Absolutely delicious Northern Indian cuisine: Restaurant Dum Pukht @ ITC Maurya, A Luxury Collection Hotel, New Delhi (4. November 2019)
The Dum Pukht was recommended in many tourist guides and I was not aware that it was in the same hotel I was staying at until the day before. The restaurant serves traditional Northern Indian cuisine which started again with some crispy breads, onions, and a variety of sauces which were perfect to start especially […]
Eating with your bare hands – interesting experience: Restaurant Bukhara @ ITC Maurya, A Luxury Collection Hotel, New Delhi (3. November 2019)
The restaurant Bukhara is apparently one of the best restaurants in New Delhi and it was absolutely fully booked that night. Given I had made a mistake with my bookings I had erroneously booked a table for Monday instead of Sunday evening and when requesting to move it accordingly to Sunday on short notice, they […]
Decent low-cost lunch buffet: Restaurant Mughal Pavillion @ ITC Mughal, A Luxury Collection Hotel, Agra (3. November 2019)
Given I was rather skeptical in trying out a local restaurant (due to being afraid of having major stomach issues afterwards), the guide brought us to their sister hotel in Agra, the ITC Mughal where they offer a “brunch buffet incl. soft beverages” (1’999 INR) with quite an extensive buffet ranging from all kinds of […]
Asian restaurant standards aren’t the same – dining at No. 17 of Asia: Restaurant Indian Accent (2. November 2019)
I was looking forward at dining at number 17 of the world and ended up wondering how the “Indian Accent” is better than “The Clove Club” (which is no. 27 and I had just had lunch at two days earlier in London) until I figured that the “Indian Accent” was number 17 of Asia and […]
Good First class service with a local touch: SWISS First LX146 ZRH – DEL (1. November 2019)
When traveling in SWISS First you are ensured to have a good wine selection. I started my flight with a “Riesling Grosses Gewächs, Kiedrich Gräfenberg, 2017” by Robert Weil from Rheingau which was a perfect start into the flight. Once you were seated, you were served a “parsley créme fraîche with bread sticks” which was […]
Always perfect for cheese fondue for breakfast: SWISS First Class Lounge Terminal E (1. November 2019)
It is always a pleasure to return to the SWISS First Class Lounge in the Terminal E in ZRH airport as you are treated in an amazing way and there is a nice selection of different delicious dishes. This time I went to New Dehli (LX146) and decided to have a “beef tartare (rocket salad […]
Perfect day trip lunch at No. 27 of the world: Restaurant The Clove Club (31. October 2019)
How does the perfect day look like? Fly to London in the morning, have lunch at No. 27 of the world, The Clove Club, and fly back in the evening. That was my program for the day! Definitely something you can and should do. Visiting The Clove Club for lunch is an absolutely memorable experience. […]
Absolutely amazing dishes for dinner too: Restaurant PURO – The Social Club (29. October 2019)
So far, I have only been to the PURO for lunch so I was quite curious to see how the PURO would be for dinner – and I can say it already now, it was a blast! As an amuse bouche, a “whitefish filet with quinoa and wasabi” was served which was somewhat light and […]
