Other restaurants in Chandigarh

  1. Copper Chimney

    The boti kebab (charcoal-grilled marinated mutton) is spicy, succulent goodness, the tandoori gobi (cauliflower) is clay-oven magic, and the ‘sizzling brownie’ is chocolatey bliss. Chic interior.

  2. Nik Baker’s

    Chandigarh’s top bakery, with fresh bread (multigrain, linseed, ciabatta, sunflower, rye etc), snacks (quiche, mushroom panini, chicken croissants) and pastries (lemon tarts, blueberry cheesecake, brownies). There’s also gelato ice cream (the brownie-fudge is mmmmmagical). Birthday cakes (from Rs390) can be baked with at least a day’s notice. Smaller branch at Sector 9-D.

  3. Barbeque Nation

    The novelty at this wood-esque restaurant is small grills embedded in each table, allowing diners to partake in the cooking of their meals. The food, however, isn’t quite as sexy. There’s a good veg/nonveg buffet (lunch Monday to Saturday/Sunday per person Rs309/450; dinner daily Rs450) which includes BBQ Indian, Chinese and Mediterranean fare.

  4. Orchid Lounge

    This elegant lounge-bar-restaurant is a fancy place to dilly-dally over a bottle of Grover’s Sauvignon Blanc (Rs800) while perusing the ‘Oriental’ menu. Tempting choices include the sweet-and-sour fish with lemongrass and kafir-lime leaves, pad Thai, and broccoli, baby corn and cashew nuts in chilli plum sauce.

    Swagath

    Stellar Indian food with a focus on Mangalorean and Chettinad recipes. Seafood – prawns, squid, crab and a tasty fish gassi (coconut-based curry) – is artfully prepared, and the murgh malai tikka (clay oven–cooked marinated chicken) isn’t bad either.

    Moti Mahal

    Scrummy North Indian favourites; the butter chicken, jeera aloo (spiced potatoes), chicken masala and palak paneer (unfermented cheese chunks in spiced pureed spinach) get the thumbs up. Good variety of piping-hot Indian breads. Branch at Sector 26.

    Mehfil

    Indian, Chinese and Continental food served in comfortable surrounds, with the murg tawa (Punjabi-style chicken) and methi murg (chicken with fenugreek) among the standouts. Spice aficionados may find some dishes too tame.

    Hot Millions Salad Bar & Restaurant

    Best of its city-wide branches and popular for its salad buffet (soups, veg/nonveg salads and desserts, Rs201 per person). The higgledy-piggledy à la carte menu has everything from Tex-Mex and Chinese to Indian and Italian. Laid-back vibe.

    Sagar Ratna

    This all-veg chain-restaurant does South Indian specialities with aplomb, from first-rate dosas (savoury crepes) to satiating thalis. The cool dahi idli (spongy rice cake) is a tummy-soothing yoghurty elixir.

  12. Mermaid Pub & Restaurant

    One aspect of Le Corbusier’s masterplan is artificial Sukhna Lake. Ornamental gardens, a playground and the Mermaid Pub & Restaurant complete the fun. Sunday afternoons can get crowded.

    Oodles of noodles. And when you’re all noodled-out there are ample other Asian creations: dim sums, wontons, Singapore chicken satays, lemon coriander broth and an inventive Thai chicken penne.

  17. Java Dave’s

    Opposite Hotel Mountview, this is a cheery little coffee-and-cake stop if you’re in the area. The ‘toasted coconut coffee’ sounds interesting.
