Cafe that Glitters!!

Had been looking at this place from close to a year now (if not more) but just could not get the time to visit. Whenever I crossed the area i thought that this place needs to be visited. The decoration of the place from outside attracts you to this place. The place is illuminated all over with golden lights outside and looks mesmerizing. It offers you outside as well as indoor seating, outside they have placed number of seats as well the swings. 

Spread across two levels, we sat on the first floor. Ambiance is quaint white colored soothing and has some feel good factor to it. I found it has some calming effect. The menu on offer is mostly Italian and american spreading across Soups, Pizzas, Risotto, Pasta, Burgers etc. We ordered a cold coffee, garlic bread with cheese and a veg pizza, the food was good. Found garlic bread to be bit too cheesy but then that's okay, but liked the pizza and the cold coffee. 

Service was decent, they serve mint water which was refreshing. Other than that cutlery is different which i think is the norm in the cafe business now.

Value for money was excellent as the amount was around 900 for two, pretty reasonable amount these days.

Overall -  Must viist if you like hopping cafes, but go in night because place just looks better with all the glittery lights around.

Masala House - Sundar Nagar

Long Story Short!!

An addition to the Delhi's fine dining space, a place to relax and enjoy the exquisite service. Delectable food with calm atmosphere to unwind and enjoy some family time.

Must Try Dishes
North Indian/ Mughlai dishes have atypical names in the menu. Some of the great dishes we tried were batti paneer tikka, murg do raha, dal makhni, malai kofta. Paneer tikka tasted different, it did not have that weird blandness which paneer tikka usually have in may restaurants. Dal Makhni is something for the fans of dal makhni (coz I am one). Breads are served fresh and crispy.

Service is class apart!!

Yes, the service I must stay is the thing which impressed me immensely. Meticulous service, one server standing near the table at all times to listen to our requests. We were a big group and they managed us absolutely with patience.

Things to look forward to

They provide these really miniature fillers in between to fill in the time between orders and the time we are craving for that sumptuous food. They served a small piece of water melon and blueberry sorbet, both were refreshing. Presentation of their papad is something to note and they are served with three chutney which are yummy.

What wasn't s great
Well I would say if i really need to find a thing that would be the subz jugalbandi which was there version of mixed vegetable (really din't go well with me)
In a nutshell
A must go place if you are enthusiast of North Indian/ Mughlai food. They are placed very much in the hear of Delhi i.e. very near to India Gate and with the advantage of off location you need not wait in long queues.Cost for Two: INR 2000 (approx)Nearest Metro Station: JNU StadiumAddress:  4, Sunder Nagar, Delhi NCR
