Afra Tafri – Brew Up The Madness
A pub where the food menu is curated by Ranveer Brar and the drinks menu is curated by Shatbhi Basu is bound to be good right? It is just not good but brilliant! I am talking about Afra Tafri, Kolkata’s largest Gastro Brew Pub that is slated to open its doors on the 18th of March. Located diagonally opposite British Council Library at Camac Street, Afra Tafri is a grand 12000 sq ft outlet. It is divided into three sections — the main seating area that houses the bar, a large room that can transform into a PDR and an open smoking room. True to its name, the decor is quirky, chaotic and a lot of fun.
Kashmir Ki Curry At Kalash, The Hotel Hindusthan International
We all know that Kashmiri food is heavenly especially for non-vegetarians. Lamb meat is a key ingredient of most dishes and the liberal use of spices like saffron, fennel, cinnamon, cardamom and cloves add warmth and comfort to the curries. But did you know that Kashmiri vegetarian fare is equally delectable? I found that out last week when I was invited by The Hotel Hindustan International to try out the dishes that make up Kashmir Ki Curry, a Kashmiri Food Festival at Kalash. The festival is on till 5th March and is a treat for vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike. Here’s what I loved.
Tales of Truffles At La Cucina, Hyatt Regency
The year was 1992. My parents had just returned from a trip to Europe and along with a bag full of chocolates and other stuff, they also got a bottle of truffle oil, a gift from an Italian family. I was quite young and obviously had no clue about what truffles were but I remember how fascinated I was hearing my mom speak about this mushroom and how the Italians train dogs to sniff them out. Last Saturday, sitting at La Cucina, Hyatt Regency Kolkata listening to Silvia Landucci talk of truffle hunting, brought back all those memories.
Do you know that truffles are considered to be the most expensive food in the world and that the price of the famous white winter truffle can go upto 6,000 Euro per kg? What is so special about this exotic mushroom and why does the world go gaga over truffles? If you want to find out, head over to La Cucina where food guru Karen Anand and Italian truffle specialist Silvia Landucci from Boscovivo have curated a special truffle menu. I was invited by Hyatt Regency Kolkata for a tete a tete with the truffle gurus over lunch and it was one decadent meal for sure!
