Vanilla Sky, a new place in HSR. Also a resto-bar, they have good cocktails which are innovative. They have one of the best Dal Makhani, good starters and a fantastic main course. All dishes here are curated by Chef Chettri and team except for Desserts. It is good to see that restaurants nowadays are concentrating on the main course and just not desserts. From starters to the main course, everything was top notch.
Cocktails I had,
Doctor's prescription: Hot brandy with spices. This can cure a cold and cough. This worked well.
After Dark: A beer-based cocktail which was different and good.
Coming to the food,
Starters,
Chicken Stuffed Nachos: Good salsa with small shredded chicken and good old Nachos with some of the Italian spices, exactly like how a Nacho-Salsa would be.
Chicken Lollypop: Well marinated chicken with red chillies and spices with yoghurt.
Tai Pei Chicken: Well, no words for this! Fantastic
Chilly Butter Garlic Fish: Not a fish lover, but loved it.
Grilled Fish in Cilantro
Egg pakora: Egg Bonda what I eat outside, simply delicious.
Veg/non-veg momos: From the presentation to the taste, it was fantastic.
Golden-fried salt & pepper Mushroom: Crispy Mushrooms fried to golden brown with basic pepper and salt, more of a bad bite.
Panner pe,
Paneer Tikka: Slight improvisation is needed. Turmeric infused.
Cottage Cheese Croquettes: Loved it. Panner grated and stuffed in a croquette or a cutlet.
Main Course,
Roti: Made on a Tandoor
Dal Makhani: The best I had in recent times. Thick and perfect
