Yesterday, I was itching to have Indian food hence
decided to order Rara Chicken (INR 320) from Big Belly Canteen (BBC). I'd heard very good
reviews about it. I have to agree with each and every positive review ever
written about BBC's Rara Chicken.
The gravy was delish, and the chicken was
juicy and tender. The Butter Garlic Naan (INR 35) that I'd ordered, as accompaniment,
was also very nicely done.
A couple of months back Jitin bhai had called to say
he was opening a new delivery kitchen at Viman Nagar; Big Belly Canteen (BBC).
He mentioned he wanted to send over a few dishes for me to try as he wanted
feedback for the same. I tried the food and gave him honest verbal feedback, as
requested.
As I'm penning about last night's dinner, I've decided
to pen about the dinner Jitin bhai sent me a couple of months back. So, read
on...
At the time he'd sent me Khandeshi Chicken which was spicy as it had
special ground Khandeshi masala added. The light bitter aftertaste of
Javantri (Mace) came through delicately and beautifully.
He also sent Veg
Butter Chicken, Dal Gheewala, Jeera Rice and Lachcha Paratha.
While I loved the robustly spicy Khandeshi Chicken,
the Veg Butter Chicken did nothing for me with regard to the overly sweet
gravy. The Soya Chaamp in the gravy were nice but the sweet gravy was a letdown.
Having said that let me add with honesty, mum cannot handle spicy food hence
this was the dish of the day for her. (Such a perfect example of 'taste is
subjective').
The Dal Gheewala was fabulous, and they weren't at all stingy
with the ghee. It was yum! The Jeera Rice was also superb!
Next, I need to try their Chindian food. I'm told they
do a mean Chilli Chicken. 😉
Please note: Big Belly Canteen is not a restaurant;
it’s a ‘Delivery Kitchen’ based at Ramwadi, Viman Nagar. They are (soon)
opening a second branch at Baner.
To order, you may call them on +91 8669994001 or you
may order via Zomato, Swiggy or Dial-A-Meal.
