Delectable Food at ‘Mint Leaf’
Mint Leaf was started by Chef Raminder Malhotra and is known for its family oriented casual dining environment. The place is located in the Central Point Mall very close to the IFFCO Chowk Metro Station in Gurgaon. Mint Leaf has a complete North Indian Menu. The ambiance is cozy and the furniture is comfortable for family dining. What makes this place different than others is its food. The food is very delicious and would remind you to come back again.
Virgin Mojito – Classical drink with lime and mint leaves. The sugar was not complete muddled and gives this drink a crunchy twist.
Shikanjavi – One of the best drinks here, the Shikanjavi is not too sweet nor sour, just perfect with the exotic masala.
Kiwi Lemonade – A rare combination of Kiwi and Lime, very subtle flavor of the Kiwi.
Strawberry Lime – Another unique combination of Strawberry pulp and Lime.
Green Breeze – Great combination of fruit juices, bright green in color. The salt on the rims balanced the flavors. Loved the drink!
Cheena Anjeer Ke Kebab – Meshed cheena or Panner with anjeer embedded in it. The Kebab broke at the slightest touch. A very rare dish found only at Mint Leaf.
Sindhi Aloo – Deep fried whole Aloo or Potatoes with chat masala on top. A very chat-patta snack!
Panner Tikka Multani – Soft Paneer Cubes in a cream based marination. The smokey flavor of the tandoor was embedded deep inside. Comes with tomatoes, onions and capsicum.
Khumani aur Bael Ke Kofte – Absolutely love this dish, made from dried apricots or Khumani with Bael inside a Kofta formation. The gravy was rich and a bit sweet. Amazing in taste, a must try.
Dal Makhani – Creamy Dal Makhani with a bit sour taste.
Subz Punjrattani – Mixed vegetables like broccoli, mushrooms, capsicum, babycorn and so on. Loved the use of spices here as it added another dimension to the dish.
Zauq-e-Shahi – Small Gulab Jamuns in Rabri, the jamuns were hot. What a sumptuous dessert!
Phirni – Delectable Phirni which was not overly sweet. The presentation could have been much better!
The food at Mint Leaf lively truly to its taste. All the items were delicious and some even one of its kind. The service was great at all frontiers.
