One of the most popular food joints in the city — Indigo Deli — is loved by foodies for its true-blue international menu. And though it keeps reinventing its set of choices and new additions, the taste is always something that suits my palate, no matter what. And that’s the reason I visit the restaurant whenever I’m in the mood for some experimental food. The ambience of the place is something that makes me feel comfortable and cozy, unlike the five-star set ups, which mostly exude fine-dining atmosphere. In contrast, the restaurant’s bare walls, stonework floors, effortless and classic teak wood furnishings, rightly blended with hints of colour, are pleasing enough to make one seated for hours, drooling over their yummy food and lenghthening leisurely conversations.   However, the best times that I prefer going there is either during lunch hours or brunch, or often for meetings. It is one of the most relaxed cafes around that also serves amazing cuisines. Being a light eater, with a preference for non-greasy stuff, this place offers several delicacies for just my kind of tastebuds. Since they have a huge variety of quick snacks, I will begin with the ones that are on the top of my most-favourites list. Afternoon visits here are incomplete without their tasty mushroom and onion sandwich. I am a huge fan of this one and gorge on it every time I visit the place. Also, the Tomato Caipiroska salad is something that just not to be missed here. While on main course, I cannot not mention the excellent risotto with black olive tapenade that’s an instant mood-lifter. Don’t forget to order their tuna with spiced fenugreek and clove, which is unbelievably tasty too. Vegetarians also have a great variety to choose from.  If you are looking to satiate the need for your sweet-tooth craving, know that a meal here is incomplete without the sinful deserts they have on offer. One of the must-try desserts is the hot dessert soufflĂ©, apart from the chocolate fondant. Also, dig into their dreamy lemon soufflĂ© and the molten chocolate cake. But remember: all of these are subject to availability, as these are made in small portions on a daily basis. Indigo Deli is one of the few places that I recommend, not just to hang out with friends or have meetings in its swish set up, but also because it lets you enjoy the food along with the conversations.
