Kathiawadi food festival by chef Dhawal Ajmera (Hornby’s pavilion, ITC grand central, mumbai)

In a NUtshell:

A meal that gave us as much joy as we experienced after eating at Dum Pukht (not comparing cuisines but the sheer feeling of joy) – loved the chat with chef, his team mate , the thoughtfully laid out festival section, ingredients sourced from Gujarat, fabulous taste & textures & most importantly the fact that chef had the guts to offer home recipes (some of them super simple, daily…

So I know a lot of people wait tables, me included, but I want to know if this is normal. It was my first day on the job working at a 5 star restaurant and near the end of my shift I’m passing a table with a middle aged couple and I happen to glance at them. What I see is the woman has stripped her male dates shirt open and is toying with his abundant nipple hair… It was all I could do to keep from stopping and staring at this somewhat, how do I put it, uncomfortable situation. The strange thing is that they weren’t alone in the restaurant. It was a busy night but that didn’t stop her. After they had left I found two buttons on the table that had been popped off the guys shirt by his over eager dinner companion. So, anybody else have experience with that kind of situation? Or is that an oddity?

Tis Best Not To Discuss The Price of The Wine

At what was otherwise a pleasant dinner recently (in the sky in Toronto, Canada) an ill prepared waiter panicked when I asked him for a wine recommendation and he started to ask me about the price I wanted to pay for a bottle with my dinner. We all know you can't put a price on a great bottle of wine, but to get serious for a moment:

I found it awkward and unnecessary to discuss such a matter in from of the rest of my party. Staff need to be trained properly to confidently discuss the wine cellar.  

MY TIP: Ask me about region, pair it with my meal, and direct me to the price with your hand while pointing out suggestions on the wine list.
