World on my Platter...

..... Millhouse is the place to be...

Classic, elegant, delicate, succulent, juicy, creamy and moreover Fresh!!! are the few terms that define this newly opened place and the food.

Millhouse offers completely new gastronomical delights on the food explorer's platter; an experience which will am sure as a blogger will continue on... and on your steering too, I believe, can turn it onto one of favorite food junctions. A newly opened venture by three people; Jaydeep Mukherjee, Ajit Dhumal and Anand who have a rich background in hospitality have taken this initiative. While interacting with Jaydeep, a precise message which I captured, and to put as a "quote" "Glocal delicacies, simple food, with less experimentation, retaining the original flavors and minimizing wastage". * PS

Three types of seating arrangement, that of bar, cafe and a comfortable dining space...  three menus, one for beverage, food and sweets offering bakery products and hand crafted ice- creams. The list goes endless.

Chef Malavika Pratap & Jaydeep Mukherjee 



To begin with.. I opted for a fresh fruit concoction, the menu again is full of fresh fruit blended versions, apart from the mocktails which are made out of synthetic syrups that are available across in bounty.  

Another rule of three: Fresh , organic and mostly made in India ingredients rule the kitchen space. 
They source ingredients from NGO's, as part of a corporate social responsibility. The coffees in the menu are again, primarily of Indian origin, sourced from South India which again is vouched upon by connoisseurs.  The red rice used in risotto hails from regions in Gujarat and Maharashtra. Iodized table salt is replaced by natural mineral or rock salt and sugar too is organic.. all the efforts are inclined to serve pesticide free food. 

What I ate:

1. Citrus Kick: A blend of fresh oranges, apples and pineapple with a hint of ginger. Absolute refresher and a detox drink, loaded with Vitamin C.



2. Gooey grilled stuffed Mushrooms: another delicacy of those protein buttons stuffed with hazelnut, crumble, cheese and ginger marmalade


3. Cucumber and watermelon salad:  packed with goodness of chea seeds and fetta cheese and a hidden caramel crunch gives this a wow effect!! refreshing! rejuvenating! revitalizing!



4. Creamy Spaghetti, hand made you can opt for a three cheese, pesto, veggies.. whatever you are inclined for. 


5. Twice cooked Asian Spiced roast chicken:  delicately prepared with hours of love and hard work gone into it. A whole chicken is soaked in a brine for 12 hours, then brushed on with butter and roasted in low heat. When the meat gets cooked, the surface is again brushed upon with honey, butter and sesame seeds and roasted in very high temperature for a very short while in order to caramelize honey imparting a smokey flavor. This is served with yellow and green zucchini, broccoli, peppers and mashed potatoes. 




6. from the Dessert Menu... Beauty lies in the eyes of beholder... but this visual I am sure is quite inviting, raising your tempting antennas on a high and get ready for indulgence!!
 
World's best banoffe pie.. top of pop! bananas and fresh in house cream

Baked Philadelphia Cheese cake.. crowned with berries!! 
So to be precise.. that was World on my platter!! Italian pasta, Mediterranean salad, American Chicken and dessert with Indian ingredients.. powered by Chef Malavika Pratap who has extensively worked with leading hospitality chains.

3rd Floor, Ahmedabad One mall


*PS: (Food wastage in the aggressively growing F & B industry is something we seriously need to look upon ..together!!! )

Upcycle Concrete

  Upcycle is an interesting "GREEN" practice nowadays followed by many!! For goods and commodities its good, but in the era of shifting sands, preferences, fast evolutionary changes, the need and demand for more excitement the malls, unlike old markets, have a very short life span. A decade is quite long, then they slowly organically fade out. Ahmedabad, unlike the metros is quick silver. The life span of malls is shorter than those in metros.. few which have swept off infront of our eyes in two decades are; Gulmohar, Fun Republic, Gallops etc. Gallops though with best brands, infrastructure couldn't survive the cost concious market. Two days ago I happened to step into Iscon mega Mall, Mega like the word suggests, its gigantic. Reliance hyper market was inaugurated on 15th August 2006 by Sh Mukesh Ambani, it was his big bang entry into retail segment. In this mega structure, today hardly 10% area is functional, rest is all unused.  If Westside and Reliance are functional...
