get 50 % off too and that was a jackpot but its a highly recommended place if you love varieties.

recently been here and like everytime food here impresses you, especially the desserts. i opted for buffet which was damn aromatic and delicious right from thestarterswhich included chicken and fish till the paan ice cream that i tried at the last. they provide you with around 13-15 desserts i suppose and amazing options in veg non veg main course. also i took rissoto from the live counter which was also nice along with the chaat.

ambience and there hospitality is excellent.. staff are very polite and serve u food at table ask u about your taste so that they can change for u in therestarters(only in some options). hygiene is perfect. arrangement of buffet is appreciable.. i personally go here to eat there dessert there are more than 40 items of sweet including bakery products.. i go and directly start with the dessert section there cakes and pastries melts in mount other than that they have some kind of festival or theme going in which they install or add up several interesting stalls... chats are good... worth for money 💯❤️

the amazing restaurant in radisson blu. this is in nagpur. they have foods and deserts which are decorated on a table. and the staff is also good. they havestartersand they have live cooking station as well. and this place is also good and the hotel is also good

the creative kitchen as the name says is actually very creative when it come to their buffet. they have widespread lavish buffet with delicious desserts around. just one humble suggestion they could add morestartersin the buffet. rest everything is class apart. service on point. a real fine dine experience. i love their outdoor seating. they have so manu delicacies around but still i always manage to keep room for their desserts. beautiful desserts, handcrafted & just like piece of a art. if you’re looking for some luxury & lavish time they add this place to your bucket list. cheers to tck 🥂 . thanks for serving.

loved the food!!!
i would say non vegstarterswere yummy, veg main course was flavorful & desert was also good.
gajar ka halwa was heavenly ❤️
and especially the staff behavior was very good.every service was well managed.
each of them were well mannered and available every minute for every customer.
it's like they keep the thing "atithi devo bhava" in mind.
so,i would give 4 for food & 5 for service.
keep up this behavior👍👍👍

we opted for nonveg buffet.starterswere ok. the main course had a lot of variety. food was upto the expectation and quite tasty. the desert section was great..a special mention to gulabjam and chocolate pudding. overall a great and satisfying experience.

food was good, ambience the best, crowd around good. the best was the dessert counter with good options of sweets.

only thing that went wrong was the service. agreed that the place was crowded but they have to manage only a fixed no. of tables and that you are at a 5 star and such crowds should be managed by them easily as per standards but they struggled.
so basically the staff can only handle tables with 2,3 or may 5 guests. but families as big as ours (17 members) made them struggle and they were literally ignoring our orders.

the system at the buffet is that the soup andstartersbe served by the staff at the table, this was the only part that made radisson loose the sheen and brought it to levels of other hotels.

this is one of the best buffets in nagpur. it has a balance of good starters, main course, salad and dessert unlike other buffets where a wide range ofstartersleads to average main course.

being members, we love dining here and the taste is always amazing. we sometimes make small special requests like a small caramel pudding or a small piece of mud cake if it’s not on the menu and the staff happily concedes to these requests.

we also generally order a cake from cakewalk on special occasions.

the best thing on the menu is the chocolate mud cake, a picture also posted below.

overall -
taste - 4.5/10
ambience - 4/10
value for money - 4/10 (slightly expensive)
service - 3/10 (service is slightly slow and low on staff servers)

it was a really upsetting experience for me tck ! the staff here was very insensitive about the orders placed even after reminding three times about thestartersin the buffet , thestarterswere served cold . i asked him about the complimentary drink he was unable to give any satisfactory answer . after reminding another staff about the same query we were given the complimentary drink which was included in the buffet . even after planning to go out on a buffet on a holiday the main course was not upto the mark of radisson blue . food like dal makhani was very bland and consistency was very thin which previously was known for good taste . staff in live counters were asked to serve dishes on table as i was carrying my plate in my hand , they refused to do so and insisted me to wait and stand till dishes were getting ready , which after making other staff aware of the problem was made possible to be served on the table . we usually get 15% waved off from the mail bill as we have axis bank card . this time we had asked the staff to do the same which was previously waved off automatically without even informing, the staff insisted there is no offer today even we showing him on internet about the same offer he asked us to wait till he gets opinion from his senior. inspite of taking initiative to solve the problem the staff was busy in serving and catering others and made us wait for ten fifteen minutes , the staff was reminded again he had invariably swiped the card and was stern that there is no such offer . the manager came onto rescue when he was shown on the website of axis bank that such offer existed till september 2018 . he had then nullified the bill and swiped again as he didn't have cash to replace the discounted amount . it was a very sad state of affairs that the hospitality of radisson blu has gone so down . i really wish if they can train their staff well to keep the name of radisson blu as a star hotel .

i'll make it short n simple.... poor service,startersand main course were not up to the mark.. desert was delicious no doubt but its like( naam bade darshan chote)o(︶︿︶)o
