I chanced upon visiting Zamooza with family recently after I
had been looking at reviews of places to visit. I was impressed with their
rating of 4.4 from over 300 votes! That’s a big achievement considering how the
competition exists in the F&B industry in Delhi NCR!
We were greeted by Mr. Vishesh
Bachan Nanda, the person who handles the restaurant. I am impressed with his
professionalism and knowledge of food. Having had us seated, we went through
the menu. An eclectic taste I must admit. The kitchen boasts of 4 main chefs
who handle beautiful crafted items from cuisines belonging to Italy, Turkey,
Thailand and one more country. They are from the house of Zuropa,
We started with their signature
item, the Litchi Wantons. It was the
first time I had something like this. It was unique and I like anything unique.
The after taste was similar to what you feel after eating chaat!
While sipping beer, we asked for
starters like Grilled fish with chilly
parmesan which was accompanied with a garlic aioli dip. It was excellent.
The Crispy vegetables for the
vegetarians were ok with a south Asian touch.
Nachos with cheese, guacamole and sour cream are made so well here.
The cheesiness of the nachos makes it a great starter with drinks. We ordered Chicken Skewers, which came with a
super presentation. The chicken was made to perfection with a hint of
lemongrass flavour. Really good! The Thai
satay, again presented very well, had broccoli, mushrooms and tofu. A
similar affair like the chicken skewers with a hint of lemon grass again. Great
as well!
The Black Pepper Prawn was garnished with sautéed onions and oregano.
The prawns were soft, juicy and flavourful. The Chicken
Quesadilla was superb as well. Very authentic in taste! For the veggies, we
asked for Vegetarian Fajita. It came
with salsa, guacamole and sour cream. I took a dig into it and the combination
of the rice with guacamole and salsa was beautiful!
Moving to the Turkish delights,
we had Lamb Kibbeh. The lamb was
probably marinated with Turkish spices, because it emanated a very Turkish kind
of flavour, which was good, considering, they got it this close to the original
kibbeh!
For the main course, we had the
pleasure to ask for Chicken Snappe Polo.
This Italian affair with a mustard sauce base was awesome. The chicken blended
so well with this special sauce. I simply loved it. The Shistouk was made great as well. The chicken was soft and had a
beautiful flavour.
Since I am a fish guy, I asked
for the Sea Bass Pilpil. This
Italian dish was served with a superb presentation. I did not regret I ordered
this. The sea bass was fresh and soft. It was served with a portion of mashed
potatoes and sauce. The combined taste of the bass and potato with the sauce
was simply magnificent. Probably the best I have had! Truly recommended.
For dessert, we had Waffles with Nutella, maple &
strawberry syrup and melted butter. And Belgian
chocolate. Both were presented very well and tasted even better.
The overall impression of Zamooza:
Décor: Nice, subtle, simple
Food: Probably the best in town, never liked all items at
one go anywhere but here!
Presentation: Superb
Service: Good
