Joss me up

Twas the day after new years when not a drink was being stirred. 6 beings crept towards Joss with a foul and fiendish plan to get treated by the fattest of them all.

The menu was long and the atmosphere was warm. The waiter was friendly and the ordering was copious. The Mekong Whisky Fried Prawns I say, The Smoked Salmon Nori Sounds Good, The Oriental Crab Bisque sounds risque and bring on the Teppan Grilled Eastern Veg. The eating began and it was good. The wine from Hardy's said Riesling Gewurztraminer and it was drunk by the bottle. The Jura was 10 years old and that too was sipped. But ahead lay the main course.

The main course, The main course oh what shall we have for the main course. The rain in Spain stays mainly on the plain but what about the course main ? Lead on The Wood Flavored Tender Ribs, Bring out the Grilled Lamb Chops, Lay Out the Prime Tenderloin steak and reinforce with the Tataki of Prime Beef. Prithee how can we forget the Bacon Wrapped Scallops or the Nori Maki Sushi.

That was the main course, that was the main course but then what about the dessert. The dessert, the dessert give the fat one his just desserts. The Hot Kahlua Chocolate Souffle is decent I heard vouched one. And twas twas. Glory Glory Halleleujah The Hot Kahlua Chocolate Souffle is absolute pleasure and sin. How can something like this be a mortal creation ?

The bill was long and the bill was onerous but the food was excellent and the desert extraordinary so the bill was paid.

The food was worth repeating but the bill the bill, the butcher's bill...

Pot full of Pourri

Pot Pourri at Bandra is sort of like the place we never go to because everyone raves about it. Anyway finally did go there and the food frankly was decent. The Chicken wings were done very well (Actual chicken wings mind you not the bloody excuses u get elsewhere). The Salads were nice (Zucchini actually did taste good) and the mashed potato was just done so right. The beef was so so and I believe the beef burger was also good since all I got was the bread. The patty was consumed by a unnamed friend of mine. The Goulash was not as gruesome as it could have been and the lamb was ok. Uncannily enough the sauces were good enough to mask any deficiencies so wonder if Underneath the Banyan Tree learnt from Pot Pourri or the otherway around ? The desserts at Underneath The Banyan Tree were way better. I wonder why all the desserts at Pot Pourri were so chocolate based ????
