Dainty Plates of Desi Enamour

The name Bombay Brasserie echoes loud through the classy localities of Adyar, Anna Nagar & Nungambakkam. The latter especially, has an old world charm married to modernity that is exemplified in its architectural design. The memorable picket fence outside instantly evokes pictures and happy memories from bed time story books. Functionally, it also houses the rich and colourful foliage inside that’s indicative of a decade gone by. The ambience indoors is classic in its theme and there is a separate glass house with long window panes and vintage decor pieces that aims to bring the outside inside. The beautiful view of trees, greenage & reflected warm lighting through these panes is like an art in motion.

FOOD TRAILS Their new tasting menu is a mix of deep rooted cultures spanning the remote corners of the States across the country. Each plate brings forth flavours that narrate its own origins. The Aam Pappad Paneer is distinct for its rusty brown colour that looks tantalizing even before it’s plated. Reason the delectable sun-dried mangoes that retains a bit of its sweetness yet lending a punch of tartness. The Paneer is soft, delicate and the addition of the dusted street spices atop this splendid dish makes it a worthy curtain raiser!! The Fiery Thecha Prawns is all about crunch!! The peanut base smeared with spicy Thecha or chutney with a touch of grated coconut as dressing, amps up tang & heat that is absorbed by the glazed prawns in its entirety. It’s simple but the textures are varied, play well with each other and releases juices that make every mouthful a wonderful burst of sea flavours. The saffron smeared Kashmiri Naan Kebab is feast for the Nawabs! The flaky naan bread is so huge that it snuggly houses an equally impressive 25 to 30 cm Mutton Seekh Kebab along with a salad dressing!! The flavourful kebab is so succulent that the different personality traits of its coated masalas all sing in unison. However, the creamy and reviving Doon Chetin or the walnut chutney is the game changer that actually smoothens out the rough edges. Though intended to be relished as a roll, it is to be slowly savoured with mindfulness to get the best out of it. The Lakhori or the yellow chilli, known 20 Discover Chennai | December 2023 | 30
FOOD TRAILS for its pungency and spice levels, is the main hero of the Himalayan Spiced Mushroom. The tandoori grilled mushrooms are firm and pliable enough for the first prod of the cutlery. The earthy flavours are organically evolved with effused chilli notes. It may look similar to the famous Paneer Butter Masala but the silky orange gravy of the Paneer Sirka Pyaaz packs intense flavours of chilli and pickled onions. The Paneer cubes are tender and come alive through this tartness of vinegar. Pairing this with crisp Tandoori Rotis or the Muslin cloth like Roomali Rotis is a meal coordinated sumptuously. The Chicken Tikka Biryani served in a clay pot exudes aristocracy and greatness in every breath!! The basmati rice and the roasted chicken chunks are sweetened with the topping of burnt onions & mint leaves. The diffused captivating flavours trigger the palate, compelling more than just a mouthful. For desserts, the Chocolate Rocky Road has enough drama to spell magic. With a bit of theatre, the dark chocolate mousse brownie slides down like a rapid avalanche on the crumbly bed of cookie and peanuts, engulfing it completely!! The caramel sauce coated vanilla ice cream provides disparity in texture, taste & temperature. Together, they make for a merry mix of extravagance. This place warrants a visit for those also wanting intellectual deliberations interspersed with fun and flavours amidst charming environs. | December 2023 | Discover Chennai 21

TEA TALK
The pre-opening of any restaurant is an exciting phase! There is a lot of planning, co-ordination, trials, training and so much more. In the last 14 years, Imran Khan has been a part of the pre-opening of 14 restaurants and bars! Currently, the Food & Beverages Manager of Welcomhotel By ITC Hotels, Kences Palm Beach, he share his journey and love for the city, over a cup of tea. How is life at the resort? This is a new experience for me. In the city, the days sparks at 7:00 pm. At the resort, everything quietens. After 6 pm, everyone wants to just relax, chat and watch the sun set. Setting up of the ‘Namma Shack’ restaurant... We had a lot of ideas, and finally we decided to serve local flavours. Like Namma Chennai, we named this restaurant, ‘Namma Shack’. What must we try at Namma Shack? Try the thanni charu this season. Also, the Sarakku Sankara, a red snapper! Well, all the cocktails have received raving reviews. Your take on East Coast Road? Take a drive down ECR, there are so many interesting places to dine at. When you are coming with family, just ensure it’s a safe property to spend time at. What is your personal favourite hangout place in Chennai? Marina Beach. I go with my family aft 9:00 pm! What is your favourite Cuisine ? Definitely Chettinad cuisine. It’s been incorporated in the Namma Shack menu. What’s your favourite restaurant? For non-veg food Ponnusamy, for vegetarian, it’s Saravana Bhavan Finally, what come to mind when you say Chennai? Chennai has a booming night life. From idlis to briyanis, you can get anything through the night. There are so many pubs for the party hoppers too. - Jayanthi Somasundaram
