Say Copper Kettle ,if you love Steaks……

Copper Kettle, one of very old eatery serving great varieties of steaks, burgers and many more, is a leading place for steak lovers.

One of the thing that I love about this place is old Hollywood movie style hall, cow boy style waiters and great ambiance. It had been a while when I last visited this place.

This time I went with my friends. It was our first time here as G7…after sitting there was some talks about 2^nd meals so some were thinking that steaks would not be enough for their meal, yes one time Meal. J.

Everyone ordered steaks as that it was almost decided that we would go for steaks…I was a little disappointed to see that the menu is a little weak when it comes to beverages/soft drinks…it was almost the same list that I saw 4 years back..There were only few shakes and some soft drinks like coke etc. I ordered Blueberry shake that turn great in end.

When it came to dessert, it was double treat. Chocolate Browne with Vanilla Ice cream and you know no money…..They offered with steak order.
Overall, I had a pleasant experience at this old place; an ordinary lunch or dinner can become a memorable gastronomic experience at Copper Cattle.finally every was happy with food quality and quantity too.

Price

It is going to cost you around 1000 per person if you order steak.

VERANDA BISTRO ---- Ultimate Mediterranean Food

Well it is long time since I am in search of new and tasty in eatery options. Little fed up from some typical options.

A phone call from my friend gave me choice to fulfill this when he asked venue for today lunch. I took no time to mention “Veranda Bistro”, it is an upscale Mediterranean restaurant.

And my friends agreed on this luckily. Veranda Bistro is located in Gulberg 2 ,right behind the famous “Maria B” boutique. Entrance of  eatery is very impressive, nice and clean and well dressed management.

The simplistic, yet warm and charming decor create the perfect atmosphere for a pleasant meal with friends and family.

My friends were sitting in round shape table that was only option to sit more than 4 people together. Small tables were arranged. After initially discussion we ordered soup.

Whenever we come such places soup choice is very tricky. Normally our expectation about soup is very traditional. Three varieties were available for soup. I can recall following two names only right now.

These soups were served with very tasty garlic breads.

Wild Mushroom Soup

French Escargot Burgundy

After some time we moved towards buffet, I was almost surprised to see that Varity, fresh Organic Salads , baby lamb , steaks and lot more. It was totally different buffet menu.

Started with organic salad with butter and olives….i can feel the great taste. I missed one option only, the Pink Smoked Salmon. That was out class option in my last visit here. But this time fish was there but it was different. The food was great and the desserts (Chocolate fudge cake) were even greater.

Soft Drinks

Overall I was not very impressed with juice served. L

Price

Price of the buffet is on higher side. It would cost you Rs. 1400 per person (including TAX, cold drink).

Problems / Issues

only  thing i slightly disliked was the mutton steak, It was not very well cooked. 2^nd big issue was payment , they put us on hold due to credit card unavailability. Finally we have to bring cash from near ATM. That was not usual but unfortunately happened today. Though they served complimentary green tea for this, nice gesture I should day.

Final word of advice--do NOT eat off the al a carte menu. eat only from the lunch buffet spread and you just might enjoy your experience.
