Combining the ambience of a luxury hotel with a rich buffet menu,Biso – Mediterranean Bistro,the 24-hour coffee shop of newly inaugurated Citrus Hotel is already a strong player in the market. Adding onto the list of hot-spots for the foodies,the restaurant offers a rich mixed buffet at what can be called a less than reasonable price,given the brand name.

Aditya Kumar,food and beverages manager,Citrus,says,”We have just begun and there is much in store. However,we want to highlight the buffet as that comes for a reasonable price of Rs 299 plus taxes and includes both Indian and mediterranean menu. With 15 salads,12 desserts and 20 main course menu food items,the buffet cannot be but more than your money’s worth.”

While the café plans to introduce almost all the popular mediterranean dishes to their guests,they,however,have also taken care of Indian platter and it shows on the menu that boasts of Indian food as their specialty.

Be it exotics like Fish In Oyster Sauce (Rs 360) or a common ones like Chicken in Schezwan Chilli Sauce (Rs 190),starters are the real turn-ons at the restaurant that give a preview of a rich menu. While seafood lovers can always start with Achari prawns (Rs 450) before going on to the main course,vegetarians can opt for Tandoori sabz (Rs 175) with brocolli,baby corn and other vegetables marinated in choicest spices and barbequed. For those who feel playing safe with Indian cuisine is the best thing to do,they may shed the inhibition and go for some Italian Penne Arrabitta (Rs 210),which was more for Indian palette. However,you always have hits like Palak Paneer (Rs 225) and Daal Lassoni (Rs 195) for vegetarians and Chicken Lababdar (Rs 310) from Indian cuisine menu to fall back on.

Rahul Kulkarni,chief chef,says,”Be it Indian or mediterranean,we don’t change the authenticity of the food. Therefore,in our buffet,we have both mediterranean and Indian food items so that one can choose from a range of food. In a buffet,one may also try small quantity of any dish without paying for the full plate for that particular dish.”
