Restaurant Review 2

Place: Marz-o-rin
Cuisine: Mostly baked products, puffs, burgers, pastries etc.
Ambience: 6/10 (cause the seating is sparse, and not the most comfrtable)

If your a Punekar, u'v probably heard of it, even beem there (so there is no real point of this review). Nevertheless, looks small, but is deceptively bigger, serves some excellent pastries, burgers and sandwich fare and has the most desirable location.

Situated right on M.G. Road, it is bang in the middle of the 'it' place of Pune. Sporting the biggest and trendiest malls and stores in Pune, the MG Rd- Camp area is for the swish set. Maarz-o-rin is this bawa-esque joint, spanning the ground and 1st floor of a 1 storey building. The bakery is at the back.

Recommend you go there a bit late on Sundays, so you can revel in the 'Walking Plaza' below and window shop around a lil' bit. And then when you're tired, reach in here and hog on some pastries. The milkshakes are also popular, besides the usual burgers, pizza, sandwiches and cakes. Make it a point to sit in the balcony section. It is extremely cozy, seating for 2 an 4 people. It gives you a view onto MG Road underneath. And if its a sunday, then it's only pedestrians below. Makes a great view to look at the world in all its colour and gaeity pass underneat, while you sit back and watch with someone special, (and a delicious pastry) :)

Restaurant Review 1

Since I'm quite a sloth, a terrible cook and living alone in Pune, I get to eat out more often than most. So, I'm starting this section on my culinary experiences and hope that others might learn somthing from it. Cheers!!!

Place: Flags
Type: Multi-cuisine restaurant
Location: Near INOX multiplex
Ambience: 7/10
Food: If you are diet consious, STOP reading this and go back to your salads and diet coke.
The menu is HUGE. Preferable start your dinner with a drink. I tried mostly Mexican fare, and it was excellent. Special recommendation: The Fusilli Vanquese, pasta with chicken and cheese. Perfect for cheese-heads like me!!! Desert was some Dutch Trouffle, which was outta this world.
Good-to-go? Oh yeah!!!
