The sublime and exotic

A photo tour from my visit to the Sublime House of Tea...

UB City is bedecked in beautiful wedding finery as part of the ongoing Trousseau Week 2014

Sublime House of Tea is present at the Trousseau Week as a Lounge...

At the lounge you can experience their premium range of tea... 

The brew experience is enriched by the live music performance...

Their portfolio of fine tea represents a mix of the classical, the popular and the avant garde...

Seventh Heaven - composed of very select high-grown Nilgiri Black Tea Leaves, infused with natural aromas and freeze dried tropical fruit. The tea thus has a wonderful fruity bouquet and a pleasing aroma.
Pairs well with French Macaroons...

Green Long Ding - a pure Green Tea. Fresh tender tea leaves are carefully processed to minimise oxidation and rolled using a very special process. 

I tried all the tea and loved all. My favorite one is White Tea with Raspberry. White Tea Leaves are the least processed and the least oxidized among all teas...

A tea party can be quite fun...


A big thanks to Malavika and Uzma Irfan for inviting me to be a part of such an informative event...

A beautiful morning in Bangalore

The Tabebuia trees in full bloom adds to the beauty of the landscape.

Nando's - A peek into the Peri-Peri world

Nando's is a casual dining restaurant originating from South Africa with a Portuguese & Muzambican theme. I visited Nando's, church street, Bangalore to sample some of their dishes. 

Peri-Peri is the core differentiator of Nando's. Almost all the dishes here are flavored using the peri-peri sauce. Nando's peri-peri sauce is made from African bird's eye chili and the recipe is a closely guarded secret...


The Altogether Now appetizer has Spicy Mixed Olives, Roasted veg dip, warm pita and Hummus. Hummus with a drizzle of peri-peri sauce was my favorite...


We could choose extra hot, hot, mild or lemon & herb peri-peri. I sampled all of them in the 9 Chicken wings...

 Caesar Salad with cos lettuce, parmesan cheese, Nando's croutons, chicken, topped with Nando's unique caesar dressing...


Chicken Livers and Portuguese Roll...


Espetada Rustica is served on a skewer holder and comes with side dishes of your choice. In this case, fries, spicy rice and corn-on-cob. The taste is as special as the presentation...


Corn off cob is easier to eat...

Cataplana (also the name of the copper utensil) comes with peri peri chicken on a bed of spicy rice, bell pepper and chickpeas...


Nothing is complete without eating the Butterfly Chicken Breast meal. The Butterfly Chicken Breast is a unique A-grade, trimmed off excess fat, 24 hours marinated, flame grilled chicken served in your choice of PERi-PERi flavors. The portion of chicken is butterflied and off the bone. This distinctive flame grilled double breasted delight is served with Crispy Wedges, Fresh side salad and a Refreshing Designer Drink...


The designer drinks - Citrus Bliss and Madeira Red...


 Choco cake - A decadent chocolate cake with layers of home made buttercream...


Creamy cheese cake - Dense baked cheese cake with real cream cheese and crunchy biscuit crumbs...


Even with so much crowd, the staff was very attentive and quick...


Verdict: Peri Peri Good!
