North Indian cuisine is an indulgent experience, especially the vibrant flavours of Delhi! The tantalising masalas, aromatic spices, rich butter, and satisfyingly heavy, greasy dishes are pure love. There’s nothing like venturing out to savour some drool-worthy North Indian delights. Bringing a slice of Delhi’s culinary magic to our city is the newly opened Café Delhi Heights, where every bite promises to transport you straight to the heart of India’s capital. It is a beautiful dining spot, offering a quiet, calm ambience perfect for enjoying a hearty meal with your loved ones. This multi-cuisine eatery features delectable fusion delicacies and some amazing dishes straight from Delhi.
Upon entering, we were immediately captivated by the peaceful and pastel colour palette. The harmonious blend of shades of green and beige created a stunning visual balance, making the ambience both intriguing and beautiful. The comfortable chairs and tables, complemented by touches of greenery, added to the delightful aesthetic. Enhancing the charm even further were the ceiling lamps, casting a warm and inviting glow that perfectly illuminated the space.
We commenced our culinary journey with the mouthwatering Palak Patta chaat, a delightful dish featuring crispy fritters crafted from palak leaves, beautifully adorned with sev, curd, masalas, pomegranate seeds, and an array of chutneys, along with other quintessential ingredients. It was a flavourful start to our meal! Next, we savoured the delectable nachos, featuring cheese-baked nachos accompanied by tangy sour cream, zesty salsa, and creamy guacamole, making it an utterly delightful choice. For a non-vegetarian alternative, we indulged in the exquisite Chicken tikka, marinated with aromatic Kashmiri l a l mirch, which was simply too good to miss. On that note, one shouldn’t miss out on a paneer appetiser which was amazingly crispy on the outside.
Exploring other cuisines, we indulged in Pan-fried noodles with chilli bean sauce. This delicacy featured perfectly pan-fried noodles generously drizzled with a robust chilli bean sauce. Though the noodles themselves were a touch on the bland side, the rich, flavourful sauce beautifully balanced the dish, elevating it to a harmonious and satisfying experience. Next, we delighted in a vegetarian Mexican treat, Enchiladas. This consisted of perfectly rolled tortillas stuffed with a medley of vegetables, generously smothered in rich sauces, and baked to perfection with an abundance of melted cheese. It was a mouthwatering experience! One epic food combo that followed brought wide smiles to our faces, evoking the nostalgic comfort of a typical Delhi-style butter chicken. Mom’s buttered chicken tikka masala, served with Jalapeño biryani, raita, a house salad, and scrumptious garlic naan, was the perfect meal, blending homely flavours with a touch of indulgence.
We rounded off our experience with an impeccable fusion dessert, Motichoor laddu cheesecake. This innovative creation featured a luscious cheesecake topped with delightful bits and pieces of motichoor laddu, offering a perfect blend of traditional sweetness and creamy indulgence. In addition to their delectable dishes, Café Delhi Heights offers a selection of amazing desserts and beverages to indulge in. So, don’t miss the chance to visit and immerse yourself in a culinary voyage.
