Five Mad Men is a big name in the Kolkata Food & Pub Industry. So I was super Excited about being there on 15th August.
Location : Sector 5 Omega Building 1st Floor
Safety : At the entrance, we were given Hand Sanitizer and they checked our Temperature. At the time of our presence they sanitized the pub completely, twice. The Cleanliness & Hygiene is properly maintained.
Now About This Gastro Pub, it was a concept of 5 People with their Mad Idea of Creating this awesomeness to celebrate Para Cricket. From Having the largest pub screen to have Renowned Bands Performing, Live Performances, with some good food and good beer, aah it's indeed a happening place.
The whole Pub is sectioned in 2 parts. One part is the Cafeteria, decorated with hanging bulbs, wrought Iron Chairs and Quirky Wall art about Sports. The Another Section is the Bar. There are many games in the Gastro Play Pub. From Cricket Bats, Hockey Sticks, Jerseys, Cards, Skateboards hanging from the wall, to Billiard Table, Carrom, Foosball, Hand Soccer etc, perfect place for those who love sports.
Now Let's come to the Food we had,
We tried,
• Mista Salad
• Grilled Bhetki Skewers
• Cheesy Galangal Flavoured Corn cakes
• Stir Fried Pork Sausage
• Beer Batter Calamari
• Bourbon Flamed Chicken Wings
• Thukpa
• Vegetable Creole Burger
• Minced Lamb Burger
• Peri Peri Veg Pizza
Now I personally loved 4 Of This Dishes,
|| Beer Batter Calamari ||
It was my first time having Calamari (a type of Squids), and I have to say this was an amazing experience. Calamari Rings dipped in Beer batter and 5 spices, and then deep fried to beautiful crispy fries, served with green chutney. Recommended!!
|| Bourbon Flamed Chicken Wings ||
Another beautiful classic dish with a modern twist. Chicken Wings, tossed in Bourbon Whiskey Sauce and then Flamed to give it the beautiful sour and sweet flavour. A beautiful view to watch and an amazing dish to have.
|| Thukpa ||
Thukpa is one of my Favourite from Tibetan Cuisine. A perfect Thukpa is the combination of Noodle Soup with veggies and meat(optional). Spiced & Flavourful Thukpa with minced meat and shredded veggies, it was so goood.
|| Peri Peri Veg Pizza ||
I am a huge Pizza Lover, and I have always been accustomed with the idea of round Pizza, though here we got a Square shaped Pizza with thin crust and toppings of Veggies in Peri Peri Sauce. It was so good, crispy, cheesy and I LOVED IT!!
Apart from these, we tried the Veg and Non Veg Combos too. I specifically have to recommend the Non Veg Combo, having Stuffed Kulchas, Butter Chicken, Kebabs ,Fried Chicken, Gajar Ka Halwa, Fries and Papad. More than Perfect for 2.
Now coming to The Mocktail Section, I had,
• Foul
• Offside
• Red Card
|| Foul ||
Presented in a boot shaped Glass, it was basically a Litchi based Mocktail. Fresh & Refreshing.
|| Red Card ||
It sounds spicy, obviously it have to be spicy too. Basically a pineapple and chilli based Mocktail decorated with red chili powder and lemongrass. I never thought Spicy can be so refreshing. Well every good things have it's start :3
|| Offside ||
My Favourite!! Well don't think I'm biased cause I love Watermelons but it was actually beautiful. The combination of coconut water and Watermelon, served in a coconut shaped pitcher, Perfect!!
Now I tried two things from their Mad Section,
|| Oreo Overload ||
If you love chocolate, it's for you. A huge glass of chocolate and oreos, what is not to like there? And just for the texture, it's recommended. Try it!!
|| Mad Berry ||
Not a Berry Fan, but It was actually really nice.
Now from Signature Items, I tried
|| Mad Mango ||
A big jar of Mango Smoothie and Cream, sounds good? It had a nice creamy texture.
Now for Cocktails, they are now serving premixes, which makes the whole situation easy as we can now have it while staying at home. The 5 premixes they are serving are
•• Sex on the Beach ••
•• Cosmopolitan ••
•• Twisted Bloody Mary ••
•• Twisted Whiskey Sour ••
•• Sangria ••
A Great Experience, Indeed!!
