A
front
foot
on
the
vibe,
a
back
foot
on
the
service...
Situated
3/4th
of
a
mile
away
from
the
plush
Hiranandani
Gardens
locality
in
Powai,
Rude
Lounge
with
its
cool&youthful
background,
flickering
lights,
and
the
DJ
i.a.
does
set
an
amazing
tone
for
a
different
(
if
not
a
special
)
night
and
a
leisurely
atmosphere
to
make
the
moves
whilst
having
the
booze
run
through
you.
The
first
order
requires
a
full
payment
at
the
time
of
ordering
(
however
the
payment
for
subsequent
orders
can
be
settled
at
the
end
).
In
our
case,
the
table
allotment
happened
quickly
despite
peak
hours.
Amongst
the
food,
we
tried
various
types
of
dishes
here
including
a
couple
of
masala
papad
(
didn't
find
it
tasty
),
pasta,
chicken
kebab
(
which
was
on
the
dry&medium-spicy
side
),
pizza,
nachos
with
salsa
(
not
closer
to
the
Three
Nacho
Dip
sold
by
a
popular
coffee
chain
but
still
very
good
),
hot
chocolate
brownies
with
ice
cream
(
which
had
an
amazing
taste
),
and
concluded
with
a
cheesecake,
the
latter
being
amongst
the
best
I
have
eaten
hitherto
and
there
perhaps
wouldn't
have
a
been
a
better
way
to
end
the
day.
On
the
quantities
front,
it
seemed
reasonable
given
the
prices
(
with
the
exception
of
Masala
Papad
and
Nachos,
which
had
a
big
quantity
).
Well,
and
the
below-par
service
now.
The
bar
is
understaffed,
and
one
can
feel
it
more
so
when
its
house
full.
Whilst
initially
it
was
easy
to
place
an
order,
but
post
an
hour
or
so,
it
took
quite
a
long
to
fetch
the
staff.
And
worse,
their
forgetfulness
(
I
will
be
respectful
enough
not
to
give
the
tag
of
delinquency
).
The
Red
Bull
needed
multiple
reminders
and
took
a
long
to
fetch,
surely
they
weren't
fabricating
one
in
their
backyard.
The
second
brownie
needed
a
couple
of
reminders.
The
packaged
water
bottle
too
needed
me
to
literally
go
to
their
counter
to
fetch
one
since
the
wait
seemed
sempiternal.
This
is
surely
an
area
the
lounge
may
want
to
improve
upon,
as
finding
oneself
in
a
spot
where
one
has
to
give
reminders
multiple
times
is
not
something
any
customer
would
want.
The
sideways
of
the
bar
being
open
presents
an
advantage
to
people
who
are
not
very
comfortable
with
very
loud
music,
as
the
side
openings
help
spread
out
and
thereby
reduce
the
noise
to
quite
an
extent
inside
the
bar.
The
music
combination
as
observed
was
equally
between
Hindi
and
English.
As
midnight
struck,
the
bartender's
craft
fully
did
the
bottle-catching
thing
and
played
with
controlled
fire,
both
of
which
lasted
for
about
10
mins.
Skillful
that.
To
those
vivacious,
the
bar
counter
is
theirs,
go
ascend
and
rule.
Going
to
the
lavatory
is
quite
a
challenge
especially
towards
the
latter
parts
of
the
night
since
the
floor
gets
crowded
with
people
dancing
everywhere
and
no
empty
or
designated
way
is
left
to
go
there.
One
strange
thing
which
caught
my
attention
was
the
presence
of
an
irrelevant
poster
in
the
washroom
(
no
reference
is
intended
to
unclean
ones
which
are
ideally
related
to
a
bed/couch
).
This
may
need
a
relook.
As
far
as
the
bar
area
is
concerned,
it's
big.
The
outside
views
are
perhaps
unbeatable
-
on
one
side
there
is
a
mountain
covered
with
greenery
and
on
another
side,
there
are
high-rise
condos
along
with
swatches
of
greens.
