Dinner at 28 Capri Italy, Defence Colony

It's place which you can visit if you've got time to spare....

The service was friendly, food average and slightly low in the value for money quotient, ambiance was nice(don't miss the love-lift for 2, which leads to the restaurant ;-) *Evil Grin*), the best was Live Music.... the singer was really good and choice of songs was lovely. Him and my drink are the only reason I would go back. Would however have liked to try some pizza on my next visit.

You'll find 28 Capri Italy listed on Zomato.com. We had Orange Pepper Martini and Diet Coke on the rocks(!). The drink was nice and arrived soon. It was served with Nachos and a lovely Salsa sauce.

Why is it that I have all friends who want to be like Manoj Kumar n cover their faces when I say smile.... Why do they want to remain anonymous.... #boring
For starters we had a Cold Cut Platter which had Chicken Salami, Bacon, Smoked Chicken and Turkey served with Black Olives.... Now this is what happens when you go out with a friend who is on a diet..... You don't get to indulge..... She keeps a check on what you are eating.....

Our main course was Grilled Chicken with Mustard and Jalapeno Sauce. Wouldn't rate it as bad but not even great. Just about passable... The sauce was quite nice though but took it's time to come....

The litmus test of any Italian restaurant... Tiramisu..... This one was a #Fail for me..... I wouldn't order it again.

Salamiwich ~ Anyone for Salami Sandwich


Mom called me at work, asking what I wanted to have for dinner, would salami sandwich be ok. What a spoilt brat I am... :-) Told her to get me smiley's with it..... Ha...Ha...Ha.....

Knowing the mom I have, was expecting some healthy bread and juice to be served with it..... right I was.... There was Whole Wheat Bread along with Mixed Fruit Cucumber n Spinach & Orange n Carrot Juice from active.

Got going on my sandwich making spree.....

Mom n chachi were constantly hurrying me up..... n here I was taking pictures.... :-)


I had good fun putting it together.....

The final output was quite nice, mom n chachi both enjoyed it..... I popped in a few extra olives in my sandwich.. :-) I freaked out on the Dijon Honey Mustard. Am a total mustard freak......

Method:
