South Indian, Not so Vegetarian!
Friday, May 24, 2013
Being a foodie, a question I often asked myself “Where do
you get good Non Vegetarian South Indian food in Delhi amongst the numerous
options?”. After enough wandering and gobbling many dishes, there are these two
restaurants that I can't get out of my head, in fact I dream about when I’m
asleep.
Royally Iguru-Zambar
Firstly, “ZAMBAR”, a south Indian restaurant located in
Ambience Mall Vasant Kunj and Ambience Mall Gurgaon. With an extensive menu
and every dish more appealing than the other,
I finally decided to go for some seafood. My feisty favourites would be the
Royalla Iguru, prawns in an Iguru curry of Andhara Pradesh, slightly spicy,
droolingly delicious and with a flavor to-die for and The Nagaur Crab fry, Tamil Nadu style crab, a dry and spicy dish.
The Nagaur Crab fry- Zambar
Both dishes with a pleasing flavor and scrumptious taste top
my charts for South Indian food. Flavor goes best with Appam and Malabar
Paronta. I would rate the food a definite four on five. The flavors are for a
specific palette, but not to be ignored if you’re in the mood to try new
restaurants in town!
The second place on my list does not have an ambiance to
match the cuisine. “GUNPOWDER”, an unassuming place with a simple setting, is located
in the midst of Hauz Khas Village. It stands tall amongst the numerous
eateries. Its understated nature goes a long way in making it one of the most
popular restaurant. It overlooks the lake and has an attractive food menu which
serves delicious and mouthwatering dishes to cater to everyone’s taste. The
deliciously spicy Buff Fry is a favourite and the Juicy Pork Ribs always leave
you wanting for more. It is one of the few places that has left a lasting
impression on me. The consistency in the food is a delight and has never let me
down! Despite the average ambiance, the distinct taste of the food always
leaves you asking for more. Food wise I rate Gunpowder marginally higher than
Zambar. The superior ambience of Zambar makes it a more formal restaurant than
Gunpowder which is laid back and casual.

Definately visiting them both when I visit Delhi. The review is very well laid out Ms. Sawhney. And interestingly, you've covered non beg south Indian food which is genuinely underrated considering the vast range of flavours and methods of preparation.
ReplyDeleteMay I also suggest Karnataka bhavan in chanakyapuri for some mangalorean delight?
Thank you so much! Have heard a lot about this place! Will be going there soon :)
