Mingle- Hard Rock Cafe, Pune
Hard Rock Café is said to be the grand-daddy of theme-based restaurants. Over the years it’s proved it extends beyond bikes, tattoos and rock & roll- their burgers and merchandize are to die for. Apart from the music and what some like to call the “food of rock”, you now have a new reason to […]
3 Months From Now You Will Love Yourself.
It’s been a year since I started working out. One whole year of blood, sweat and tears. Looking back on the last 25 years of my life, the last year makes me particularly proud of myself. And I owe most of it to exercise. I have always believed in staying fit. Of course […]
Stews of the World- Hyatt, Pune
Rainy days and hearty dinners. Nothing warms the soul more than a comforting stew. Last weekend I headed over to Hyatt Pune for my share of monsoon fix. A rooftop table, a slight drizzle, and a table for two- Pune monsoons are here, and I am making the most of it! For those of […]

Instead of taking a break to find comfort in the pleasures of fine dining, we’re allowing restaurants to rush us through burgers and pizzas and soupy pastas. Have we all lost the will to eat?

Pick Me Up!
Tiramisu in Italian means “Pick me up” And what better way than creamy mascarpone mousse and lady fingers soaked in coffee? (The alcoholic version can be made with rum or kahlua) I do not have words to describe this recipe. I honestly thought this would be time consuming and complicated. I’m out of words […]
A Cheesy Story
When it comes to cheesecakes, I like mine plain and simple; no extra frills. A plain Jane- no whipped cream, no fruits, no jams, nothing. Just a crumbly biscuit base, and a cheesy cake. Once in a while I do like to experiment with flavors too- I’ve had some brilliant raspberry, blueberry and mango cheesecakes […]
