Thai and Spanish at Aman -Delhi's best kept secret till now!

Visit the Aman, Delhi for the Thai and Spanish cuisine restt and it will be the closest you would get to what their authentic food is supposed to taste like

So what is there secret sauce?

As we were deliberating on it, excited about having discovered an authentic thai resst in Delhi at last, we were paid a surprice visit by friends who had just had a similar experience at the spanish restt.

We asked her this question and her reply was thats it is definitely the ingredients - "the vegetables in the thai preparation taste as if you are having winter vegetables - the pakchoy is crisp and fresh and some of the vegetable put are otherwise only seen in Thailand! - i couldnt agree with her more. She also tried the Spanish restt and had a similar experience having the Tapas!

We salute the Aman for serving two fabulous cuisines and still being discreet!

Punjab grill - jiggs kalra new restt

Jiggs Kalra much awaited Punjabi cuisine (i.e. Punjab spanning across the two borders) finally opened this weekend.

And yes, Mr Kalra hasnt disappointed - we just tried the two litmus test dishes of a punjabi restt - the kaali daal and tandoori chicken - and would rate it almost at par with bukhara! and the great part is that he has not been afraid to experiment with a liberal menu (salmon tikka an example)

the daal was supposed to be cooked overnight and the amazing mix of flavors reflected that and the tandoori was well marinated

the restt also has an open dining area and will provide a great ambience in winters.

We rounded up with a great phirni!
