Located right on Park Street and spread across two floors with a seating capacity of 50 covers, Mamagoto boasts of edgy décor which exudes vibrancy and creates the perfect setting for a fun Asian eating experience. I have been to their Mumbai and Delhi outlets a number of times, and was eagerly looking forward to their…

Go Talli, not Broke:
Hangovers very often, are accompanied by the ‘Empty-Wallet Syndrome’. With taxes on alcohol reaching an obscene level, a drinking session outside is really getting taxing for young adults. And while I have no remedy for the hangovers, the EWS is now easily curable with the Talli menu at the Bodega Cantina Y-Bar at Park Street,…
The Baap of Barbeques: Barbeque Nation, Park Street:
Unlimited skewered kebabs, on a live grill in the middle of the table, is a scene straight out of my food dreams. And thankfully, unlike most other dreams, this one is pretty easy to fulfill. Because, with Barbeque Nation opening at Park Street, I don’t need to travel all the way to Salt Lake to…
The Park Street Newbies, all set to Steal the Show!
A few days back I posted on the Classic Park Street Pit-stops, (Classic Pit-Stops at Park Street:) eateries which have defined the original Food Street of Calcutta for ages now. So, to not post about the new entrants of Park Street would almost be a sin now. The new players are not just doing well, but…
Classic Pit-Stops at Park Street:
Park Street is the original food street of Calcutta. No matter how many new places open up at Sarat Bose Road, or Rajarhat, this is one basic fact which remains unchanged in the lives of us, the Calcuttans. Many of once-fancy restaurants of Park Street have now been closed down, or have been reduced to…
A Happy Me at the M Bar Kitchen:
One of the relatively new entrants in the Park Street food scene is the M Bar Kitchen. Notably, it is one of those places in the city which boast of serving food with Molecular Gastronomy tricks for the visual delight. Located well inside the Magma House, this place can be pretty tricky to locate, in…
Hakuna Matata: Gaiety in the Air, Happiness in the Tummy
Don’t worry, be happy! And eat some amazingly good food while you are at it. That, in a nutshell, is the feeling one would get at Hakuna Matata, Park Street. The bright yellows all around is an instant mood-lifter, and it is evident that a lot of thought has gone into the decor of the…
Au Bon Pain: Bite into Beautiful Bakes
Brilliant would be an understatement for the location of this bakery-cafe. And I have been here at least a dozen times, and every single time I have had a genuinely positive experience. I love the way the place looks, starting from the table layout, the wall murals, the menu and of course, their super comfortable…

A joint dream project by Urvika Kanoi and Akash Jaiswal, Bodega Cantina Y Bar at Park Street, is all set to transform the culinary map of the city. Urvika, owner of Bodega, dropped out of film school and joined Le Cordon Bleu, London and on successful completion of her course, bagged an enviable internship opportunity….
Gabbar’s Bar & Kitchen: Where Molecular Gastronomy meets Bollywood
I had heard and read too much about Gabbar’s to not pay a visit and check out for myself whether it’s worth the hype or not. I ordered almost all the things on the menu with the Molecular Gastronomy tag, and the theatrical quotient in all of them were amazing. Be it the Paani-puri, the…
Chapter 2: A Bite into the Past
Calcutta, (yes, that’s the name I prefer) was the hub of glittery nightlife from the 1940s till the 1970s, when the city would party all night long at Park Street, while most other cities would still be mostly unaware of the eclectic mix that good food and good music can be. But today, most of…
Aamlicious Festival@ Rajdhani Thali
We Indians have a special place for ‘Aam – the King of Fruits’ in our lives, and Aamras tops the list of summer dreams for many. On an invitation to Kolkata Food Bloggers, I visited Rajdhani, Park Street, to get a taste of their ongoing Aamlicious Festival. The place has quite a sizeable seating capacity,…
A Sweet Sunday Surprise: Cremecup.in
When Cremecup.in delivered a complimentary cake to my home on a Sunday evening, the weekend definitely turned much sweeter! They are an online bakery, offering a wide range of delicious sounding munchkins. So they are new in town, and it might be a good news to many that they are completely vegetarian. Their cheesecake menu…
Mocambo: The Original Steak House of Calcutta
Somethings are forever, and Mocambo certainly is. The dim red hued lights, the leather couches, the courteous attendants, the interesting menu, and most importantly the amazing food together spell magic. Last night I was in the mood for some seafood. So for appetizers we had their legendary Pepper Crab. For mains I had their Seafood…
