Dishy Duo

“For one,the central theme at the cafe are crepes and waffles. Apart from that,the menu over the years has been improvised to include Italian,French and signature Indian dishes,” says Nic. For those who haven’t got a clue,crepes (pronounced not as crap or crapeee but as in rep!) are a part of traditional French cuisine. They are very thin pancakes made of wheat flour which can be both sweet and savory. A look at the menu and you notice it’s far from snooty. “It’s a cafe where we want to promote healthy food,joi de vivre,social interaction and bonding,” Nic winks back with the answer. And there’s plenty to tuck in while you do that – soups,crepes,salads,appetizers,burgers,sandwiches,thin crust pizzas,why,there’s even a Dino’s Delight! “As much as I wish it was a dessert,my brother’s offering a tuna sandwich under that!” laughs Dino who has just wrapped up shooting for director Sanjay Gupta’s ‘Acid Factory’. And for a change he’s playing mean,really wicked he admits. “It’s not the first time that I am playing the bad guy,” says Dino who is now “consciously” looking at content-driven cinema. “Not that I regret what I have done in the past but I do want to do the kind of films I would like to watch,” he says. And when he found that lacking,Dino’s gone ahead and set up his own production house. “It’s called Clockwork Films and we are looking at scripts at the moment,” says Morea who is also working on two other films for the year. And has Nic ever tried his hand at acting? “See,I knew you would ask that!” he laughs before adding on a serious note,“I am looking at a food and lifestyle show rolled into one which I will host. It will offer a peep into the kitchens and homes of the who’s who,” Nic offers a sampler. So let’s raise a toast to that!
