Khandani rajdhani...ek food parampara...this restaurant is known for its Rajasthani and Gujrati flavors in their food and their typical feeding spoon service. Apart from that, yesterday, when they invited some of us ( food Bloggers) for their ongoing Aamalicious) a festival of mango based dishes in their menu.
The kichdhi was good, the bland flavor with little salt is good enough for the veggies to complete with. The jeera rice was served with ghee and it lacked the flavor and was bland. Never liked it though. The pressure in the kitchen was evident.
When i got an invite, i got bored with the mango for the season and i though max they would shell out some aam ras along with some roti.. But the menu which was posted for the knowledge was way impressive and i was impressed with the dishes they stated out were, mind boggling. I never expected such dishes to be on their menu especially the aam festival has made it possible for me to relish their food.
The food started with their standard masala chaas, it was very thirst quenching and i am relaxed with that. Then they brought the aam panna, it was a masala mango drink which was also very tangy and sweet, which brought me back to the joy of food. Now i am charged and ready for the food love.
They served the sprout salad, cutlet and the dhokla. with some green chutney and red chutney. The djokla was absolute disaster and it had no moisture and softness. The cutlet was no good to me as it was less crunchy and it was not hot.
Then they came up with the dal bati churma, and the chaat. The dal baati churma was served with ghee and it was good with the churma to have that extra sweetness with the baati and dal. Chat was good and decent.
Then they served us the vegetables among which i liked the aam ki launji, paneer sopta. They were soft and the flavor was excellent though. The paneer had the right amount of spicy taste which took me for granted and the cabbage was a little bland with no salt.
In dal section, i liked the aam ki kadi, as the dahi and the aam both came together with the blast in the mouth. The sweet dal A.K.A gujrati dal, was also good enough with enough spice in it. The roti was good and the puri which was served was oily and crispy, it got shattered away when i tried to have the sweet dal.
The desserts were made in special for the day and they made the mango jalebi, fruit custard,mango lassi. The mango jalebi was a pure heavenly feeling when i had the first bite and i was never down from there till when i relished another one.
It was so soft and juicy that the mango strip was made to fry with the outer part of the jalebi which was even good. Fruit custard was decent and not a hit for me.
The legendary aam ras was the king of the show and we had lots of roti with the heavenly combination. It was a pure bliss to mention. The mango lassi was also purely delightful for me to end the meal. It was heavy and too dizzy for me to make a move from my table , as i relished the most heaviest meal on earth.
With the excellent service, we are happy for the staff and managemnet of Rajdhani for hosting us for the lovely evening and hope they will continue their consistency in terms of the food at all times during the festival.
