So. Food & More - FILM NAGAR

Satay Kai
6 pieces of chicken marinated probably in chilly flakes, olive oil and then grilled.
The chicken was really tender, perfectly cooked and yummy. The sauce of chilli flakes and olive oil that was served with dish complemented the chicken perfectly.
Worth trying.

Roasted Lamb, sliced and grilled
Chilly Basil and Black Bean sauce for the sizzlers.
This was so scrumptious and filling that I couldn't move after I almost managed to finish it.
The serving looked normal but finishing it was a task.
The French fries served along with the sizzler was crisp on the out and soft inside. Perfect.
The vegetables ranging from broccoli, beans to the pineapple and the rice were so perfectly cooked and the sauce made this dish stand out. Just loved it.

Forever young
A cream based mocktail. Presentation was classy.
A red jelly at the bottom, juice in the middle and cola with ice cream on the top. It looked lovely and tasted equally good. Worth it.

Shirleys temple.
Avoid.
Strawberry crush with sprite or crush with sugar syrup and Soda.
The crush is available over the shelf in every supermarket.

The ambiance was equally good. Just loved every bit of my time here.

The Joint Cafe - DLF Phase 4

A place I've heard good reviews about. My friend was in love with this place and he just made sure he took us there(A brand loyalist)

We enter the JOINT and he leads us. Menu cards are placed in front of us and my companion is puzzled with a drastic change in menu. Disappoitment - strike 1
We ask for a Hangover breakfast and we are served 3 small burgers, 2 sausages and hash browns. One of the burgers served was pork, the other chicken and the last one was beef. 
Taste - amazing.
I can't begin to describe how these burgers managed to tickle my buds.
Perfect!
(We entered this place at 8 pm and the breakfast menu, we were informed would be served only during the day unlike what they used to do previously - serve it when ordered)
Pancakes (Hangover Breakfast)
I can cook this at home. Why would I pay a restaurant money when I can do the same. I guess they were least interred and give it for the heck of it. Not great in terms of taste, I deserve lot better.
Lemonade (Hangover Breakfast)
Same issue.

Strawberry SmoothieAlright it didn't like it much really. Period.
Louisiana BBQ Chicken Roast.I had a sizzler similar to this one at half the price in Goa but then considering the location this price is justified. The dish consisted of 2 pieces of grilled  chicken breasts served in bbq sauce which had black pepper and garlic that I could figure along with vegetables and mashed potatoes. The chicken was Tender and came off easily with the fork  but it wasn't juicy enough in certain areas.
 

The Ambiance was amazing until a man walks in and creates a ruckus when someone touched his chair, when the smoothie served was not cold and tasted like sweet buttermilk, when the AC wasn't cooling as much as it should.

We happened to be there at the time when 2 gentlemen happened to be singing and playing the guitar. Now that is what we call an Awesome Joint! 
A nice place to be.
