i was attending a panel discussion at radisson blu which was followed by lunch which i believe was from timpani and was a vegetarian buffet.
the menu for the day was elaborate and the food looked really nice too. so here goes what i had and what i would eat if and when i came back to timpani.
lemon coriander soup:
it was just warm, tasted like knorr, was a big let down.
the salad bar:
a lot of greens, carrots, tomatoes, beet root, refreshing salads. also was a basil pesto pasta which was pretty dry though the pasta was cooked well and tasted delicious
papdi chat:
the curd in the chat was sour, end of story.
the roti counter:
rotis and naans, pushed in one corner, i had almost missed it.
kofta:
these are the best koftas i have had outside of home. for these koftas i shall return. beautiful symentrical dumplings which looked like dum aloo, as soon as u bit into it, the flavors could transform you into this lovely food world. it was in green curry and virtually kisses the hands of the chef.
paneer:
the koftas were too good and the paneer although soft and the gravy just perfect could not beat the koftas.
i skipped the rice and dal.
desserts:
ras malai: chilled, yumm, melt in your mouth, yumm.
brownie: hot, a scope of ice cream, topped with strawberry, chocolate or mango syrup. *claps in happiness*
the lunch was satisfying. the kofta will pull me back at least once more.
the plates were extremely heavy and kids might need adult supervision to carry them. the service was like it is in a buffet, non-existent.
decent food. i was happy and so were the ones around me.
