Treated like Royals - A CFG Showcase at Moti Mahal Delux

The Palace of Pearls like the name rightly says is a beautifully decorated place that speaks volumes about the cuisine that is to be served at our table.Mughalai cuisine emerged in the Mughal empire and the first thing that strikes us about it is the beauty and richness of the food served.

A CFG showcase is always photography,laughter,fun,lots of talking and loads of eating.However, this time, it was more of respect for the food because we all felt like a bunch of royals sitting down for an elaborate meal brought to us by numerous palace servants ( More like the Aishwarya Rai serving Hrithik in Jodha Akbar Scene ;)).We were seated across a huge table with a big bowl of salad staring right at us and it remained there untouched till we finished our meal.

Starting with a not so traditional Ice tea, we had a whole range of starters coming in one after another.Each one wonderfully decorated and served in huge platters was a sight!!The succulent Paneer that melted in our mouths, the amazing Kebabs, the tandoori chicken and so so many more items on the menu and each one of it was worth waiting for.

After being stuffed with starters and a neat glass of Lassi, we had a round of different kinds of rotis and there were some interesting choices.One of them was the Chilly Paratha (not chilly parotta).This one was roti with chilli powder sprinkled over the top and it was simply Yumm!! The gravies were also amazing.. we had veg and non-veg and they were both equally good.

Then came the show stopper - The Biriyani. With tender meat and superbly spiced biriyani rice, it was heaven!! To end our meal, we had the awesome Paan ice cream and Kulfi and they were both delicious.It was the prefect ending to a Royal meal as I like to call it!!!

Moti Mahal stands tall with the tag "Authentic Dining Experience" and without a doubt, that's exactly what you'll feel after your meal here.
