Being a free
spirit, I enjoy going to restaurants that are enthusiastic to go out of the ‘box’
and not troubled to go off the beaten track. Zorawar Kalra who started Farzi Cafe
has been famed as a dynamic restaurateur for a good reason. His Indian cuisine
is an extreme art form and modern interpretation of traditional Indian food
with engineering precision. Though Farzi Café has many vegetarian options but
this time round they have come up with a spectacular ‘Navratri special’ chef’s
menu! All I want to say is it was a unique and sensational experience that not
many restaurants are able to create. Food should be art, whether it’s vegetarian
or not.
You could probably
put the Buckwheat Tacos Twist in front of anyone, and 9 out of 10 of them would
have no idea that it was a ‘Navratri special’. It tastes so good with the pumpkin
filling and an exciting crunch from the water chestnuts and it does the one thing
that so many dishes fail at–get the texture right. Even the presentation was
impressive – very fresh and tasty.
Would I recommend?
The food was delicious, I have learned to love when vegetarian food is done
well, and outside of your home kitchen, this has been the best ‘Navratri
special meal’, I have had in Delhi. Also, mission matters to me and I have a
lot of respect for the this place, for their dedication to serving wholesome
and delicious food with a twist at affordable prices especially considering
that they’re located in a neighbourhood with an abundance of food chains. If
you go (and I hope you do), just keep in mind that this is a Limited menu and
is only available during the Navratras.

| This warm lauki ka halwa is to die for..replete with panjiri like Nitrogen chilled Singhara and dry fruit crumble |
P.S. I do hope the
chef retains the ‘Sabudana Risotto’ and the ‘Lauki Ka Halwa’ on its regular
menu too!

| If this generation ( That's my mom) is happy with the menu....it's obviously damn good |
FARZI CAFE IS AT DLF CYBER HUB, GURGAON
