Best Fast Food Joints from the Streets of Pune

When it comes to yummy food options, Pune is not far behind from Mumbai. I have been a regular at Pune and have spent many weekends there coz two of my best friends are from Pune, one of my aunt is from Pune and even my sister in law.

Coming to the best places for fast food in Pune, here are mine and my friend’s top most picks:

1) Marz-o-rin

Marz-o-rin at M.G. Road is the oldest and also probably the most famous place in Pune especially amongst the college crowd. You get the best coffee, shakes, sandwiches and pastries at Marz-o-rin. They also have Italian pastas and other continental stuff and equal vegetarian and non-vegetarian options.

2) Juice World

Best of all stuff fast food at Juice World at East Street. You get the most amazing paranthas, chole bhature, Pav bhaji, etc. and fresh juices, milkshakes, etc. here

3) The Burger Barn Cafe

The Burger Barn Cafe in Koregaon Park is the best place in Pune for burgers, you can’t afford to miss this place if you like burgers.

4) Bedekars Misal

If you like Indian desi spicy ‘misal’, Bedekars Misal at Narayan Peth is the place. Pune being a predominantly Maharashtrian city, misal is one of the specialities there and Bedekars is the master of it!

5) Kalyan Bhel

Kalyan Bhel at Kondhwa is the place for chaat especially bhel, you get oli bhel, sukhi bhel, dahi bhel and so many different kinds of bhel puri here. Plus the variety of dosas, ragda pattice, etc. All kinds of chaats are super yumm here.

6) Corn Meadow

You get all the types of corn dishes on earth at Corn Meadow in Karve Nagar. It’s an all corn restaurant.

7) Kareem’s

If you love rolls, kathi kebabs, etc., Kareem’s at East Street is the place for you, especially for chicken roll lovers.

8) Dev Uncle’s Kitchen

Dev Uncle Kitchen at Bibvewadi is the place for North Indian/Mughlai food. You also get your sarso da saag and makai di roti here. Go for roti basket which includes a platter of all kinds of naans and rotis. Pizzas, Pav Bhaji and juices are also good.

God, I miss Pune and the yummy food. My mouth is watering as I complete this post, so want to go to Pune for 2 days, just to eat :p

Food Review: Skky Restrolounge & Bar,Ramada Powai

SKKY RESTROLOUNGE & BAR: SKKY is Ramada Powai’s signature restrolounge and bar, and one of the first rooftop dining experiences in Mumbai.

Embark on a culinary journey so unique and satisfying that you may just forget about the ambience of lush greenery and flowing waters, the surrounding hills that whistle with cool breezes and the sheer expanse of open skies and twinkling stars above you.

Tantalize your taste buds with a selection of Pan Asian cuisine, Gourmet Pizza, Middle-eastern delicacies and an absolutely divine dessert menu with handcrafted ice-creams, all of it complemented by a superb selection of domestic and international spirits, wines, signature cocktails & sundowners.

The perfect setting for a romantic evening, a celebration with family or office colleagues or to ask her the magic question.

Timings: 5 pm to 1 am
For Table Reservations Call : 022 61998042

Last week I and fiancee went for dinner at the Skky Restrolounge at Ramada in Powai. Its an open restro lounge cum bar where people can just sit and relax and enjoy their drink in the pleasant breeze.

I loved the ambiance and setting. I ordered for a Passionfruit Martini which was just perfect. The y have a tab menu which is super easy to navigate, though its not updated and few things were missing from the tab menu.

We were served the Spicy Veg Bean Curd Soup to start with. I did not like it much, it was kinda ok.

Followed by the Spicy Tofu in Garlic Tomato Chilly Sauce. Loved it. The tofu was soft enough and the sauce was also amazing.

Followed by Kamal Kakdi (Lotus Stem) ke Shaami Kabab served with garlic sauce. They were soft and nice, the melt in your mouth kinds. I loved the garlic sauce especially. It went well with the kababs.

Since they had a dimsum festival going on, we were given 2 pieces each of 3 different kinds of dimsums. Served with the three sauces of dimsums. I really liked 1-2. The stuffing was well cooked and seasoned and it was perfectly steamed.

And the final main course was Braised Green Shao Hsing Wine Noodles, Burnt Garlic Fried Rice served with Wok Tossed Soba Veg. I really liked the noodles. Rice though did not have enough burnt garlic flavour. The Wok veg. were ok. What I did not like is, we had to wait for a long long time for the main course and by that time we did not feel like having much.

But the saviour was the desserts. Amazing ice cream platter and flavours which I tried the first time. Dulce De Leche,Green Tea, Lemon and Paan flavoured ice creams. They were absolutely yumm. Definitely recommend trying out ice creams here.

And I also tried chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream. The brownie was also gooey and perfect. Desserts and the cocktails,mocktails are an absolute hit here!

I liked the fact that they are pretty reasonably priced and are quite economical for the variety and ambiance.

Overall, I would say its the perfect setting and good food. I did not try the pizzas which I should have, maybe next time. The dimsums, tofu and noodles were good. Their Pan Asian cuisine and desserts is what I would definitely recommend.

Have you been to Skky Restrolounge & Bar at Ramada Powai ?

P.S: I was invited for review but that has not affected my opinion as you can read.

Mumbai Bride Diaries: Goa,Bachelorette Pics,OOTD

Hey guys,

Some of you who follow me on facebook, twitter or Instagram, must have seen few of my Goa pics. I did not upload all, coz I wanted to post them on the blog 😀 So, last month, I am and my friends went to Goa for the weekend. We had guys too, but then 3 of my girlfriends are out of India,so it was just me and two other friends..so we did not mind guys. The more the merrier.

Two days were a little hectic as both days,Friday and Sunday, we hardly slept for half an hour or so as it was early morning 5 am flight. We stayed at Santana Beach Resort in Candolim, Goa which is near to Kingfisher Villa. A very nice place and spacious, clean rooms with good breakfast options. And pretty economical too. Also has a private beach area.I would highly recommend this place, its all connecting to all the beaches. We hired a Mahindra Thar and were roaming around in a Thar! Super experience 😀

Since it was still raining then, water sports were shut. We enjoyed food,clubbing,etc though. On Saturday, we went to LPK- Waterfront and on Sunday, Mambo’s. (The weirdest and funniest crowd I have ever seen in a pub, we could’nt control laughing :D)

My outfit on Day 1..

I was made to the weirdest and most embarrassing tasks like dancing on road, randomly getting up and dancing in a restaurant, take a picture with strangers, take a guy’s autograph and what not.(Ahem!) There was a whole list, of which I successfully completed maximum 😀 I also got :ahem ahem: gifts from my girlfriends.

I was also made to wear a sash and floral tiara one whole day 😀 The sash of ‘Bride To Be’ from the time we landed at Goa.

Of course we had the desserts at Brittos all the time! :yumm: I did not like the vegetarian food at Brittos :/ Cafe Sussegado Souza is one place which I recommend for amazing cocktails,mocktails and yumm food. Infantaria for pastas and pizzas.

BlueBerry Cheese Cake and Chocolate Alpine Mousse at Brittos

We went to Aguda Fort just to while away some time in between.
