Evoke
the
glutton
inside
you
to
tantalize
your
tastebuds
and
relish
some
serious
flavour
goals
savouring
Terrific
Trio,
courtesy
Café
Mezzuna.!
There
is
something
about
this
place
that
always
clicks.
One
of
the
first
places
to
give
meaning
to
establishing
world
cuisines
in
Kolkata,
I
have
always
liked
Café
Mezzuna
for
its
fancy
food.
Fingerlicking
starters,
tapas
styled
appetizers
to
hearty
main
courses
and
then
finally
ending
with
scrumptious
desserts,
Café
Mezzuna
has
been
my
go-to
place
since
long.
And
when
this
place
boasts
of
a
Terrific
Trio,
a
bento
box
styled
meal
platter,
to
be
enjoyed
back
at
the
comfort
of
your
home
or
office,
you
know
you
will
get
the
best
of
flavours,
coupled
with
the
strictest
of
hygiene
checks
and
health
standards.
The
Veg
platter
had
good
round
sized
Mozzarella
Cheese
Balls,
stringy
and
oozing
out
with
gooey
hot
cheese,
paid
these
tapas
appetizers
with
the
garlic
breads
as
you
dip
these
into
the
sweet
and
tangy
Mexican
Salsa.
Slight
amount
of
heat
at
the
back
of
your
tongue,
the
Asian
styled
vegetables
fricassee
balances
the
heat
out
with
its
sweetness
and
coconut
milk
flavours.
One
preparation
where
the
meat
or
vegetables
are
first
browned,
then
stewed,
and
then
sautéed
with
a
sauce,
this
is
very
much
different
from
the
method
of
preparation
of
a
stew.
The
sauce
was
fingerlicking
good,
and
had
strong
Asian
lineages
speaking
out
of
it.
The
crisp
zucchinis,
the
juicy
peppers
and
the
crunchy
broccolis
seem
to
well
absorb
the
aroma
of
the
coconut
leaves,
making
them
pair
perfectly
with
the
slight
tang,
zest
and
heat
from
the
delectable
lemon
chilli
rice.
Soft,
rich
and
decadent
chocolate
brownie
to
end
your
meal,
this
platter
would
make
you
have
serious
vegetarian
vibes,
even
if
you
haven’t
been
a
fan
of
the
same
yet.
Coming
to
the
non-vegetarian
combos,
the
first
one
had
creamy
and
melt
in
the
mouth
Parsley
Hummus
replacing
its
sweet
and
tangy
counterpart
of
the
Mexican
Salsa.
Some
serious
Middle
Eastern
vibes,
the
combination
of
fresh
parsley
and
rustic
chickpeas
mixed
with
the
tahini
and
lemon
juice
was
too
good
to
resist.
Next
in
the
box
were
the
grilled
sensations
of
Harissa
Spiced
Chicken.
With
a
wooden
and
smoky
touch,
the
addition
of
the
chillies
imparted
a
gentle
kick
to
the
chicken,
while
retaining
the
softness
and
delicate
texture
of
the
chicken.
The
meat
was
soft
throughout,
something
which
is
usually
not
the
case
of
grilled
chicken
as
the
meat
tends
to
lose
out
on
all
its
juice.
The
addition
of
the
lemon
imparted
the
tang,
while
the
garlic
boosted
the
flavours
coming
from
the
harissa.
For
mains,
the
chicken
strips
were
tossed
in
a
rich
and
decadent
cream-cheese
sauce
and
enhanced
by
the
sprinkling
of
freshly
grounded
thyme.
Pairing
these
chicken
strips
with
the
herbed
pilaf
was
a
moment
to
remember.
A
surprising
combination
of
grilled
chicken
cooked
in
a
cheesy
sauce
paired
with
buttered
rice.
Imagine
that!
Zero
points
on
what
I
did
to
the
desserts
on
the
side,
the
rich
and
gooey
brownie
evoked
the
glutton
inside
me,
hoping
to
have
more
during
the
next
fling.
I
wasn’t
that
concerned
though,
as
the
last
non-vegetarian
platter
was
as
good
as
the
other
two.
The
usual
fling
of
the
garlic
breads,
this
time
being
accompanied
by
a
creamy
mayo
dip.
Priced
at
Rs.
395/-
+
tax
for
each
of
these
meal
boxes,
these
can
be
availed
through
online
portals

and

A
must
try
if
you
are
craving
serious
flavour
goals,
these
will
not
disappoint
your
palette
or
your
appetite!
