When you head down to Commercial Street for a day-long shopping & craving some good food, after all, running around the narrow lanes, how far can you go to satisfy those hunger pangs? Well, we took a short drive to Fraser Town to enjoy a heavy lunch at Chichabas Taj in Pulikeshi Nagar. This spot came highly recommended by my BIL & he was almost in an insulting tone referred what sort of a foodie hasn't dined here in Chichaba's. Now there is no stopping after you hear this comment and we all {including the BIL & his family} ended up for a slightly late lunch at around 2pm.
The very hungry bunch got seated and quickly ordered what was recommended - tandoori chicken, mutton seekh kebabs, a seer fish fry, Raann Ka Tukde! The mutton seekh kebabs were absolutely delicious, beautifully seasoned, wonderfully cooked. The meat was succulent, & juicy, the whole bunch devoured it in minutes. We decided not to order one more portion as we have already orders too many starters.
Then came my absolute favourite, the tandoori chicken. This one served here is not your regular one loaded with red chilli paste & food colouring. The tandoori chicken was a tasty dish and I loved the fact that it had more pepper undertones blending well with the meat rather than the usual red chilli tandoori masala. The biriyani was made with jeera samba short grain rice, very similar to other authentic places around town. Very aromatic, less spicy with balanced flavours. Loved the brinjal salan served, very different from the usual Mirchi salan.
