A Low-Key Fine Dining Experience At S’mores Dhanmondi
The Rangs Fortune Square building has become quite the hot spot in Dhaka over the last few months. From hosting the second branch of last year’s hit, Yum Cha District to accommodating the crazy line of Dominos, Rangs at Dhanmondi Road 2 has become “the place” serving your caffeine, dumpling craving and more.
Carver's - Deli & Smokehouse: The Hidden Gem at Gulshan
Dhaka, Mar 30 (UNB)- While winter in Bangladesh means barbeque season, it is quite the opposite in the USA. Their summer comprises of beaches, barbeque, and baseball. After looking far and wide for a space that would not only give off a backyard B.B.Q vibe but also serve such food, I came across Carver’s.
Beautiful Izakaya Part 2
I am so content with their food, ambiance and excellent customer service that I can’t stop myself from revisiting that place. Every time I meet my friends in Dhanmondi, this is the place I visit loyally. My friends and I ordered plenty of items which were Fried Nori Beef Tacos, Chicken Cheese Yaki, Spicy Chicken Ramen (pan fried chicken and slow boiled egg topped over fiery hot ramen soup) and Black Sesame Icecream. As promised before in my first article on Izakaya, I’ll be covering Deep Fried Nori Beef Tacos, Chicken Ramen and Black Sesame Icecream. So here they are.
Beautiful Izakaya !
Are you into Japanese cuisine? If yes, have you ever tried Japanese fusion food and that too in the unusual Banani/Gulshan area? Today’s write-up is about a famous restaurant in Dhanmondi. I am sure by this time most of you are already guessing the right name. Located in Dhanmondi, the name of the place is Izakaya and I would highly recommend this if you want to experiment with Japanese fusion food.
Cocos Nucifera
Dhaka, March 18 (UNB)- Belonging to a family of doctors have a lot of advantages, the major one being gaining health tips without the use of Google and Wikipedia for a change. Another one was being instilled the habit of eating nutritive food items and drinks like eating eggs, different types of fish and vegetables, drinking water and the list goes on. One habit that I have been following religiously till date is drinking green coconut water a.k.a. ‘Daab’er Pani’ and eating the White meat a.k.a. ‘Shash’ or ‘Malai’ since childhood. Let us have a look at the health benefits of coconut water.
Japanese Food Galore
Dhaka, Mar 14 (UNB) - Sushi Tei is not your average fusion sushi restaurant. So, it might not be everyone’s cup of tea. Upon entering, we were greeted in Japanese loudly by every member of the staff which is very unique in Bangladesh. The atmosphere was brightly lit, and it seemed like they could house over 100 customers at a time. The staff who was assigned to our table was knowledgeable about the menu and ensured that the food came promptly without any compromise to its presentation.
To the Choco - Chaa Lovers Out there!
Dhaka, Mar 7 (UNB) - Since childhood, I was fascinated by few usual and unusual food items. For example, I was crazy about Fuji Noodles (only the 80’s kids might remember this), Milk Tea aka Dudh Chaa and Tang. Unlike most of the kids, I was never much into chocolate. There used to be many lying in the refrigerator but I never eyed those. As I grew older, I somehow developed my liking for it, especially dark chocolate. Of course I like the usual ones but I am quite particular about those. My only constant craving since childhood is Milk Tea. I have been trying to get rid of this obsession but badly failed to do so.
A favorite late morning snack
Dhaka, Mar 5 (UNB)- ‘Piyaju’, also known as lentil fritters, has become a popular snack in Bangladesh over the years. It is generally made with different types of lentils a.k.a. daal, onion and coriander leaves but nowadays, many people also use vegetables such as potatoes and carrots. Piyaju is also a popular iftar item that pairs well with Chhola and Beguni. Over the last few years, I have seen this snack being served during late mornings as well as early evenings with tea. But it is best to have with a spicy dip a.k.a. chutney and a steamy cup of tea.
