AKA

I'd never heard of AKA and came across this through zomato while browsing for a brunch venue. Located opposite the Nehru planetarium AKA is clearly a SoBo restaurant that serves classic continental cuisine. 

The large mirrors make the place look spacious while the bright, geometric patterned upholstery matches with the walls, giving the eatery an elegant vibe. It is brightly lit up and the varied colours in the décor, make it feel fun and vibrant.

I opted for the Chandon Sunday Brunch and it was quite a healthy treat. 
The Tapas & Salad spread as well as the Cheese & Charcuterie platter was superb and each one had its unique ingredients and flavours. 


 Watermelon Goast Cheese Olive Dust

 Beet & Ranch Salad

Chives Cream Cheese Blinis With Balsamic Pearls


The Hickory Flavoured Pumpkin Soup was creamy and mildly flavoured and a true healthy treat.

Blueberry Pancake with fresh cream which was freshly made and delicious. 

Among the appetizers I had the Spicy Fish Slivers and 


Pesto Chicken Skewers although they weren't much of a hit at my table.


Moving on to entrées, the Aglio Olio Capellini Verde was okay but slightly bland on the palate. 
The Barrel Chicken with lyonnaise potatoes and pepper infused jus was tender and succulent.  

Seared Filet Mignon with garlic mash and sautéed greens was delectable, with the meat being perfectly well done (upon request) and flavoursome.

There were a variety of desserts though the Chocolate Eclair overshadowed all others. Above all the serving staff as well as the restaurant manager are exceptionally attentive and on their toes catering to every table. Great job!!
