Drumstick - Beliaghata CIT More

Drumstick Restaurant Kolkata

Drumstick is located in a busy locality having markets, old houses and the main route for auto & buses passing between kankurgachi & sealdah. It is a small (about 7-9 tables) A/C multi-cuisine restaurant that boasts of the best quality food available in that area. Customer traffic is less during lunch time and hence with only a handful of waiters, service is good. It is heavily curtained on all of its inside walls and one can hardly say whether its sunny or cloudy outside during daytime. Chicken / mutton biriyani is the best dish here, which is served in Handi in a profuse quantity, consisting of a large piece of chicken / mutton, meat balls, potato & egg (At Rs. 100). Chicken Tandoori should be taken as starter (half or full). Along with that try Chicken tengri kebab masala (Rs. 180), this is simply luscious and yummy. Other kebabs like reshmi, tikka, kati, hariyali are also good. If you want to have tandoori roti / butter naan, then try out chicken bharta (comes with egg) as side dish! The Chinese dishes are average type. The cost of a meal for 2 persons is approximately Rs. 400- 450 (inclusive of taxes). Toilet is clean. However finding parking could be difficult during busy hours. The velvet sofas are soft, but the leg spacing is less due to the small area of the place.
Location: 8, Beliaghata CIT More, Hem Chandra Naskar Road

Haka - City Centre (Saltlake)


Haka City Centre Kolkata

HAKA is a restaurant from the Mainland China group which is located at many places like City Centre, Mani Square. Haka is good for the times you really want to eat Chinese food at a big restaurant but don't want to spend too much. Comparing to the price (Rs. 200 + Tax) it's a fine option for a descent oriental lunch buffet, which serves Soup, 5 salads, 2 veg starters, 1 veg wonton, 1 veg side dish, 2 chicken side dish (1 with bone + 1 wihout bone), 1 fried Rice, 1 Noodles, 1 darshan, 1 ice cream (usually vanilla with chocolate sauce). The price might be a bit higher on weekends. However only à la carte menu is present at dinner and bar closes at 10-30 pm, last order of food taken at 11 pm. You can definitely try out Chilli Satay Fish, spicy crabmeat fried rice, chicken in oyester sauce, salt & pepper prawn. The place has a theme colour of Red & Black, and only these colors are used for chairs, tables, water jugs, waiter’s dress code and walls. There are paintings of Chinese women having chow with chopsticks on the walls. The service is moderate. It is a budget eatery (not very cozy) with simple chair & tables.

Location: City Centre, Block DC, 2nd Floor, Shop No E 205.

City Centre 2 (Rajarhat) - Blue Nile

City Centre 2, New Town is a tempting medley of shopping, dining, fun and entertainment with its array of shops, superb restaurants, hotel and movie theatres…a veritable paradise for the fun loving family. There are many restaurants like Blue Nile, Camelia Restaurant, Gamma Lounge, Durbari, Afraa & others. I went to Blue Nile recently but will surely try out the others soon.

Blue Nile Restaurant Kolkata
Though from the name Blue Nile, you may think that Egyptian food is served here, but it is not so. It is only because of the fact that the interior of this place has an Egyptian theme with extensive paintings of Pharaoh & their culture, Gods & Goddesses, obelisks, hieroglyphics, pyramids, slaves & workers doing farming or other appointed tasks and ancient related things of Egyptian civilization. Even the sofas and chairs have some form of Egyptian Queen, Cleopatra or The Sphinx. There is a bar on the far side with a large Egyptian painting in the front and wine & scotch bottles on either side as opposed to normal kinds of bars. The lighting is perfect giving the effects of a museum sort of place. There are continental, Chinese, Indian dishes present in the menu which again has Egyptian drawings in the background. The food is really good here especially the continental dishes like Fish Steak, Mutton Saslik, Princess Chicken which all comes with a choice of pasta or peas rice, boiled vegetables & French fries. The starters like Salt & pepper American corn, Murgh Kasturi kabab, mutton sliced are equally scrumptious. The desserts are normal and have a few options from ice-cream, caramel custard and others. The service is quite fast & quantity of a starter or side dish of main course can serve 4 persons. The price for 2 persons is a maximum of Rs. 850- 900 including taxes without any hard drinks. This place maybe new and located at a Mall that is far away from main Kolkata region, but it’s a place worth visiting, because the food over here is cooked in a different technique apart from other places and can really stun anyone who visits here for the first time. So I would definitely ask you to check it out if you ever pass through VIP Road or Rajarhat.
