One doesn’t need to be in Europe to get the feel of it.
To be honest, I was bored to death! I have gone to many European restaurants in my relative youth but honest to god, they weren't truly European. You see, as India is an amalgam of flavors so is the continent of Europe where you find the simplicity of fish and chips to the complexity of paella.
Located at the DLF Promenade, Le Cantine is a place that aims to provide the feel of traditional flavours with the amalgamation of European and indigenous ingredients. In order to review and give a final verdict on the restaurant, it is important to explore the aspects of ambience, food and staff nature.
Executive Chef Deepak Upadhyay expresses that it was difficult to don the selectors hat when it came to selecting what dishes would go on the menu. The food (in Europe) differs in kilometers
The ambience of the restaurant is very easy on the eye with beige coloured walls complimented by the light white curtains. The place is well lit irrespective with the use of ceiling lights and space for natural light to pass through.
Coming to the tables, they are organized the way a restaurant is supposed to be in. the use of green napkins to act as an envelope for the cutlery was interesting idea but the only crticism would be that the cutlery was not arranged in the order of eating meaning knives on the right and folks on the left.
The staff seemed to be very amiable and friendly. They were well dressed and seemed to treat their jobs with respect.
The most crucial part of any restaurant is the food. The food offered is a take on European cuisine. The place aims to provide traditional European food and correct the notion that European food only means pasta and pizza.
It has a plethora of options but not all the items would suit everyone's palate. The food was tasty and most importantly light on the stomach.
