Diwali night drive outside, warranted a quick but sumptuous meal some place. We happened to zero in on Navratna which has been a family favourite since several years. My first visit there myself, but I was forewarned that nothing is bad from the menu.
The five of us had to wait for about a minute or two to get the A/C section upstairs - I will agree it was hellishly crowded, but everything seemed to be moving. Waiters were serving tables non stop, people were quickly finishing their grub and heading out. We made it upstairs and settled down with our order of Bisleri, to glance through the Pure-vegetarian menu and order in. Everyone decided to pick an individual dish to suit their tastes. So we had an interesting concoction of dishes on the table.
The Rava Masala Dosa - Excellent, absolutely perfect in texture and taste both
The Missal Pav - Delightfully spicy and well tempered. Warranted an order of a second round of pav - but absolutely lip smacking
The Idli-Sambar - Served in a bowl, with a generous helping of the Sambhar which was ever so well made and spiced
The Cheese Pav Bhaji - Slightly sweet with the cheese on top, but well-minced veggies tasted perfect with the buttery, soft Pavs
The Szechwan Noodles - Not exactly setting the tongue on fire, but perfectly separate from each other, with well-cooked juliennes of capsicum and onions
All of this, plus a Lime Soda and a Filter coffee worked out to Rs.750 in all.
We decided to pick some ice-creams from the Ground floor - which seemed like the perfect way to end the meal and get out of the A/C as well.
All in all, a perfect place to grab a quick bite, eat some great food and not really burn a hole in your pocket. Definitely will recommend!
