Indulge in a sinful affair

We had been to Mumbai's original store when they had started and had come away only three-fourth pleased. Our grouse, largely, was the fact that their menu had a whole lot of non-chocolate items. Now, they seem to have taken care of that and also raised the bar for their quality. The new Puneu00a0outlet impressed us to such an extent that we wanted tou00a0go back immediately afteru00a0getting out.u00a0

We began our affair with Hot Chocolate (Rs 99), given our preference for dark chocolate. It came in the little hug-me cup that warmed not only our palms but the very depth of our hearts.u00a0

The Hot Chocolate was so good that we wholeheartedly forgave the Tandoori Pizza (Rs 140) that tasted almost like chaat on a pizza base.u00a0

By the time our Sexy Spanish Churros (Rs 150) arrived, we were floating. We would have preferred the churros to be sugar-dusted with a gentler hand. But, we loved the dark chocolate served with it so much, we even asked for a spoon to lick it clean.

Then the piece de resistance -- the Chocolate Fondant (Rs 200), served with vanilla ice-cream, came juggling along, its belly waiting to be poked. We did the honours and kept at it one spoonful at a time till there was no more.u00a0Done up simply but smartly, A Chocolate Affair is sure to charm the younger lot. It surely seems here for the long haul.
