The Honest Menu @Onesta

-


I was literally about to doze off in my class when Kumki/Prathap shows me the photographs of his lunch. If only looks can kill someone, he would have been ashes by now. He and his food-date had gone to Onesta(Onestà translates to honesty in Italian), Semmancheri, Chennai. 
 
Onesta has the unlimited offer going on. For unlimited pizza, deserts and one beverage, it will set you back from INR 369(for veg.) and INR 469(for non-veg.) per individual. The other option will burn your pockets by INR 529(for veg.) and INR 629(for non-veg.) per individual for unlimited servings of the entire menu. 
 For appetizers, they found themselves with fish fingers and Crispy Chicken with BBQ sauce.

For pizza, one will be given a choice between the normal crust and thin crust base. They have wide varieties of pizza: roast chicken, chicken alfredo, peppers on pepperoni, mayo tuna, bacon & prawn, wasabi mayo chicken, spinach & panner, pear & mascarpone,3 cheese with mushrooms and many more exciting flavors.They had ordered themselves chicken stuffed crust margarita pizza. As the name suggests, the crust was stuffed with chicken and the pizza simply melted in the mouth (his words). 


 For dessert, choose from tiramisu, pineapple mousse, orange mousse, lime & coconut choux (éclair filled with homemade lemon custard dipped in flakes of coconut), lemon mousse, chocolate orange choux (éclair filled with homemade lemon custard dipped in dark chocolate and orange zest), chili chocolate tart (a tart comprising of chocolate, caramel and red paprika as the name goes), caramel walnut tart, cappuccino mousse, black forest pudding and other deserts perfect for your sweet tooth.
These two had ordered berry baked cheesecake, Tiramisu (a popular coffee-based Italian dessert made with mascarpone cheese and cocoa which Kumki wasn’t a big fan of), Chocolate mousse and Berry Mousse. 

 The beverage they are ordered was virgin mojito (a refreshing drink with a blend of mint, lemon, and sugar).

Cafe Time

Cafes are the best place one could probably imagine when we wish to have a good dinner with our loved ones. Here is where we slowly start drowning in the magic of soothing light music and even the mere thought of being surrounded by magnificent smell of flowers along with two glasses of wine is just impeccable.  Fortunately, all the above stated views are imaginary in my life since I got to have a great brunch with my friends at this famous cafe joint called 'That Madras Place', Kasthuri Bai Nagar, Adyar, Chennai. The prices touch the heights of sky but it got compensated by the incredible taste of food. The cafe is best known for its pastas and burgers.  Out of all our orders, jalapenos mac 'n cheese pasta topped the list. Any cheese lover will wipe up the plate in no time since the macaroni was full of thick creamy sauce along with jalapenos and some veggies. The dish was served along with a toasted wheat bread. Jalapenos Mac n Cheese   Chick...

Who doesn't love Maggi ?? That 2 minutes love is honestly a blessing. Unlimited Maggi all for INR 100*. Say what? That's happening at Maggivala, Kodapakkam. With simply pleasing ambiance and warm lights, Maggivala is much more than good old sodium Maggi. At Maggivala, choose from different varieties of Maggi, pizza, and milkshakes. We had the pleasure of trying 4 varieties of Maggi, a Maggi pizza ( Yes! You read it right. Maggi pizza) and a milkshake. Maggi. Indian takka Maggi - Honestly it tasted likes sambar. The magic of garam masala and all those spices. Indian Tadaka Maggi  Jalapeno Maggi - Simply good old Maggi with generous shavings of Jalapeno. Jalapeno Maggi  Garlic cheese Maggi - If you happen to be a big fan of garlic bread, you will absolutely love this Maggi. Old school Maggi with cheese and garlic. MUST TRY - Maggi Virgin (INR 70)- The best variation of Maggi on the menu. Maggi virgin is a perfect harmony of spices( lots and lots of pepper)...

If you carrot all.

Ooty is a popular tourist spot of Nilgiris. Despite being a part of South India, Ooty offers a sub-tropical climate which makes it perfect for cultivation of carrots, tea and cabbage. If you have ever been to Ooty, you would have seen innumerous vendors selling packets of fresh carrots at a mere cost of INR 20-40. Carrots. Are you cringing at the sight of this word? So am I. Carrots are nutrient rich and low in calories. They are packed with Vitamins (especially Vitamin A which is good for our eyes). However, you already know this. There’s even a day for carrots (April 4 th every damn year).  “What you see depends on how you view the world. To most people this is just dirt. To a farmer it’s potential.”Here, a group of laborers manually pluck carrots from the soil. These laborers are paid on a day-to-day basis.  These carrots are roughly packed in jute bags and transplanted into a factory area where the carrots are washed. The carrots are thrown over the...
