New Bombay


Time to critique some foodie joints... well, lately ive been to lazy to do anything so havent been posting much... anyways... tuesday last week, me and a friend decided to go check out this new joint at the Columns infront of RCBC. It was raining cats and dogs that evening...

...so like with most of the metro, a lil downpour will create rivers out of highways! and for some strange reason, whenever it rains, cars seem to double (gremlins?!) yikes!!! ...resulting in mega horrendous traffic! anyways you can see what were have to brave to, to get our fill!

Originally our plan was just to get some MSG ridden chinois foodie...but by the time we crossed the Makati bridge, it was already 10 and geez most of the restos were packed! Driving around, we ended up at this deserted place at the foot of COlumns tower 1 at the intersection of Ayala and Buendia Ave. It was okay... although i should say im not overly satisfied with what we ordered but for the price i guess its okay... =P

The place is New Bombay: Authentic Indian Cuisine... the place was deserted as it was already 10+ pm and according to one of the servers, they close at 1130! we ordered our fare, Lamb Beryani, Chicken Curry and Roti. I already ate before leaving the house, as my buddy got stuck in traffic before and that god i did, otherwise i wouldve wilted, curled and died from hunger! Food took forever to prepare considering we were the only ones there... but kudos to the interior, (i have to say something nice too =P)... the restroom, umm... lets not talk about it! But i likey the chairs and tables! at least they spent on it although they couldve at least invested on fresh flowers (asthers even!), dont you think cheap silk flowers from China are so sooo depressing!

Food was so so... maybe ive tasted better...but it was generally okay... hmm... i don't want to blabber further so... all in all, i wasn't satisfied... but you can always try it right! Overall, i give it 7.5 out of 10 for the ambiance, its generally tasteful but they can do more... i love love love the furniture though...(tacky but i like it), for the food.. well around 6 and the price is very manageable. The service?! well they started out nice i would've given them a 7, but they actually told us that we should leave and finish up already since they close at 1130! wtf... you just don't do that to a customer right?! so i give them a 1 for trying... hmmm...and the restroom, well... lets just say... thanks for trying =)

...you can check it out for yourself...maybe, the rain has dampened their service...

p.s. thats my sexy back! hahaha =P
