Gorge at George

If you are a foodie, then ultimate pleasure is discovering new joint and planning it for a nice occasion.
Being in Pune and especially in Aundh had been a so far not that adventurous but of late there is some renewed activity and some surprise discoveries. I have been a regular at Idlicious, a breakfast joint to go to with half sleepy eyes and eat till you drop those typical southee dishes and hang around with a steaming cup of filter coffee. Moving on to the midday, if you are a hard core non-veggie, ‘Tareef” is one such place on your list of never-to-miss eateries, especially for Paaya soup and raan (lamb leg piece nicely roasted) and their tenderly cooked mutton biryani. It reminded me of my days at Hyderabad and those late luncheons after a sweaty volleyball games and quarrels thereafter. Talking about mutton “George” is on such restaurant near MG road. Have a good walk on MG road and then take it out all on those crisp mutton chops followed by Pishta Kulfi. If you little more foolhardy in your culinary explorations, radio will take you to new high with kheema pav and seekhs. MG road is a place full of such close to my heart joints. You enter Hotel Diamond with tired legs and you have at your disposal gulps of chilled beer and mooh lagan ke liye Surmai fry. ... List is endless...watch out for more on this ...till then let me go and relish homemade aamras and rice papads.
