Machaan - Mani Square Mall

Machaan Restaurant Kolkata
Machaan Mani Square
Machaan
Machaan, a unit of Mainland China group, is a unique experience at Mani Square Mall @ EM Bypass. A big grey elephant and the tribal men with spears and gear piques your interest as you come inside through the main entrance- then you enter a jungle instead of a restaurant as is evident from the pictures I have uploaded alongside. The place is dark with dense jungle foliage covering most of the space. And for company you have an elephant, giraffes, crocodiles, and monkeys, parrots, squirrels, bears staring at you from tree-tops and an Anaconda! However unfortunately they have invested/wasted lot of money on interiors & its maintenance which starts irritating you after some time as you can’t even see the faces of persons sitting with you or the food that is served or the menu card properly. They serve to every table complimentary spicy papaya chutney, pudina chutney, Onion chaat, Papaad and pickels in brass utensils regardless of what food you order. The waiters are dressed in Cheetah skin color clothes and sounds of various animals / birds are played in the background to add to the jungle ambience. There is a balcony in the form of a tree house, which however has tables for 4 persons only. The waiters are attentive and change the plates, cutlery after starters, main course and also clean the tables at regular intervals. The toilets are located in forest caves and have a dungeon type entry, but the wash-basins were not clean and didn’t have proper taps. Drink pegs cost from Rs.400 to 800 inclusive of taxes. I would like you to try out the Campfire Gosht Shorba for soup, which tastes like mutton daal. In the main course you can take Hunter Chicken, Junglee masalo ka Raan (Full) (Really soft and tasty mutton), Dahi Gosht, Junglee Masale ki Murgh and Dal Machaan; alongside which you can have tandoori roti or Green healthy naan (corn & methi stuffed- its delicious). Gulab Jamoon would be nice for desserts. The quantity of the mutton/chicken dishes are more than enough for 4 persons. The food cost for two persons (without drinks) is approximately Rs. 1200- 1300 inclusive of taxes. The weekdays buffet is priced at Rs. 500 (Non-veg) and Rs. 450 (Veg) inclusive of taxes.
