K3 in JW Marriott Aerocity is hands down the
best Sunday Brunch place in Delhi NCR in my opinion. They have a rotating theme
for their Sunday Brunch, which changes every month, and the theme for April is ‘Mitti Ki Khooshbu’. The name suggests
the theme is something to do with Indian food and how the food is closer to our
roots. Not just the food, but the concept, the cutlery used, the presentation,
the menu- everything talks about the theme K3 has for its Sunday Brunch for
April.
INDIAN
Talking first about the theme and the Indian section devoted
to it, this section was done up really beautifully with spices and dried red
chilli for the presentation, and a standee in front with all the dishes on the
menu written on it. I cannot even begin to explain how interesting and
mouth-watering each dish was. By ‘each’, I really do mean EACH. I’m a person
who would choose European and Mediterranean over Indian at any given day, but
on this particular day Indian outshone the rest. It really was the best. Gosht Sakura Kebab was a soft minced
lamb kebab which came in a small earthen bowl. Dishes in the main course were Aloo Ka Salan killing it with its
flavour, Bhuna Lasan Palak giving no
scope for error with its delicious kick of flavour, Baghara Gosht Pulao with the soft pieces of mutton in the yummy
aromatic rice, and my two most favourite items from the menu- Kunde Ka Dum Gosht and Sondhe Masale Ka Jhinga. Oh my god! I
do not have words to describe these. They were simply out of this world! Even
when I was absolutely stuffed with my appetizers and food from the live counter,
I still hogged on the Indian food like there is no tomorrow. It really did live
up to being the core theme.
EUROPEAN
From the European section, they give you a bit of
everything- different kinds of cheese and dips, grilled options, pastas and
pizzas, lamb chops, an array of freshly baked breads, a whole variety of hot
European food with pies, lasagne, grilled chicken, and the list goes on. My
favourite was of course, the thin crust pizza, the vegetable lasagne, Ham Pie, and the Focaccia Bread. The
Lamb Chops being absolutely smacking shouldn’t come as a surprise.
ORIENTAL
The Oriental section was impeccable! Honey lamb, crisp
wontons, chicken dimsums, and the made to order pork and duck. The Char Siew Pork and the Roasted Duck were the highlight of my
meal. A crisp exterior, loaded and loaded with flavour that has been seeped in
so well, such nice juicy meat- an entire package that leaves you wanting for
more, and makes you come back to this beauty of a place! Stole my heart,
really. Tried a little bit of main course too from here and I’m all praises for
that too.
LIVE COUNTERS
K3 has the maximum number of most exciting live stations I
have ever seen. The Galauti Kebab
counter was the winner for me, but the appetizer spread prepared on the tawa
was also not far behind. A live sandwich counter, a counter for Singapore Rice and Chicken, one for
chaat, one for Chhole Kulche, for fried proteins. The fried prawns were a
delight, the Singapore Rice and Chicken were a gorgeous meal by themselves-
with the two accompany sauces, the Galauti melted in the mouth and the ulte
tawe ka parantha was superb as well. Nothing came as a surprise to me- it was
all brilliant, as expected.
DESSERTS
We come to my most favourite section now- desserts! K3 hands
down has the best desserts section in a five-star hotel! Both for choice of
dessert and variety. From a Chocolate Mousse, 5 kinds of cupcakes, 4 kinds of
macarons, chocolate truffle pastry, fresh fruit tart, live counter for crepes, fresh fruit trifle pudding, fresh
fruits, white chocolate and milk chocolate fondue, blueberry pudding, coconut
cake, New York Cheesecake, Beetroot Halwa, Crème Brulee, Laddoos, Malai Chop, to 6 ice cream flavours and so
many sorbet flavours, with kulfi, and the mind-blowing dressings and add-ons
for these. I haven’t even covered half of the desserts here. It’s a paradise
for people with even slightly inclining towards having a sweet tooth. What
stood out for me specifically in the desserts section was a Raspberry and Green
Tea based cake. Can you imagine the balance of flavours in this?!
The bar was set up in the spirit of the theme and they had
really nice earthen pots decorated and filled with different ingredients used
in drinks. The Aam Panna was one of
the best I’ve had- not at all sweet and served nice and chilled. They also had
a vodka based cocktail with achaar in it that was curated for the theme, and
was it delicious! The drinks made for this theme were just of my type- not
overtly sweet and very different from the usuals.
JW Marriott Aerocity is one of the finest five-star
properties we have in Delhi NCR and K3 only backs that up with such great
effort and quality. The staff is super sweet and helpful, the food is to die
for- they have nothing going wrong for them. You must must visit K3 for their
Sunday Brunch! I guarantee you will come and thank me later J
