A place that had been hearing a lot about from friends; but was always avoiding thanks to not being really a music lover, so to say.

Finally Dharmesh a permanent forced me to land up one day a couple of months ago.

Landed up, paid the cover charge and went in, to be hit by a blast of air conditioning and music.

Had a couple of beers, an old fashioned & some french fries & left by 9 pm.

The next time around went when some football match was playing, tried it again.

Skipped the beer, since had like the old fashioned earlier, went straight for it accompanied by some mini burgers and assorted platter of veggie stuff.

Tried their Mojito also, which was good and so now can really conclude:

They make some of the best cocktails in town, finger food is good, whilst may not really be a place to try out for dinner; music & sound is good.

Will definitely recommend and visit again for an old fashioned:)

Frangi ho ya Firangi

One of those places where the wife managed to visit first & give the signal…..Some friends had overseas visitors & all of them decided to celebrate.

Guess they took pity on me, at home with a torn ligament, sent the passat over to pick me up in style. Getting down, was mistaken by two ladies for a singer……accompanied to the level 3, where the greeter & chini mini threw some attitude, but Luck favors….the manager of the place, an old sun n sand friend whisked me & the ladies right in. Bid them good bye & sat with boys & girls to have a time…

Tried out a variety of starters all of them uniformly good, however the sauces, dips were severely lacking, had to constantly ask for refills.

After a gala time, demolishing a couple of bottles of fancy wine(don’t ask the names); whiskey, tequila & what have you, paid(this is one amount that will be imprinted) but WTF someone else’s entertainment bill….however luckily, checked the total…& lo there was a service charge quietly tucked in, so did restrain ourselves on the tip factor.

Overall a good place, where would definitely visit again, but the loud music puts you off, the mix of music does not go with the decor, service needs to be brushed up, particularly on a tuesday.

Will check it out when a buddy Keith vegas plays there.
