LOCATION
Located in Hitec City, ITC,Kohenur got Durgam Cheruvu lake on one side and the city’s business district on the other. It is considered as one of the ITC Hotels “Luxury Collections”.
AMBIENCE
For our team outing lunch we zeroed down to visit Golconda Pavilion,one of their fine dining restaurants which serves multi-cuisines. Two things that caught my eyes as I entered, there is elegancy at every corner and every corner gives you the vast sky view.
Before I proceed further,don’t miss the video on Insight of ITC Kohenur at the end.
Luckily we got one such corner that too with a pool view. After soaking into the aesthetics for few good mins, we headed to the salad and starters sections.
SALADS & APPETIZERS
In salads, we got from shrimptahini marinated shrimp to herb roasted chicken to curd fish to paprika lamb cauliflower salads. Thinking of them,makes me go drooling. Coming to starters,varities were more of fish,a little of chicken and few veg starters of potato, eggplant, zucchini and paneer. The best part was mostly all of them were either baked / grilled. But what came as dissappointing was that many of the starters were cold.
MAIN COURSE
Next we went for the main course. It got some mouth watering sides mainly in veg and a lesser in non veg. Biriyani was also available. Spinach corn was the best combo for me with the hot roti served live.
DESSERTS
It’s said that all well that ends well. But our ending was not so good. Dessert section highly dissapointed us. First of all you can’t pick up the dessert of our choice. You have to ask the staff to provide you. And now there were customers and staff in the ratio of 10:1 . So being only one staff we had to wait a long to get 2/3 desserts there too the lady who was serving didn’t showed any courtsey. So I was able to take only 3 desserts – baked youghurt, flourless cake and litchi verine. Taste wise though three of them satisfying and unique.
VERDICT
GolcondaP brought satisfaction to eyes with it’s elegancy but failed to bring satisfaction when it comes to food.
FYI: Lunch buffet costs INR 1300 exclusive of taxes.
