Mynt,Taj West End
This post is long overdue.Anyways,here goes.
I had won a Taj gift voucher thanks to a Deutsche Bank slogan contest. And when the time came to decide a place for Amma’s birthday treat, it was an obvious choice. Selecting a restaurant from the three Taj Hotels in the city was not that obvious though, and we finally decided to try out Mynt at the Taj West End. The place servers Italian, Mediterranean, Lebanese and Indian cuisines. A good thing was that they had this brunch buffet on Sundays so we didn’t exactly have to go through the entire menu and order the cheapest/cheaper items. We had booked a table in advance, and I think that was a good idea considering the place was close to full. Although its called the Sunday Brunch, its open till the afternoon and you can easily go there for your lunch (as we did). Frankly, doing a review on the food is tough. But in one word,it would be “Variety”! The number of items on the buffet is just mind boggling,you could make a full meal out of just the starters,or the desserts or one of the specialized cuisine counters.
Started off with a chicken soup,which was pretty good. The starters section literally had an endless selection, Indian chats, Salads, kababs, it had it all. It was tough to chose from, in the end I went with some safe bets like the Hawaiian salad and tried out a few never-heard-of-it-before stuff as well. There’s a section where you can make your own salad as well, they keep ingredients that you can mix and match to your tastes. We didn’t even venture that side, not worth wasting time and precious appetite for.
