WHAT'S COOKING?
Quick Lunch
For those pressed for time, Dhaba at The Claridges offers a quick pre-plated vegetarian and a non-vegetarian thali for lunch. You can walk the business talk here over a quick, unlimited meal.
The thalis have a scrumptious selection of kababs, curries, rice, breads and desserts, all served at one go. Open from 12.30 to 3 p.m., a vegetarian thali is priced at Rs.900 while the non-veg one comes for Rs.1100 (taxes extra in both the cases). At its Pickwicks, the multi-cuisine restaurant (open from Monday to Saturday), there is an attractively laid out lunch buffet. The guests can choose from a selection of soup, salads, brads, main course and desserts.
Business Lunch
There is another alternative for the business traveller, at Chutney, The Metropolitan Hotel. Here one can get a wholesome Indian meal that takes under an hour (again quick?) and is not heavy on the stomach too.
You can choose from an array of vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. There are appetisers like Makhmali & Methi fish tikka, dishes like Subz Kalimirch (batons of vegetables tossed with crush black pepper and coriander) and the Chef’s specialty dum ka murgh and follow up with mouth-watering desserts like Sakurewali Phirni. Open from 12.30 p.m. to 2.30 p.m. vegetarian fare is priced at Rs.650 and the non-vegetarian one 750 (plus taxes).
Street Food
Throughout the month of March, 19, Oriental Avenue at Shangri-La Hotel will offer the ever-popular and delectable street food from China, Thailand and Japan. You can take delight in the symphony of preparations from Onigiri, Okonomiyaki to Ma la tang to satays. Open for both lunch and dinner.
