So this Friday, we went to this new
place called Cress Bistro.. my mom being a blogger and a very active foodie was
invited to review this place..
Oh I didn't tell much about my mom..
well.. she is a bundle of things.. she is an events person..works with a big
firm into strategy and planning( I don't understand much of it.. but all I know
is she works on some crazy presentations and sometimes takes ideas from me as
well when it is about children related events). My mom is a home baker too and
bakes amazing cakes.. and cupcakes and many more such things.. on weekends she
either takes me out.. or cooks her special meals. She paints..she writes.. she
reads.. but most of all..she is the best mother one could ask for.. and she
loves me a lot..
Ok so now coming back to this place..
Cress Bistro..Its located in GK3, Masjid Moth Market, quite close to our home..
not very far..
When we left from our place, I wasn't
feeling much of a cold.. but then as we settled down in this open restaurant..
the weather started taking its toll on me.. it was really cold, but its always
nice to sit in open spaces..
I don't know much about ordering
food, but I am very good at judging the taste.. so ordering was left to my
mom..
The first starter was Chipotle
Chicken Tikka, which was nice, and tender, but little too spicy.. so after
having one piece.. I could not have it more.. though I liked the taste very
much..
The next was some kind of Chilly
Chicken..with a very different name and also a different taste.. now everyone
in the family liked it except me.. somehow I didn't find it very interesting..
I guess my mom makes the best chilly chicken..
you can see her recipe here..

The third dish was the most pathetic,
it was some Burmese Dumplings.. I love momos and dumplings otherwise but this
wasn't my type at all. These dumplings also had a sweetish gravy..which tasted
like coconut gravy.. and i dint like it at all..
Now coming to the main course..
whatever my family orders, whenever we are eating Indian food outside, Dal
Makhani as a must for me. My mom has started calling me an expert on the same.
We ordered Peanut Butter Chicken..Dal
Makhani and Beliram Meat.
The dal was ok but not so great, that
it would take me back to that place, I like butter chicken but this had an
overdose of peanuts and hence it was disappointing too..the mutton curry was
nice and I had butter naan with some mutton curry and dal.
The last thing of the menu was a
chocolate dessert, some kind of a chocolaty pastry..it was nice but again.. I
think my mother makes better cakes and desserts.
Overall I will rate the place a
moderate 3/5
Waiting for another weekend.. lets
see whats in store..
Till then ta daaa....!!
