yes over hyped... 2009-05-31
One sunday morning. One irritating bhaaji(veg) for lunch at home. One click on burrp. "Try Masalacraft" the review said. One growling stomach. One brilliant idea... use all ur "girlie power" to irritate ur bf to drive u down to bandra from thane for lunch. It worked (hah!).
We made our reservations on the phone while driving. The first time i called the man on the other side said " Saab aaaye nahi hain, baadmein unko phone karneko bolta hoon." which never happened. I called up again and i guess the "Saab" was at work. Swiftly he took my details and reserved a table.
Valet parked our car. We enter masalacraft. . No smiles anywhere. Seated at the table near the kitchen door.The open air seating i guess only works for dinner. I looked at the ambience around. Okay, orange walls were interesting but not the people (staff) standing against it.
The waiter came down to our table with a face i make before my bio-stats exams. I looked at him. He decided not to smile and keep his face as blank as my bio-stats answer sheet.
I asked for a fresh lime water and my bf asked for a beer along with lemon chicken and ambi jhinga. The waiter with his blank face came back again and murmurred "ambi jhinga not there madam. makhmali jhinga chalega??" we nodded our heads. A few minutes later the jhinga (230rs) arrived. Honestly, it was too well done for me.. but my bf enjoyed it for some reason. The lemon chicken (145rs) was clearly makhmali chicken tikka with lemon zest ... sadly it wasnt evenly spread and we could taste some parts which had lemon and some which didnt... yes on the same piece!! My fresh lime water was so sweet that i could barely taste any lime there!!
putting all that aside, we asked for the main course. Chicken Lahori (145rs) was good but i could taste the uncooked masalas in there.. not what i ordered! The cheese chilli nan(30rs) which has got such accolades on burrp didnt live upto its expectations either... was tooooo cheesy for me ...
The total kharcha was 879 bucks and a silent bf (who silently was cursing me not letting him use his sunday afternoon doing nothing!)
As we stepped out to locate our car, the valet had dissapeared with our keys... 20 mins after puchtaach this guy appears from no where .... no apologies .. from the valet or the manager whom we talked to abt the nonsense...
Bottomline :
go to this place if u want some "cold" treatment in these hot summer days... -
