REVIEW | ALL AMERICAN DINER



On a hot Sunday afternoon, when the sun was in all minds to burn us to the ground, we decided it would be a good idea to head out for a spot of brunch. I have been hearing about All American Diner for the longest time, mixed reviews, great breakfast, brilliant interiors and so on.

We made our way through the beautiful India Habitat Centre, where the well-known diner was housed, only to come face to face with a massive crowd-in-waiting. Sigh. I guess everyone else had the same idea as us this Sunday afternoon.

To be honest, we weren’t too impressed. The food was okay, nothing spectacular or decadent. We ordered a plate of Belgian waffles, a Pierre’s French Toast Combo and a Mixed Grill Non-Vegetarian Platter. For drinks, we ordered a berry smoothie, a cold coffee and a mango smoothie (I think!).

The Mixed grill platter was the king of all and disappeared from our table in exactly 2 minutes. We didn’t particularly enjoy the waffles or the French toast, having had better versions of it in other restaurants. The waffles were dry and clunky and so was the French toast.

Would I go there again? I might just do. The décor was great and I’d probably avoid rush hours next time. Maybe sample some real food now instead of the breakfast.

Any food suggestions?

MAKE IT | SPRAY PAINTED JAR CANDLES (part 02)

In a previous post , we made beautiful spray painted heart jars. Here is part two of the tutorial where I turn those same jars into decadent smelling candles. You need: Candle wax of your choice Candle wick Mason Jar (Follow the tutorial here ) Fragrance Oil  Before you begin, be sure you have the appropriate type and size of the wick. If your jar is wide, make sure wick is wide enough in diameter to burn optimally. And, if its narrow and long, make sure the length of the wick is sufficient enough.  Measure out the amount of wax needed. For this project, I melted the wax in a make-shift double boiler made from two metal containers—one small and one large. Fill water in the large container. Put the wax in the smaller container and place it in the larger one. Melt the wax on low to medium-low heat. Never leave melting wax unattended! While the wax is melting, secure your wick to the bottom of your mason jar. Dip the end in the melting wax and a...

THE MIXTAPE PROJECT / 01

I've been working on this series idea for a while now and finally it's here! The Mixtape Project, a series to document interesting people, their music choices and their personal quirk. Here is my first guest for today... MAYANK KUMAR / DELHI If you could pick one, which superhero would you be?  I don't really follow the superhero concept but if I had to, I guess i'd pick Batman. That's simply because of his sharp mind and his ability to solve humongous issues with just his mere intellect. What would your DJ name be?  Can't imagine myself behind a console wearing earphones bigger than my face. But I guess 'Max' would do? Or just M? What's your favourite joke?  A jealous haryanavi man opened his own momos shop right next to the famous 'Yo! China' and named it 'Yo! Bhi China'. What's the weirdest nickname people call you? Mickey. My first birthday cake had a Mickey Mouse on it. And that's where the name ...
