HAPPENING
Pure vegetarian experience laced with purity
THERE’s a world of delicacies waiting to be explored in other global cuisines. The lighting is mostly indirect and soft. The pillars are embossed with a special type of green glass that turns blue during night time. Extra care is taken to create a classy, relaxed ambience. Basil recently bagged the Hospitality award for best interiors.
BASIL. The name of the restaurant says it all. Named after the famed Tulsi leaf, the restaurant offers pure vegetarian delicacies from a variety of world cuisines. Located in Banjara Hills (Rd 2), the 130-seater restaurant is a veggie’s delight. Equal importance is accorded to cuisines including Indian, Continental and Chinese. “Most of the standard vegetarian specialty restaurants dish out routine stuff from Indian cuisine ignoring the other cuisines. There’s a world of delicacies waiting to be explored in other global cuisines and that’s what we enable our customers to do” says Mr. Kiran MD of Basil. The exclusive Mocktail bar is the most striking feature at Basil. The one of its kind counter offers a mind-boggling array of signature concoctions made of non-alcoholic contents. “Our Mocktail bar offers a wide range of ice based and cream based drinks to appease the discerning customer who loves to nurse a drink before food. Though all the drinks are purely non-alcoholic, they more than make up for regular drinks” adds Mr. Kiran.
The place which is open for lunch and dinner offers a wide mix of world cuisines dished out by experienced chefs. While the typical corporate crowd converges there for lunch, it is families, couples and even expatriates during dinner time. The décor is very contemporary yet pleasant. The lighting is mostly indirect and soft. The pillars are embossed with a special type of green glass that turns blue during night time. Extra care is taken to create a classy, relaxed ambience. Basil recently bagged the Hospitality award for best interiors.
Talking about the almost 1 year old eatery’s quick rise to popularity amongst the city’s foodies, Mr. Kiran says “Variety, especially from several cuisines is our biggest strength. Customers can actually discover a whole new world in vegetarian food. Through Basil we want to curb the notion that vegetarian food offers limited variety. Our Mocktail bar is truly unique and world class making it a real asset to us. The Dessert section at Basil ensures that all our customers not just start with a delicious meal, but also end it in style. Couple all this with unmatched taste and therein lies the recipe of our success.”
