For people with Hulk-like hunger comes Sequel a multicuisine eatery that has just paraded into Defence Colony

Food, since times immemorial, has had more to do with generosity than anything else, except love. Sequel repeats this bond effortlessly with its extensive menu, lavish seating and kingsize platters. Every new restaurant claims to be authentic, they've upscale decor, quick service and everything else that's needed to make it successful, but only a few can make it to the memoirs. Here's why Sequel does.u00a0


Food: Absolutely flawless, this restaurant scores high on its thick, well-stocked menu. It clubs culinary preparations from European, Western, Mediterranean shores and has Indian cuisines, too. We settled at the second floor for our fuelling session. Packed in a leather folder, the fat index needs at least 15 minutes for a scroll-through. We began with mezze and tapas platter (Rs 315 each) and light-like-a-feather starter fungi fritto (Rs 245). We liked the condiments, dips and sauces served along with it. Apart from these vegetarian classic, we would recommend spicy crab cakes (Rs 545), Nizami murg Shikhampuri (Rs 325) and double cooked smokey duck (Rs 545) for non-vegetarians. In the main course, vegetarian chimi changa (Rs 345), badshahi kofta (Rs 295) and Buddha's delight (Rs 345) are the sure-shot mood-lifters. Carnivores would dig the Allapey mackarel (Rs 465), Sri Lankan chicken curry (Rs 375), nargisi kofta (Rs 425), yaki soba (Rs 245) and Moroccan lamb tagine (Rs 465) with breads, rice or noodles. For after-mains, the warm chocolate mousse with cinnamon ice cream (Rs 225), their trio of kulfi (Rs 225) and wasabi ice cream with lychees (Rs 195) worked just fine. Biiiiig burp.


Drinks: As prolific as the cuisine, the bar menu takes a trip to the finest breweries of the world. The racks are filled with white spirits like vodka and gin, and a varied labels of rum, tequila and cognac. Wine lovers, there is much more for you. If you're not into alcohol, try Sequel spice (Rs 215) and Silk Route (Rs 195). If you want to build your appetite, gorge on with the pepper rasam soup (Rs 145). There is a special Twenty20 Cricket World Cup menu, too.u00a0


Ambience: Spread across three storeys, each floor has been designed differently keeping in mind the varied tastes of India. Leafy patterns on the wooden walls give a graceful look, while the lounge music gives a modern feel to the place, done up with dim lights. The crowd is a mix of families and friends, but it's advisable to reserve a seat in advance to avoid being a part of the long queue. A final piece of advice wear pants that are loose at the waist, or the fly will come off on its own.u00a0
