Review- Terracotta Vivanta By Taj @Whitefield Bengaluru

Terracotta is an Ideal space for romantic candle light dinner. Cuisine is from different regions of India and Peshawar. The menu is carefully curated by celebrity Chef Anwar Ali these recipes are family owned and passed down from generation to generation.

Chef Anwar's greatest grandfather cooked most of these dishes to the mughal kings it cannot get any better than this. I absolutely enjoyed every single dish on the menu the quality and quantity is invariable...This is something I'm impressed at all Taj branches.

A-la-carte seems Bit Pricey on the other hand the power lunch seems okay priced at 795/- I would like to try that some day...

Food was excellent subtle flavors and taste of freshly pounded spices combined and cooked with meats and vegetables to perfection.

Chef Anwar Ali and Team

Guava and Water melon Juice

What did I taste? Paya shorba/Soup lamb trotters slow cooked with a blend of spices over a period of 9 hours the meat was tender the soup tasted excellent it was so soothing.

Next was some appetizers galouti kababs, cheesy stuffed mushrooms(Bharwaan mushrooms), char grilled prawns, peshawari murgh tikka, tandoori broccoli and  stuffed apricot tandoori tikka... Every single appetizer tasted different some had a hint of cardamom, ginger, methi and so on it was a feast for sure...

Char Grilled Prawns

Tandoori Salmon Tikka

Peshawari Murgh

Smoked Egg Plant

For mains we had Peshawari Raan, leg of lamb baked on coals smoked with cloves, Murgh pasanda sajid ali shah was excellent with naans the gravy was creamy quite an innovative recipe if this was served in the 1600.

Keema Kaleji minced mutton cooked with tiny cubes of liver this dish was spiced and cooked to perfection. It’s a tough process to cook lamb mince and liver all at once and they have nailed it.

Aloo bhukara kofa is again a winner loved the taste and stuffed potato. palak rosogolla seemed tempting I somehow did not like the combo it was way to sweet and the spinach had a different flavor and taste.  Smoked eggplant was again bit bland, I loved the combo with butter naan..

The mutton biryani was ultimate I simply enjoyed the meat and rice it was dum cooked I could eat this biryani all day.

Shrikhand Parfait

Garlic Kheer and Sewai ka Muzaffar

Finally for desserts we tasted sewai ka muzaffar, garlic kheer, Shrikhand parfait. Garlic Kheer was very unique dessert thinly sliced garlic cooked in fragrant milk infused with saffron tasted like almond slivers.  

 

over all amazing experience...I loved the ambiance, food and service....I will go back some day to enjoy this meal again..
