‘vikendi - gelato kitchen’ is a vibrant cafe with chick decor setting that provides an upscale dining experience amidst lush green open rooftops and cozy corners in a minimalistic setting. some amazing quirky drinks, delectable food and fast service is the the best part of this restaurant.
we were invited for a blogger’s table and the review for the session is as follows.
mocktails, milkshakes & frappe:
the mocktails were refreshing and perfectly balanced. the ‘watermelon sensation’ had freshly cut watermelon cubes in a freshly brewed juice with a hint of lime and mint. the ‘green slush’ was an interesting spicy twist on the mundane green apple mojito. the ‘virgin colada’ was a perfectly balanced drink with unsweetened coconut milk, pineapple juice and sugar. the ‘seasonal punch’ had a mix of orange, passion fruit and pineapple for a perfect refreshing tropical drink. the ‘banana milkshake’ had basic ingredients and
the ‘brownie frappe’ and ‘oreo frappe’ was rich and creamy.
salads:
the ‘watermelon feta salad’ had sweetness from the cubes of watermelon balanced by the sourness of feta and balsamic reduction and the freshness of rockets and micro-greens. the ‘ceaser chicken salad’ had romaine lettuce, shredded parmesan cheese, crispy croutons, shredded chicken with minced garlic, lime, olive oil and djon mustard dressing.
appetisers:
the crispy crunchy ‘fried chicken popcorn’ served with spicy mayo is a perfect appetiser. the ‘aachari chilli poppers’ were crunchy on the top, extremely cheese and tangy inside, went well with the salad dressing served alongside. the ‘ginger sesame chicken’ had teriyaki chicken served on a skewer with sesame seeds sprinkled all over, served with a fresh salad and honey chilli sauce on the side.
main course:
the ‘chicken cock o doodle’ pizza had bbq cured chicken and smoked paprika layered on a thin freshly baked pizza dough. the ‘veg burger’ had a crispy fried mixed vegetable patties layered with fresh lettuces, onions, tomatoes and pickles in a freshly baked hot bun. the ‘chicken burger’ had smoked chicken tossed in a sweet and tangy chilli sauce layered with fresh veggies and hot buns. both ‘penne pasta veg with pesto sauce’ was incredibly tasty and a must order. the ‘fusilini with chicken and red sauce’ was served piping hot.
desserts:
both ‘almond brownie’ and ‘mocha brownie’ were fresh baked, rich in chocolate and cocoa and sinfully delicious that is too hard to ressist. the ‘berry panacotta’ was a delicious italian dessert, flavoured with almond extract and served with a luscious blueberry sauce.
gelatos:
they serve a wide range of frozen artisan gelatos that are lipsmaking. apart from traditional flavours like vanilla, chocolate, hazelnut, pistachio etc, they also serve a plethora of international flavours like french vanilla, scaladilo choco chip, black currant, butterscotch etc.which must not be missed here.
