Last evening I went to Cilantro,
a restaurant in Trident Gurgaon. It was my first visit to any Trident ever. I have
to say Trident; Gurgaon is an amazing hotel with good restaurants. Built like a
small palace with modern architecture with ancient touch. Structure is built
like dome shaped. When you are inside building, if you look at ceiling that’s when
you realize how much tall the building is. Lush green lawns, with water pool
which looks like a flat black shiny surface from distance. I went at night, it
might seem different during day. Finding a place like this in dry city Gurgaon,
it’s like discovery of heaven. We were
welcomed in a traditional Indian way with ‘Tilak’. Best thing about Cilantro
restaurant was no two tables were placed close. There was ample space for the
movement of guests inside the restaurant. No overhearing of conversations. Best
place if you are planning to surprise your valentine this year.
Hospitality was good. We opted
for buffet and drinks. I chose Cabernet
Merlot Australian Wine (red) I just love red wine. Their drinks/beverages
menu has all kinds of alcoholic-nonalcoholic drinks. Buffet offered from good
range of continental style salads to main course to desserts. Variety was
sufficient to offer you right choices without confusing. Almost all dishes were
named in Greek (at least for me). I can’t remember names of any. Main course
was arranged in metal bowls like the ones we use in India at our home. Main
course was mix of Indian, Italian food. I
am a vegetarian so I loved the chole
and Enchiladas (mexican dish) made in
Italian style. I loved both. I had some Chinese more yesterday like vegetable noodles, Manchurian. There was
also huge variety of non-vegetarian food. What I didn’t like there was that
food was not classified as veg and non-veg with appropriate signs there. I wasn’t
able to click more pictures (I am not a good photographer, sshhh don’t
disclose)
R&W Rating – 4.5/5
R&W Recommendation - Restaurant
is definitely expensive. But if you are looking for some really classy place to
dine and don’t mind paying that this one could be you call. Food is also tasty,
and you will be able to try some international dishes as well.
