Restaurant review-Punjabi by nature, Punjabi Bagh, Delhi

It was for a little birthday gathering that we decided to dine at the new outlet of Punjabi by Nature in Punjabi Bagh. It had a nice opening with flower pots and small lighting. As we entered, there was a big screen on front. The restaurant was well lit. It appeared neat and clean with waiters in proper uniforms.

Buffet table

Another bay on the right

At the entrance, a small walkway had 3 small tables besides lights. A couple can enjoy a romantic evening there.Then a hall divided in two bays by a separator. On the right bay, buffet table was laid out and left bay had dining tables. There were two separate little private sections on the right bay.

Snacks included dahi Bhalla, gol gappe and samosa.Nothing was spicy or oily. They got dry gol gappas for kids. Both Golgappe and samosas were crispy. Kids had them easily.

Starters

 All starters were piping hot. I liked mushrooms the most followed by chicken kebabs. Chicken kebabs were very soft and had appropriate salt. Adding chutney, onions and lemon to them made it lip smacking.

Unforgettable experience of Mountain flight in Nepal

Mountain flight in Nepal is once in a lifetime experience. It covered most of the Top 10 peaks of the world , most of which are in Nepal ( Except Nanga Parbat in Pakistan and K2 in India).

View from air

View from height

The flight also boasts of closest view of Mount Everest from naked eye , unless you are actually climbing it.

The last peak we saw was Makalu (8463 m), beyond which Kanchanjunga ranges start. Our plane turned back from here and now we could see all the peaks from right side.
