MARVEL OR DC??

Who are superheroes?
According to the most logical book written definition, superheroes are heroic stock characters, possessing supernatural or superhuman powers who fight with their opponents and protects the public....

But, what exactly is a superhero for us?
Well, superheroes are an emotion! In this 21st century, the world is divided into two different universes of superheroes - Marvel and DC!
From every man's perspective either one is better than the other and thus the love and belief in their favourite superheroes increases....



INTRODUCTION:

Kolkata within the last few years have come up with many new theme cafes and restaurants among which one has come up with the theme of superheroes. So this time with the hope of having a wonderful experience and spending some quality time with friends, food and superheroes, we continued our foodwalk towards the superhero themed cafe named CAFE HQ ( https://www.instagram.com/cafehqkolkata/ )

ADDRESS: 1/4, Bawali Mandal Road, Lalpara, Mudiali, Kalighat





ENVIRONMENT:

With entering, the cafe provides you with a good feel with Marvel DC character posters framed on the walls, their interiors have decorations which will surely mesmerize any Marvel DC fan, from comic pages framed on the walls to the big wallpapers of Joker and Captain America, from superhero cubical wall to the painted bats on the ceiling walls, from light lamps covered with superhero characters to the tables having superhero logos painted to the menu filled with eye catching dish names, this cafe will not leave you without surprising...

WHAT WE ORDERED:

From all the exciting names, we finally decided what to order...


  • AMAZING SPIDER WEB PIZZA:  A thin crust pizza with grilled chicken, Bell peppers and a good amount of mayonnaise of 8 pieces ( as per selected ). The flavours were really good and the simple combination of chicken, pepper and mayo did have a good balance of taste in the mouth!




           INR: 265
           BLOGGER'S OPINION: Good flavours but could have been a bit bigger in size!


  • BATMAN BURGER: A burger made with chicken patty, egg, grilled tomatoes and onions with burnt garlic chili mayo served with French fries and a dip. The flavours did not mix well and did not complement each other well. The fries were hot and crisp and tasted perfect with the dip!



           INR: 245
           BLOGGER'S OPINION: Not upto the mark, could have been a lot better with such spice combinations!


  • THANOS STEAK: A plate served with chicken steak, mashed potatoes, herb flavoured roasted vegetables with red wine jus. The potatoes and the veggies and the steak together had a mild taste which did not create a astonishing environment which a main course should have!



           INR: 345
           BLOGGER'S OPINION: Preferred to eat the veggies rather than the steak. In short a bad decision to opt for it!


  • POWER STONE - ICY SPICY BLACK CURRANT: A spicy drink yet full of mind blowing flavours which will surely be a treat in the mouth with all the above course food we had. This purple coloured chili flavoured drink was the saviour!




          INR: 180
          BLOGGER'S OPINION: Personal favourite of the day!


  • CAPTAIN MARVEL'S MONTE CARLO: A glass served with a layer of crunchies with a layer of black forest cake above it and vanilla ice cream topped with chocolate sauce and choco chips. You can also select chocolate or vanilla cake in place of black forest cake.



          INR: 150
          BLOGGER'S OPINION: A good dessert but won't say something amazing that left a mark in the mind and heart!

Check out their full menu here - Find this restaurant on Zomato | Cafe HQ, Tollygunge http://zoma.to/r/18575757

BLOGGER'S POINT OF VIEW:

A good place for hanging out with friends and family with a good range of exciting food available along with games and comic books to play with and read for pleasure.
According to me, every superhero fan should visit this place for once to experience the surrounding there but is it a place where I will visit again for having some food? Well, that's a difficult question to answer!

UNINHIBITED SUMMER !!

SUMMER... Summer for me is a state of mind, every summer has it's own story. It's summer ! Be free and happy and danceful and uninhibited and now ... Since childhood I have always felt that, Summertime is always the best of what might be. As they say, ' The tans will fade but the memories will last forever '. So as Summer is upon us, I have opted an outfit for myself that would keep me all cool and comfortable out in a sunny sunny day. I have teamed up  BROWN KNITTED TOP with long sleeves, with a CLASSIC DENIM MINI SKIRT.  🔸The BROWN KNITTED TOP  I am wearing, well nothing can be more comfortable than long sleeves in this season. Long sleeves not only gives us a funky look but also protects us from the tan and the heat. If I have a day planned out in the sun, I very much prefer long sleeves. Long sleeve tops are wadrobe essentials for summer. Long and volume sleeves give you a boxy and smart look. BRAND : FOREVER 21 MATERIAL : Cotton FOREV...

Peeping HOT!

Winter tales No matter, how many sweaters, we had pulled out from our trunk, winter dumped us again. However, few things are there which can never cheat on Bengalis! One such is our love for "গরম গরম কচুরি " Kachoris are basically a deep fried puffy and flaky bread loved by most of the Indians. This spicy North Indian dish is stuffed with anything ranging from, pulses ( dal ), peas, dried mango ( amchur ) or just spices! We Bengalis love to tear burst the peeping hot bread, fold it, scoop in some runny potatoes or sweetened daal and yummy!                talking of the places Bengalis have trusted for their kachoris since ages, our first mention would be this. featuring : Sharma Tea House This super crowded busy  snack station lies in the heart of Bhawanipore, pouring down every moment with more crowd, clustering with their plates of essentials ( KACHORI, POTATO CURRY, SAMOSAS). A few showed up with p...
