Restaurant Review- Cinnabon and Aunty Anne’s

Restaurant Review- Cinnabon and Aunty Anne’s

If you are looking at indulging in some amazing cinnamon rolls and pretzels, head straight to Cinnabon, because no one does the cinnamon rolls better than them.
I was recently invited for a review to two of their outlets at DLF Mall of India, Noida and DLF Palace, Saket respectively. Cinnabon and Aunty Anne’s, these co-branded outlets operate together under the umbrella brand of Stellar Foods.

The place smells heavenly all the times, you just can’t miss out on the aroma of cinnamon as you even pass the outlet. It triggers you and urges you to try the cinnabon, as they fondly call their cinnamon rolls as.
I tried the chocobon, chocolate version of the regular cinnabon and also tried the classic cinnabon. Both of them were amazing, but I have to say that classic cinnabon wins over the chocobon. Eating the cinnabon is a mouth-melting experience and it makes you forget everything around you and just loose yourself and enjoy the moment.

I also tried some of their salted savouries, like the pepperoni pizza, and pepperoni pretzel, in this case, the pizza emerged out as a clear winner, the pepperoni pretzel was somewhat dry, and I didn’t enjoy it much.

As for drinks, I highly recommend the range of their Chillatas, I have tried three of them and all were simply great. Mochachillata is for the lovers of chocolate, you just can’t go wrong with this, and for people who love fruits, there is Mango Chillata and Strawberry Chillata as well. Don’t think twice, just go for them, they are delicious.

It’s a mere coincidence that after conducting these reviews, I was at the DLF Mall of India for 5 consecutive days for some work and Cinnabon became my most favourite place for breakfast, everyday.
I went on and tried their cupcakes, the pretzel roll, the pecabon and a few other things and I can assure you that the place will never disappoint you.


I have become a fan of this place and I highly recommend it to all my readers, just go for it.

Restaurant Review-Hive Kitchen & Bar

Recently I went to this newly opened place in Green Park Market, called HIVE Kitchen & Bar, and I am really glad I went there. The ambience, the drinks and the food, everything was just amazing.


There was a specially curated menu for us as we went for a review, and all these items were a part of their regular menu as well.
For the cocktails, I tried Cosmopolitan and Caprioska and both of them were good, but I still liked Caprioska better.

Cosmopolitan

Caprioska
The starters included Beer Battered Amritsari Styled Fish Nuggets, Naan Pizza, Crispy Chicken Croquettes and Ceaser Salad. The fish was very very crispy and tasty. The naan pizza was just the way I love my pizza, not a hard crust, but the goodness of a pizza on soft bread. Chicken Croquettes were delectable and Ceaser Salad was good too.

Naan Pizza
For the mains we had, Indian Style Spiced Chicken, Juicy Lamb Burgers and Half Roasted Chicken.
The Indian Styled Chicken was delicious; the red gravy was delectable and can be eaten with both rice and roti.
Juicy Lamb Burgers as the name suggests, were really juicy and a must try.
After the starters and 2 things in the mains, my tummy was really full, I had no place for the roasted chicken, but I did try a bite of it and I can surely say that it was a perfect roast.

Even when I am full, desserts are something I never give a miss. Warm Apple Pie with Vanilla Ice Cream and Red Velvet Cake was served for desserts. The Apple Pie was wonderful, I simply fell in love with it and even the Red Velvet Cake was just perfect, very few people get it right, but this one was really delicious.

WOW! It’s finally going to snow in Delhi all year around at sub-zero conditions..!!

WOW! It’s finally going to snow in Delhi all year around at sub-zero conditions..!!

How would you feel, if I tell you that it is going to snow in Delhi all year round..!! Excited isnt it.. Yesss.. I too was damn excited when I knew that this April, Ski India, the indoor sci-fi themed snow park announced its grand launch at DLF Mall of India, Noida.
It is promoted by Chiliad Procons, one of India’s leading Hospitality and Entertainment group. Ski India blends cutting-edge technology and world-class concepts to impart iconic attractions and beyond belief experiences to its visitors.

A special preview was held for the media on April 22nd, where the founders shared their story about setting it up and also we got a chance to indulge in some specially designed activities at the snow park itself.

The unique Sci-Fi themed tourism project opens its doors to enthral visitors in the National Capital Region with its massive 100,000+ sq.ft property, comprising of 2 floors housed in DLF Mall of India, Noida. This one-of-its-kind entertainment destination offers never-seen-before skiing experience and an array of intergalactic games.

On the launch, Prasuk R Jain, Co-Founder & Managing Director, Ski India said, “The winter themed sports activities seemed untapped, pan-India. Hence, we decided to conceptualize an all year round indoor snow sport resort introducing indoor skiing for the first time in India. We have a strong creative force of imagineers who combine a rich legacy of entertainment with latest technology to infuse life into our dream projects. We pushed the boundaries of innovation to make Ski India the most loved amusement destination of India”

Further, Priyanka Jain, Co-Founder & Business Development Head added, “We are highly thrilled to announce the launch of Ski India in Delhi NCR and looking forward to provide a complete zone for family entertainment. The project is inspired by a Sci-Fi Theme, and is set to deliver the biggest themed snow and ski park of India at DLF Mall of India, Noida”. The concept is to provide the guests a detailed replication of a snowy ski resort with adventurous ski of various gradients ride, tubing, toboggan, bob sledge, planet walkthrough filled with penguins and other species, carousal and flat snow play area.


This unique family entertainment destination is planned to be user friendly by maintaining the internal space temperature of -10°C to -15°C for the freezing snowfall experience.

Ski India also boasts of a never-seen-before sci-fi world theme filled with intergalactic sports. The team of imagineers has designed an illuminating Wormhole Portal at the entry that would transport all the earthlings (patrons) into the unseen planet. Orri&Orran (Ski India’s mascots) pilot the earthlings while the Snow Men guide them through all the intergalactic sports. So the species of this planet just can’t wait to meet the Earthlings.

Right at the entrance, one is first prepared to handle the extreme temperatures inside, the snow park provides especially designed jackets, shoes and gloves to the visitors for protection from cold.

I got all geared up and entered this snow park, the first impression was really very unique, I felt as if I am in some science fiction movie. The ambience was perfect, snow clad ground, snow clad objects, reindeers, and Orri and Orran.

As I started exploring the place, I more and more fell in love with it. The idea of snow, snow based activities like Skiing, Ice Skating, Sledge, were so exciting and now experiencing them right in the summers of Delhi, was a pure bliss.


It surely is a place for families, more people, more fun. Without spilling a lot of details, all I wanna say is, do grab your tickets as soon as the snow park opens its door for public, and experience a new world. The only thing you will not like is coming out of it to the scrotching heat of Delhi.

Restaurant Review- Chili’s @Ambience Mall, Vasant Kunj

Once in a blue moon comes a chance, where you visit an eating joint and end up falling in love with each and everything that the place has to offer. I experienced the same when I visited Chili’s at Ambience Mall, Vasant Kunj. It was truly a wonderful experience and I cannot simply get over it, the food, the ambience, the hospitality, everything was top notch.
Ambience was very comfortable and vibrant, with adequate lighting; somehow I don’t like places that have dim lighting, as I love seeing food in its true colours as much as I enjoy eating it.

Starters:
Classic Chicken Nachos– A simply mind blowing starter, crisp and cheesy at the same time, a must try.

Triple Dipper– A perfect starter that brings three appetizers together, Chicken Crispers, Chicken Wings and Southwestern Eggrolls. I personally found the Chicken Wings a little too tangy, rest both the dishes were delectable. Each of them comes with different dips and the dips certainly enhance the taste, there was an avocado based dip to go with Southwestern Egg Rolls, A Ranch Dip for Chicken Wings and a Chipotle Dip for Chicken Crispers.


Texas Cheese Poppers– Again a great starter, especially for vegetarians, crisp on the outside and creamy on the inside.


Drinks:
Presidente Margarita– This is a Chili’s special cocktail, which has hand shaken Margarita made with Jose Cuervo Especial Reposado, Cointreau and Brandy. The presentation of the drink was excellent and so was the taste.


Cosmopolitan– I also tried the tried and tested Cosmopolitan, a Vodka based cocktail that has Triple Sec and Cranberry Juice. This is too was done perfectly.


Main Course:
Classic Bacon Burger– we tried one with minced chicken patty and other with a beef patty, and I have to say the burgers were just awesome, very juicy and cheesy, messy but amazing.


Californian Grilled Chicken Flat Bread Pizza– Really crispy and amazing pizza, and I found it amusing to eat a pizza, which wasn’t round.


Mix and Match Fajitas– We tried the Trio Fajita, which had grilled chicken, grilled steak and shrimps. It came with flour tortillas and a variety of sauces, like sour cream, salsa and pickled onions and jalapeños. This was truly one of the best I had and is highly recommended.

Fresh Mex Rice Bowl– Now this was the highlight dish for me personally. I simply loved it and I am going back for it very very soon. I tried the grilled chicken bowl and its definitely on the must try list. I really don’t wanna tell the details of it, order it, eat it and find it out on your own.

Cajun Pasta– Frankly speaking I haven’t really liked Pasta, whenever I have tried eating at different joints, I always felt, I make it better, but this one gave me a tough competition, it was truly delicious.


Quarter Grilled Chicken– A very popular dish, that was served on a bed of rice with an amazing dip, though there is an option of choosing other side dishes as well.


Herb Sole Fish– This too was amazing, and was part of their promotional menu, which means its on the menu for about 3 months and still up for grabs, so don’t miss your chance to try out this delicacy.

Desserts:
Molten Chocolate Cake– A simple yet delectable dessert, it was a mouth melting experience.

Chocolate Truffle Cheese Cake– This dessert made me drools over it, it was so yummy. It also features in the must try list.


Overall, the experience was fantastic, and it was made even more special with the presence of two people, Payal Singh, the marketing head for the group and Chirag, who is the head chef for Chili’s, their presence made the entire food experience not just interesting but knowledgeable too, as Chef Chirag kept sharing his little secrets and what goes behind making those delectable dishes.


I give this place a generous 4.5/5 rating and recommend a visit to all my readers. You’ll surely fall in love with the place and the food will make it all worthwhile.
