Just visited the place last night. Tried their stuffed chicken strips for starters and then the chilli cheeseburger. Both were quite good. Washed it down with peach colada, which was ok. The owner is currently building a cigar place on the second floor, and another restaurant on the top floor. All in all, another worthy addition to zamzama’s eateries.

p.s. the bathroom was good, but the one at cafe flo is the best :)

This means that for a person with a big appetite like mine (who can regularly eat one and a half large pizzas of Pizza Hut, and who usually runs up an 800 Rs. bill in Nandos’), dinner would easily range from 800-900 Rs. I wonder how everyone here can afford such high prices :) Seriously there was a time when I used to think that even KFC and Pizza Hut were expensive. Now they seem cheap in comparison.

Chilli cheesburger was 335. I would say dinner would easily range from 400-450 per head.

competitive, same as arizona. berry drinks etc were about 125 each. side orders were about 125ish. salads and starters were 295-295. and desserts were about 175-295 (i think). coffees were about 175ish. not bad me thinks. for one starter, one salad, one mineral water, three drinks, two desserts and one cheese melt sandwich out bill totalled 1886. prices are exclusive of tax.

Any ideas on the price range? It’s one of the most important things in a restaurant review! :)

was there myself on Tuesday night and even though I was only on green fresh salads, the chicken cheese bites and bread onthe cheese melt were to die for. there fried icecream certainly needsto be more “fried” (hardcore tempura style) but otherwise, its wonderful. owned by the Arizona Grill management and team, the quality is quite alright. not too pricey, its definitely on my always-visit list. decor is absolutely divine, giving a proper cafe feel to it. do go.
