ALL Season’s

Few days back we celebrated my parents wedding anniversary at this place. After a fairly longtime we all were having dinner together in a restaurant, so we were pretty enthusiastic about this.

We selected this place for the occasion, since the place is located near to our house and most of us didn’t wanted to travel to some distant place than.

This place is located along the highway, thus getting in and out of parking is fairly easy.
The ambience is comprised of different areas suitable for different moods and likings. One it has a family section, Second a smoking zone; a section mostly occupied by bachelors, Third a spots bar and Fourth a banquette area mostly used for parties.

They serve both North Indian and Chinese cuisines.

I specially liked Chicken Rahra (Chicken with red spicy gravy) and Chicken Panchwati (Smaller version of Mix Platter). But what disappointed me was Mutton Seekh Kabab. The kababs were half cooked, thus nobody eat it and the dish was wasted.

For a meal of two it should cost you around Rs.500

1000 Oaks

1000 Oaks also popularly knows as T-OAKS.

An amazing place I should say, this was my first visit and I was totally taken way by the culture of this place.

1000 Okas, this place is divided into three sections a garden section, a non-smoking zone and a bar.

The bar section is acquainted with music, thus very popular within teenagers. The garden section is mainly used for dinner purpose.

Here at 1000 Oaks they mainly serve North Indian food, but also deliver variety of kababs.

Here we had Barman’s Picther, a heady mix of vodka, gin, white rum, beer, martini, rose water etc. It was awesome, I suggest you should taste this thing at least once doesn’t matter whether you are a hardcore drunker or amateur juice sipper.

For starters we had Fish Tikka, Shaami Kabab and Murgh Hariyali Tikka. Shaami Kabab taste fabulous, so we order few more of it.


As most people will agree with me saying, this is not an expensive place at all.

It cost us Rs.400 per person only.

Other Services:

They provide banquet services in their premises and are also open for providing catering services at your preferred location.

Blue Nile

Being a Mumbaikar I always keep looking for places where I can have food of similar taste and value.

Today we will talk about a place, which had inspired me to start this Blog. First time when I visited this place, it reminded me of having food at Bade Miya in Mumbai. And I got this thought of spreading information about such places.

This Irani resturant does not have any luxuries ambiance, but the food they serve here does all the magic. Thus this place is occupied all 7 days a week. They serve Mughlai, Chinese and Indian dishes. But their specialty is Chicken and Mutton Biryani.

This was my second visit to the place coincidently with the same friends who introduced me to this place. They too like me always keep looking for new zest wherever they go.

This time you won’t envy me since I am not going to disclose the list of dishes we had at this place. One reasons of not listing the dishes is that we haven’t got a list to mention since the restaurant manager refused to give us the itemized bill; instead we got a bill having only the grand total mentioned. Anyways they might require it for some accounting purpose, which I don’t understand.

So if you want to know about the taste then I assure you it’s similar to one served at Bade Miya.

A meal of 2 should cost you around Rs.350

I say, a diehard non-vegetarian must visit this place at least once.

Meeting Place

After a longtime, got an opportunity to visit this place. This place is bit special for me, as I use to date a lot here with my wife (before marriage).

We have seen this place grow and flourish with time. Initially it use to be a quiet place less known to others, but nowadays its hard finding a place to settle especially on weekends.

Early in my life I realized that dating is a costly affair. Luckily this place was a perfect match to my pocket.

We used to spend hours at this place just sipping soup and tasting starters.

There are very few places in Thakur Complex that serve non-veg food, and this is one of them.

I like this place for two reasons, first they serve good Chinese food and second it’s very economical (a great place for dating if your dating habits are pretty frequent).

On our last visit to this place, we had our favorite Chicken Manchow Soup. For starters we had Ginger Chicken and ended with main course having Butter Chicken and Butter Naan.

For a meal of two it cost us Rs. 220

To summaries I say “ It’s a great place for Meeting, But for me it will always be a Dating Place ”.
