But on occasions when I get the chance, I do enjoy our native food stuffs such as Mixture, Ribbon Pakkoda. All nice fried items which can be unhealthy when had in large quantities.



Recently I have had the chance to sample the GoodFud.co's tasty box thanks to its founders. Brilliant taste sampling box which contained Millet Thatai, Ragi Ribbon Muruku, Millet Cookies and finally Multi Grain Laddu. All regular native items prepared with a healthy twist. Millet seems to be forgotten hero in this day and age which has been utilised quite brilliantly to put up some tasty items. Also on a side note for people allergic to Gluten, can enjoy these treats thanks to the saviour MILLETS!

My pick from this sample box was the Millet Cookies, which was tasty and at the same time it could be considered healthy. Apart from it the Millet Thatai and Ragi Ribbion Muruku were good. A word of mention would be for the Thatai as I had made the food shots a day earlier and had forgotten to replace them back in the air tight packs they were supplied in. I had my doubts the following day when I had sampled em for the crispiness, but they retained a decent amount of crispiness which needs to lauded. Finally the biggest plus was the date of expiry being mentioned on these food stuffs which I have seen to be missing in these kind of food stuffs which have been prepared the conventional method.

Kudos to the people behind this venture for bringing healthy foods right to the doorstep.

*A review about a place holds good only for 6 months as there can be a change in quality and quantity of the food, the service and the staff, due to reasons best known only to them. So kindly consider these factors while visiting the places.

I was here with a friend at the newly opened outlet of Cafe Coffee Day called the CCD Square at Kader Nawaz Road, Nungumbakkam. Actually we were waiting for a friend to join us. Since we both were not in the mood for coffee, we decided to have a light snack.

Food:
Since it was just the two of us, we ordered French Fries in BBQ sauce and Crispy Chicken in BBQ sauce. We were given the option to select how the BBQ sauce was to be served : BBQ sauce along the side or mixed with the dish. My friend thought it would be bold and new to try the mixed variant.

Firstly the fries when mixed with BBQ Sauce became very soggy and chewy. Not a worthy combination. But as for the Crispy Chicken, it remained crispy inspite of the sauce and tasted good Definitely worth the order. I did not get to try-out the other stuff. Maybe some other time.

Ambiance:
The place looks swanky, posh and screams out luxury.

Service:
Service is really good, also a note, it feels like you are pampered by an air-hostess!

Price:
Posh ambiance plus air-hostess service sends the price sky-rocketing to Rs 390 for the two dishes.
CCD has really tried hard to re-invent itself in a luxury avatar, however I still find the CCD tag tied down to cheaper coffee and poor service at the regular outlets.
