I believe it takes a lot of courage to come out of one's comfort zone (a secure, well settled job) and take the efforts to turn your dream into reality. This is exactly what these two amazing Chefs - Chef Rohan Tiwari and Chef Sujit Gawade, have done by introducing to us their dream cafe - Cafe Rendezvous.
.
I have tried quiet a few dishes here, but let me take you through the ones I really loved and would recommend.
- Cream of Mushroom Soup : Creamy, thick, savoury, rich - this soup is the ultimate comfort food I would go back for.
Chipotle Chicken Tenders : No it does not have the very sharp, tangy Chipotle flavour but its pretty mild and you would definitely enjoy it with a spicy dip.
Tandoori Mushrooms : Definately hot and you experience a total burst of spicy tandoor flavour in each bite.
Meat Overloaded Pizza : The best part about the pizzas here is that the base is made fresh for each order and it is obviously overloaded with toppings and Cheese .
Very Highly recommended : Desserts - Please do not miss the "New York Style Cheesecake" & "Coconut Mousse". Undoubtedly, these two are the best desserts I have tasted till date in Pune.
The Cheesecake is outright the classic one, it's how a Cheesecake should be. Not excessively sweet but just right.
Coconut Mousse was something I have never tried before and loved it in first bite. The presentation is simply superb and it is surprisingly light and airy. It does not feel stuffy like a regular mousse, instead comes with a very generous tender coconut flavour.

Only if a little more efforts and attention were paid to the ambience and comfortable seating, it would be a really great place to hang out. But all in all, it's a good cafe and when you visit do not miss out on these desserts.
