Apart from the beautiful Mughal Era Fort and the lake, if Hauz Khas Village is famous for something else then ,it is undoubtedly the famous Hauz khas village market. One of the key players in this market is Cafe Out of the Box. Brainchild of Mr.Priyank Sukhija and Mr. Umang Tewari, this place wears a very lively look and also gives an energetic vibe. The café can accommodate a fairly good gathering and also has an alluring outdoor dining area which gives a picturesque view of the Hauz Khas Lake. A fairly good job has been on the interiors. The café also features a big screen which provides a perfect setting to enjoy your favourite game. Also, the peppy in-house was good enough to make anyone groove to it.
Coming to food , the café has a very vast menu which is boosting a variety of dishes.
We started of with a host of small bites that entices you with drinks. Baked Chicken cheese nachos, had three distinct flavour of spicy chicken, mozzarella cheese and crunchy nachos.The Chicken quesadillas proved to be a decent starter, though we felt a bit more of melting cheese and use of kidney beans in the stuffing could do wonders to the dish. The other starters that require a special mention for the vegetarians,Lebanese Mezze platter with Hummus and tzatziki dip.The non vegetarian starters are Fish and Chips and Fried calamari served in the cocktail glass.
We decided to sink our teeth into their signature Blueberry cheesecake. It was just the way an authentic cheesecake is meant to be,not too sweet and had an acidic essence due to blueberry in it.
In a nutshell,Out of the box has managed to stand out of many eateries in the area due to many reasons. Whether it be the classy ambiance or incomparable line up of dishes, it has set its mark among the most preferred places for hangout in this latest cult village of capital.
The décor of this place is a good reason to visit. The lighting is dim and goes really well with woody texture of everything here including seating, walls, tables etc. In all everything looks great as a whole ambiance for a nice dining experience.
