Many of our food enthusiasts have always gushed about a particular dish they have had at a restaurant. Arguments have broken out over who serves the best Choley Bhature or the perfect Butter Chicken, the best Pan Asian or the most authentic Italian. But it always had been the restaurant that has come to the fore. The Top Chef awards shifts the attention to the leader in the kitchen instead. The person who creates the delightful delicacies that tickle your taste buds.

A Brainchild of the well experienced trio at Delhi Gourmet Club, Sourish Bhattacharya, Atul Sikand and Rocky Mohan bring to you the second edition of hugely popular Top Chef Awards. Ranging across different cuisines, the awards are divided into both 5 Stars and standalones. Selected by an eminent panel of Judges which comprise of Vir Sanghvi, Chef Manjit Gill, Chef Manish Mehrotra, Yangdup Lama, Sid Mathur, Osama Jalali, Chef Girish Krishnan and Chef Ravitej Nath the list throws up some delightful insights into some of the places where the Chefs never get highlighted. Some places like Yum Yum Cha and Carnatic Cafe where you might go gaga over the food yet have no idea about the person who puts the delicacies out that gets highlighted.

We assemble at Le Meridien Gurgaon’s all day Cafe to experience last year winner Chef Tanveer Kwatra’s decadent creations as Sourish Bhattacharya declared the awards open for voting. You can cast your vote at www.topchefawards.com

Sitting by the rooftop overlooking the waterfront, @oliveandseaftl is the perfect embodiment of Mediterranean food for our trip to Fort Lauderdale.  We started off with the Mezze platter which features not only the regulars including hummus, labneh, tzatziki, baba ganoush, there is also some bulgur tabbouleh and red pepper walnut relish served with some house bread, pita and lavaash.  Although there are quite a few fresh salads packed with Mediterranean flavours including one with mixed greens, goat cheese, honey roasted Squash, walnuts, apples and literally topped off with Pomegranate molasses, we tried out the Charred Crispy Octopus served with a Garlic labneh, Green Olive Tapenade and Crispy Potatoes.  For the mains, we also got ourselves some skewers cooked perfectly and served with some Tahini and a Coriander Chili relish.
Mediterranean pizzas are definitely an interesting item and we got ourselves a Smoked Eggplant and Mozzarella pizza served along with some Urfa peppers.  #snsxusa #saltandsandals #fortlauderdale #olive #sea #oliveandsea #america #florida #foodphotography #foodwriter #foodblogger #medditeranean #medditeraneanfood #foodie
We headed over to @evenkeelasolas in Fort Lauderdale to try out some fresh seafood, offering a modern take on Floridian Coastal cuisine. The restaurant has a casual yet trendy ambiance, with both indoor and outdoor seating. It's located on one of the numerous piers dotting Fort Lauderdale's waterways  We tried out the Oysters served with hot sauce, tarragon and lime along with a smoked fish dip and a shrimp ceviche. We followed it up with Himachi Poke Gyoza Tacos, grilled Octopus and a hot Lobster Roll. We finished it of all with a gigantic Bloody Mary.  #snsxusa #saltandsandals #foodphotography #foodblogger #travelwriter #travelwithme #traveldiaries #florida #miami #fortlauderdale
Our first cruise from the states was onboard the Independence of the Seas with @royalcaribbean from Miami to the Bahamas with two stops at Nassau and at their private island, CocoCay.  The cruise was our perfect 4 night holiday featuring a whole lot of food, drink and fun. Stay tuned for our stories and do let us know if you have any questions regarding a cruise with Royal Caribbean.  #SnSXUSA #SnSXMiami #SnSXRoyalCaribbean #cruise #royalcaribbean #saltandsandals

I am never a fan of getting myself clicked but a tryst with history had a fan girl moment in me.
🏵️
During my graduation in history from Delhi University, I was a big fan of Roman history. So when I was actually in a historical place right out of my books, I couldn't stop myself from getting?

Often listed amongst the best beaches in the world, Anse Lazio in Praslin, Seychelles truly open gates to altogether new world. And let me tell you, reaching here was quite a journey. One has to reach the bottom of the hill to Zimbabwe either by car or bus, then one has to trek over a large forested jungle clad hill and along some way before you reach the beach. But the journey is well worth the effort with views that take your breath away perfect with fine white sands and gorgeous turquoise waters that are so clear you can watch the fish swim around you, it's no surprise Anse Lazio is frequently called 'the best beach in the world'.

Sniffing is one of the essential steps to enjoying the flavour of any new drink. Sniffing opens up a new array of flavours that you can experience on your palate.

When traveling, definitely discover a Beverage destination. We headed to the @Takamaka Rum Seychelles distillery with @Creole Travel Services where we fell in love with the slow pace, exquisite beach and two barrel aged rums. The Extra Dark is aged twice, first in French Oak and then in reused Bourbon casks for three years and the St. Andre which has been aged for eight years in American Bourbon casks. Which one should we get back for tasting?
