I must confess I am constantly on lookout for innovative buffet spreads. Our team has about 30 people, and that means we need to find places that cater to people with different taste buds and preferences, options for vegetarians, customizing the food, a variety of drinks and starters, great selection of desserts, understanding of allergies …
A visit to Edo was long due for, and a meet up hosted at ITC Gardenia by Simonti made this happen. One not so lazy Saturday afternoon saw a bunch of us to experience their newly launched Corporate Luncheon. Edo is inspired by the ancient name of the city Tokyo, here Japanese food isn’t just …
The Ritz Carlton is running their flavors of Thailand promotion, led by visiting Chef Aong. Chef is from Phulay Bay, a Ritz Carlton Reserve, a luxury resort in Krabi, Thailand, and she is revisiting after a stint last year.

The restaurant itself never looked better, beautiful décor, open kitchen, ornate serve ware and elegant wine glasses made quite the setting. A wonderful evening started with the chefs actually demonstrating making a couple of pasta varieties, …

It is not often that we get an opportunity to meet the Chief Winemaker and Director of Four Seasons Wines. We had a nice quiet evening last week meeting Abhay Kewadkar for a tête-à-tête – on his favourite drinks and place. Abhay has worked with wines and vineyards from all over India for many years …
