Company : PK,Anie Vishal

Experience - In Bandra AGAIN. Well another of my Bandra sojourn. Its like ive discovered a whole new world of new food. Im so glad i avoided Bandra for so long. The place is done up very nicely. Interesting decor, dimmish lighting. I liked it.
Drinks - Diet Coke, Water, Ice Tea.

Food : Rather expansive menu. We ordered, noodle soup, wonton soup, hot n sour mushroom bun, spring rolls, schezuan potato, singapore noodles. Soups were on the money. I liked mine very much, the noodle soup was kind of blandish, didnt taste the hot and sour. The schezuan potato wasnt what we thought it was. it ended up being very french fryish. Not good. The mushroom bun off the dim sum menu was very very good. The spring rolls were horrible, the noodles were average. I think we messed up coz we were so busy chatting that we didnt really pay attention to what was being ordered. So even though it was dissapointing, i think we would be allright if we went in again and ordered peacefully.

Vista

Rest : Vista
Meal : High Tea
Date : 17/5/2006
Location : Taj Lands End, Bandra.
Company : PK,

Experience - In Bandra again. Couldnt think of a place to go. The coffee shop in the Atrium was completely packed except for some crappy seats. So we went up to Vista. Wasnt very busy but they had a few tables filled. Seating was immediate, as was service.

Drinks - Cold Coffee, Water

Food : Expansive menu which covers a lot of bases. Pizza, pasta, indian, soups etc. We ordered a plain cheese pizza, white bean soup. The pizza was great, highly recommend it, think, crispy, looked like it came straight from new york. The soup was horrible. Like the kind of thing you eat when you are sick. Even then it would make you sicker. They served some bread along with stuff like a dipping thingy made of olive oil and something. Icccky, they should offer some balsamic vinegar

Crepe Station

Rest : Crepe Station
Meal : Dinnerish
Date : 1/5/2006
Location : Bandstand, Bandra.
Company : PK, Anie

Experience - I was promised pancakes. Somehow i found pancakes, but they only offer them at Breakfast (i know its a breakfast thing but come on. have a heart) my fluttering my eyes didnt work either (not that it has before) The place itself is strictly ok, not too many tables, i reckon around a dozen, service is on the slowish side and its not that great in terms of decor either. It was reasonably crowded.

Drinks - Orange Juice, Thums up

Food : They have an impressive menu, for a restaruant their size, A bunch of diff cuisines, soups etc, Which kind of makes you wonder how they really do with the food and consistency. I got a Caprese sandwich which was excellent, my mates got some paneer sandwich, which was good too they said. It wasnt a bad meal at all, the chips were ok too. Its a nicely set up joint but then id have to go there 2-3 more times to sample the rest of the food. Quite frankly Bandra is out of my jurisdiction.
