A new place in n-block gk1, the place is sure shot a great one. They have both indoor and outdoor seating areas, so you can have best of both. They are situated on the second floor and also have a terrace seating, which provides with a nice view and that's where is the outdoor seating, which is best for them cold winter evenings and romantic dates.
The place has a minimalistic interior, and stays true to the less is more theme. The color scheme stays in sync with the name "Gray", perfect blend between black and white.
The terrace is covered with a tent like structure which is painted with paper cut designs. The place has beautuful chandeliers and everything is just great, very positive vibes. The servers and manager all were very warm, and took great care of us.
Coming to the food, i went for a tasting and reviewing session, so had a lot to eat.
We had:
Rasuli murg tikka - Tender chicken tikka pieces with cheese and a soft flavour to go with. The chicken was cooked well and the cheese just added to the amazing flavourful taste, as the name suggests, it was juicy, tender and full of some top notch flavours.
Crumbed fried fish - Fish covered with panko bread crumbs and fried to perfection. It was done well, was crispy but i felt that it could have been better, the fish could have been a little thick, i felt the filet was very thin and it was more crumbs and less fish.
Kachmoli boti kebab - Nice spicy mutton boti kebabs, the taste was good but not as tender as i would liked them to be, a little chewy, but the overall flavour was nice.
Crispy chicken seekh - Something that i wanted to try as soon as i checked it on the menu, chicken seekh stuffed with cheese and green chillies then wrapped in spring roll, i mean how beautiful it is just to read about it, and the taste, oh wow, amazing it was and as soon as you bite into the crispy roll, tender seekh and gooey cheese, you get a punch of great tastes and an even wonderful flavour. The best of all.
Peri peri chicken pizza - Nice thin crust pizza with spicy chicken tenders, balanced amount of cheese and fresh arugula. The crust was as thin as it can get, the chicken was soft and flavouful and the whole combination worked really really well. It had everything that a great pizza needs to have. Do go for it.
Pomfret in shanghai style - Deep cried pomfret cooked with garlics and garlic sauce in shanghai style. The fish was cooked well in a nice garlicy flavour and the presentation was even better.
Udon noodles - I tried the udon noodles for the first time and i really don't think that i will try it again, a little extra spicy and a lot of sauces. Not that great.
Chicken lasagna - As a fond lover of cheese, i can proudly say that this was great, the presentation was really great, the pasta was cooked well and the overall meal was a satisfying one.
Chocolate gulab jamun - As the name suggests, the dessert did not stood by its name, when you read such a dish on the menu, you expect it to be very chocolatey, hot and a great combination of both indian and western flavours. The chocolate was literally scarce and only at the bottom, which made the dish an average one. Could have been much better, if there was a good amount of chocolate in it.
Coming to the drinks, the management recommended us to try the signature cocktails, so we
Tried the same:
Dancers reward - Vanilla bases vodka, with a strong flavour of pineapple and a little if star anise bitter. They spray a little star anise flavour on the cocktail, to give it the added kick. The cocktail is strong and has a bitter taste, something new, but not for my taste buds.
Lamp room gray - Corn cocktail with tennessee whisky, in orange juicy and the best part, served in a smoke room. The smoke of hickory wood chips, gives the drink a smoky and amazing flavour, and the top notch flavour of the cocktail was just amazing, you have to give it a try. Amazing flavour and taste.
The whole experience at gray, was very nice, they have some great things going on, and only the small things to work on. The ambience was great, the service was fast, the server and the manager were very polite and warm, and the food was good too. They have to work on the desserts, and a little on the food and i am sure they can kick it out of the park and give a tough competition to other places in the neighbourhood. Being a fine dining place, gray stoods by it, place is beautiful and the services are great. You need to try it, when it formally opens to the general public and without a doubt, you will love it !
