Ambience
Lord
of the Drinks is spread across 10,000 sq ft , 2 floors with a bar on each
floor. They also have an al fresco seating on the ground level.
Spacious
is a term seldom used to describe restaurants in Mumbai. Low lighting and music
that gets louder as the evening progresses, makes this the perfect place for a
date or an evening out with friends.
Life’s Good, but it’s
not perfect
We
had a LOT to eat here, which only goes to show how good everything was
Starters:
Corn
& Mushroom Tart shell was as the name suggests, Corn and mushroom, in a
black pepper béchamel, topped with Goat cheese and caramelized onion. Perfectly
crisp short crust shells with a tasty filling.
Yellow
corn & Roasted garlic Dimsum was a unique combination as far as dimsums go.
This intrigued us on the menu, which is why we ordered it. Perfectly cooked
dimsums, with two sauces which added flavour and zing to the dish.
Stir
Fried Mixed veg was a combination of Asian veg, mildly spiced in an oriental
sauce. An interesting bar snack for a vegetarian.
We
found the vegetarian snacks on offer tasty despite our predisposition to
non-veg. We moved onto home ground with…
Dilli
Chili which is none other than the all time favorite chilli chicken done in the
Delhi Chindo style. The chicken was perfectly cooked and came with a side of
fried noodles for crunch.
We
then had the Non-veg Tandoori Platter with a trio of Chicken Tikka, Gilafi
seekh and Fish Tikka with a Kasundi Glaze. Served on skewers, the meat was
cooked to perfection. Great portion size.
Mains:
Three
cheese baked mushroom was Mushroom in a Mornay sauce (a Béchamel sauce with grated cheese) with Cheddar and Parmesan,
baked in a mashed potato ring. If you are drinking, this carb-heavy dish is something you would enjoy. Not a classic Mornay, this was enjoyable, nonetheless.
The
Makhani Paneer Casserole was served with pickled onions and Laccha Paratha. A
simple but rich dish, we were delighted to find a makhani sauce that was not as
sweet as it tends to be.
Mutton
Biryani was a recommendation we couldn’t refuse. And we were glad we didn’t. A
fragrant biryani with a generous serving of mutton, falling apart and perfectly
spiced.
Dessert:
Paan Icecream Martini was Paan spiked Icecream with rose dust, khopra (dry
dessicated coconut) , betel nut slivers, betel leaf and a thandai shot. As
someone who cringes at the very thought of paan, this is the dish we’d go back
for. A perfect end to the meal.
Drinks: It IS the Lord of the drinks, after
all. Great selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Good variety of
both domestic and imported. They have a quarter and bottle service on a fair
number of brands.
Service
wise, the servers are courteous and friendly.
