BAKEOLOGY Thane Mumbai Food Review & Photography : Gluten-Free Sugar-Free Dessert Feast

Image
The joy of reviewing HEALTHY YUMMY Desserts is here! Pleased to meet Dr. Kasturi, dentist + nutritionist homemaker who has been experimenting in her kitchen with ingredients such as jowar, bajra, ragi as her dessert-base and jaggery, dates, honey as her sweeteners for binge-worthy desserts minus the guilt. Imagine having a cake with none of that heavy feeling or gorging on nutella that is made of 100% roasted hazelnuts with honey!  She has a lovely menu full of innovative and exclusive desserts and she is continuously experimenting to add new goodies. She can be reached to create personalized desserts as well as hampers for special occasions and delivers all over Mumbai. Recently, my sister and I got an exclusive invite from her to review her Diwali goodie bag and boy, was it a feast!  Remember, her strict policy is of NOT using any maida, butter, sugar, cream and all her goodies are sugar-free + gluten-free. Yet the taste is superb, we did not feel ...

The Clearing House Ballard Estate Weekend Brunch Review : Delicious Diaries Go Healthy

Image
One of the places I will go back multiple times because it is near perfect in everything. Menu = Had brunch last saturday and it had loads of delicious + healthy salads, smoothies, pasta, noodles, burgers, nachos and such dishes on the menu for veg as well as non-veg lovers. Ambiance = Superlative. One step inside and it is like stepping in a parallel dimension. First off, spacious. Second, huge French windows, sun-lit, bright outer seating plus luxurious inner lounge area. Vibrant, special ambiance for spending with friends or even for a romantic outing. Service = Flawless. Top-notch fine dine feel, staff is exemplary and makes one feel at ease instantly. Price = On expensive side, but absolutely reasonable for the quality of food, service and ambiance here. Coming to the star attraction, food itself, everything was excellent and as described in the menu. Freshly made, flavorful ingredients, exotic masterchef level presentation. We tried salads, smoot...

Vegetarian Nutritious Feast At Healthylicious : Delicious Diaries Browse Through Healthy + Delicious

Image
Food that is healthy in every sense of the word = locally sourced, nutritionally rich, devoid of artificial flavors or preservatives or unnecessarily added salt/sugar, AND YET delicious to the core because it contains the basic goodness & taste of fresh fruits/vegetables/mild dressings =THAT is what Healthylicious brings us :) Situated as a kiosk opposite R City Food Mall on 3rd floor, this must be the to-visit destination for all foodies to give our bodies a break from all the fast food and indulge in some much-needed health quota, at very value for money price points and with no prior perception of 'oh health food is so bland/tasteless'. Here we get flavorsome soups, crunchy salads, wholesome sandwiches, filling brown rice meals, cold-pressed juices that are turbo-charged nutritionally. Vegan and Jain options abound on the menu, staff is very helpful and service is quick. Make a point to check out their menu that has been designed keeping all nutritional needs ...

Pizza Waffle Festival At Tea Trails : Healthy Food Festival Review

Image
Beautiful Ambiance, Efficient Service and Delicious Food with Healthy Tea options, what more could one want :) They have a Pizza-Waffle festival going on right now and we heartily recommend checking them out,especially for the pizzas. We tried a number of things - -Matcha Green Tea, having much more antioxidants than simple green tea, this is apparently Japanese specialty green tea,  -Cold Coffee was good but I would like it creamier, one too many ice pieces in there, I liked the dark chocolate hint though, -Brownie Waffle was stupendous, drooled over the combination of chocolate sauce, nuts, garnished with almonds, this one was a decadent feast in itself, -Fruity Waffle had delicious topping of strawberry pulp, bananas, apples which was heavenly but the waffle itself was a bit too hard, if it is softer this would be perfect too, I love the brownie one more and would definitely reorder it next time, -Coming to SUPERSTARS, both PANEER TIKKA PIZZA and MEXICAN P...

The Good Wife Sunday Brunch BKC Mumbai : Healthy Deliciousness Food Review

Image
Sundays are sorted with Sunday Brunch at The Good Wife. Walk in to the relaxed and elegant ambiance on a lazy sunday afternoon,like we did yesterday. This is a place you can come to with a sibling or your significant other or your friends, it is welcoming, contemporary, fun and cheery, all at the same time. Staff is very efficient and service is fast. Sunday Brunch has a plethora of tempting salads + desserts laid out buffet style while a menu for hot made-to-order main course + drinks is handed at the table. From the made to order menu,we tried Creamy Polenta (cornmeal) with vegetables and it was delicious while Spinach Ricotta Ravioli was quite creamy too. It was the salads + desserts buffet actually that completely stole the show. A bevy of healthy & delicious salads, breads, dips and absolutely amazing desserts, I am glad they have not kept 50 dishes out here, it is just 10-12 choicest ones and they are stunning, enough to send me back for 3 helpings! A glimps...

Breakfast Menu Indulgence : NRI - Not Really Indian, BKC

Image
What a beautiful place! Elegant, perfect service, warm staff, beautiful continental ambiance, gives the fine-dine feel from beginning to end! It was a pleasure to be here for reviewing their breakfast menu which has something for everyone, delicious + healthy combo with calories per dish clearly written in the menu. Thanks to the kind Chef who made us try literally everything on the menu (most are vegetarian dishes with some non veg options too)  and I personally recommend - wholesome Multigrain Porridge with Berries, Cinnamon Honey and Cocoa, delicious crunchy Do Pyaaz Mirchi paratha, sweet and drool-worthy Moringa Yogurt with Berries, Nuts, Fruits and Honey, and old fashioned shake with nuts-beware, the shakes have the maximum calories though (like that would deter a foodie like me!) Everything else is really good too, quality ingredients, fantastic presentation, each dish is of international standard and now I will be planning to land here for a lunch or dinner ...
