Complete mouth watering randomness

This week was truly a toast in the form of treats.
We three roomies had treats among us. Started with Italian, slowed down at Rajasthani-Gujrati, stopped at B-bqu'd delicacies.

Wednesday took us to swanky and posh Little Italy. A veggie restaurant in hilly roads of Jubilee Hills. great ambiance, great menu consisting of a long list of items. Heard that most of the ingredients are imported from Italy. True or not, food was in any case yummy....but since it's pricey, so yummy is a softer word. Better I'd say sumptuous.
Broccoli soup, Mediterranean pizza, one of the best pastas I've ever had. And believe it, pure veg restaurants are also great. Those who don't believe, try this one.

Came Thursday and we were in "Rajdhani" - a Rajasthani-cum-Gujrati resturant in Ameerpet area. They serve a large-really-large thali with lots of starters, main course dishes and sweets.
All unlimited. The service-super fast. In fact if go for first time, chances are you won't realize when you are done and it's time to pay the bill.
So take my advice, don't get overwhelmed. Relax and enjoy the food quite slowly.
and yes, price...quite nominal. INR 199/- per person...inclusive of taxes :-)

Today's Saturday and the third treat was in Barbeque Nation on Road#1 Banjara Hills. Really a nation of b'bques. You barbeque the dishes yourself in front of you. Yes, they keep a small furnace in the middle of the table and place all varieties of things in sticks and hang them there. You are given all kind of sauces to make you own delicacies. The service quality is no less than that of 5 star hotels. Quite prompt and sophisticated.
The main course buffet is also great with some ghar-ka-khana type dishes such as capsicum, paneer bhurji et al. But yes, have patience at main course coz really tempting dessets are lined up next. Price...upscale types. But worth it when you get 5 star kind of hospitality at lesser the price.
