Another gastro pub
We aren’t complaining! We like the idea of a new pub opening up every other month. So now, it’s time for you to check out G Bar. Traditional pub grub seems to be its USP with sandwiches, steaks and other kinds of finger food on offer. And if you’re looking for some action, check out their amateur music competition on Wednesdays, heavy metal nights on Thursdays and live performances on other days of the week. Plus they have happy hours too!

Of olives and high spirits
It’s time to raise a toast and enjoy that sip of high life. Grand Mercure is hosting Olives and Martinis, a delightful week of indulgence for all you martini lovers. Some say the olive is the best part of a martini and martini aficionados claim that garnishing the beverage with olives gives it an extra kick of flavour. Keeping this in mind, Grand Mercure has introduced a menu with varied choices of martinis paired with olives exclusively designed by their executive chef.

Wishes come true
Wish for a grill and watch it come true on your platter. Absolute Barbecues is where you will find the Wish Grill. It’s called so because it can dish out any kind of flavour you like, or so they claim. Choose from 16 varieties of assorted vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes that include rabbit meat, emu, quail, baby octopus and ladyfish, among other exotic treats. Apart from the wish grill, the concept also features a live table grill with a hot plate in it, where six starters such as prawns, fish, chicken, mutton and paneer are served. Then there’s the main course, dessert and of course a bar that offers some interesting cocktails from the 70s and 80s.
