Fuller’s Griffin Brewery -A London Icon Hiding in Plain Sight

You know those places you drive past for years thinking, “Ah yes, that’s practically round the corner, I’ll go one day”. . . and then promptly never do? Fuller’s Griffin Brewery was exactly that for me. A familiar silhouette from the A4, a comforting "I'm in London" moment, and yet somehow. . . never visited.…

Something’s Brewing

What do Thomas Jefferson, George Washington and Barack Obama have in common? That's right, they're all homebrewers. What is homebrewing, though? It's the art and science of medleying malt, hops and yeast in different combinations to produce a unique elixir that inhibits fear, anxiety and stress and releases endorphins enough to make you text your…

Dial Z-A-G-A for Kadaknath!

For a place that's basically famous for being a watering hole for artistes and art-lovers, Zaga 'Art Cafe & Bar' sure has a lot going on the '& Bar' front. Six floors of artsy stuff going on and just as much going on in the kitchen, too. But that's not what this blog is about. It's…

Cheeky Chinese at Wicked China, Pune

As far as sassy Chinese restaurants go, Wicked China is pretty much out there. Located smack dab at the centre of the recently rebranded Creaticity Mall (formerly Ishanya), Wicked China is hardly hard to reach, and given that it's Yerawada we're talking about, there's no dearth of options to generally fun around...you know...before or after…

A carnivore’s paradise – I’m Lion, now at Baner

Any self-respecting Puneri foodie has been at least once to the family-run, humble establishment that is I'm Lion - Strictly Non Veg (or maybe they should, if they haven't already) because the far corner of Bavdhan isn't the only option for homely seafood and chicken now - they've recently set up shop smack dab on…

Bangalore, prepare to #GETFARZIFIED

#GETFARZIFIED isn't just a hashtag. It's a phenomenon. And a phenomenal one, at that. Probably Massive Restaurants' most generically lovable product, FARZI CAFE is a LANDMARK. A friggin milestone in gastronomy. Every self-respecting foodie worth their salt should have this place on their bucket list! The lens flare is intentional in case you were wondering.The snazzy-looking…

1BHK Wunderbar!

Every bit as super as it sounds, this gorgeous 2 storey space is an absolute treat - the location is fantastic (off the chaotic stretch of BHS but still on the main Baner road), the decor is breathtaking (just as breathtaking during the day as it is at night) and the food is awe-inspiring! 1BHK…

BBQ’d – A Massively Brilliant & Massive Restaurant by MASSIVE RESTAURANTS!

I suppose everything that Massive Restaurants do is larger than life, starting from the name itself. The philosophy trickles down to the exhaustiveness of the menu, the ridiculously pretty decor in their restaurants, the hospitality they treat each patron to...and here's the kicker - ALL THIS costs a very reasonable ₹799 to ₹1149 depending on…

The Chronicles of Gastronomia @Tarsh, Hinjewadi

The office scene may mellow down here but Hinewadi really comes alive at night. Sure, we don't have as MANY loungeworthy joints as KP but we've still got a pretty neat little lineup of our own and we love it! New ones, old ones, those on the street and those on the eighth floor, we…

Great Brews and Great Tours @Great State Aleworks

The likes of Sony and Google had humble beginnings and were started by all of two highly motivated, brilliant people. Make that three in the case of Apple and Mattel. In less than five years from now (give or take), you're going to be able to say that about Great State Aleworks, too! This Pune-based…
