Well this is a late post..been caught with the good n bad .. But this I really had to do
Me n my girls had a lunch date and we thought we should visit the new overhyped and publicized fatmans cafe
Its a small cozy place .. Quirky colors bright blues and greens and whole lot of white .. Fatman frames on the wall...I m designer .. And when I enter any place my mind starts imagining how could this place look otherwise..and fatmans had a lot of design scope .. Boring hanging lamps which have been there for decades now..in the facade entry.. Kind of a turn of.. Modern interiors with old school lamps....and fresh colors with cozy feeling..somehow doesn't go well... love the white oak finish on the tables though..
The moment we took a seat .. The place had kind of a weird smell..could be because its a small enclosed space with lot of meat n sea food happening..but I think these issue have been dealt with very finely these days..and I have designed a restaurant so I know its not unachievable.. It was a disappointment to have foul smell in the place..
There was one man show happening .. One guy managing everything..they are low on staff.. While the owner just stares..
Moving to real topic of interest .. The question now is how good is the food .. Well it was a pretty interesting menu .. New different options ..
We called for watermelon juice , fresh lime water , ceaser salad ( minus the bacon) and jacket potato with corn
The watermelon juice was nice and fresh..
The salad had nicely cooked tender chicken nicely marinated , boiled eggs and lettuce.. I would like some veggies there..just to tease the palate ... The quantity was generous could easily make up for whole meal..
The jacket potato with corn.. Only 4 pieces were served .. Not so flavorful.. Very low on salt and very heavy on price (240/-)
Last on the list fresh lime water.. Well I'm particularly coming to this one last as it was the main reason for a turn off .. Hair in my drink..
I need not say more.. And there ends the lunch
I may give this place one more try but may after a few months..where they have managed and grown a little may be I have a better experience
All in all : overrated , the way the publicity was happening.... they have not reached there yet !
Gourmet style menu and prices .. But the quality is not at that level.
Food : just about ok
Ambience : needs fresh air
Service : very slow response
Price : not value for money
Turn offs : foul smell and hair in drink
