No better day to write a review on world no- diet day.:d, ths baisakhi we all went to celebrate a b’day, nahh, it was not mine, my hubby’s or even my bacchas b’day it was car"s b’day. So we went to more than paranthas, it’s restaurant on the 2nd floor of crown plaza mall faridabad. Now as the name suggests it’s parantha junction & as i am a punjabi & a delhiite, i just love paranthas, , :), after are we punjus are brought up on these ya, , lol.let me explain my experience in mtp (tht’s wht it is known here as)
Ambience - decor of the place is mediocre, the entrance is always filled with almost claustrophobic smell of lemon grass scented candles!!, , if u have a likng for lemon grass thn it’s fine ;).the furniture is not worth mentioning the only saving grace is the mirror on the extreme last wall.rest definitely needs improvement.
Food - paranthas & loads of em:) can’t go and hog dhaaba food on my gaddi’s b"day. :( but to a certain extend ths pacified the cravings :d
The list goes
regular vegen – aloo, methi, gobhi, pyaz, etc.(rs.46/-each)premium vegen-sweet corn mushroom, onion cheese, etc.(rs.55/-)regular non-vegen – egg, fish, shredded chicken!!, etc.(rs.85pocket paranthas(both veg and n.veg.)- paneer tikka pocket, fish tikka pocket, seekh kebab pocket, etc.jodhpuri paranthas – garlic, ginger, ajwain, onion, etc.(rs.55/-)chur- chur paranthas – ths i’ll not recommend as ths was floatn in ghee!!:d
there is also a variety of other famous north indian dishes like,
* appetizers- different chaats, tikkas, and kebabs.(rs. 49/- to 160/-)
main course - kabuli channa, kadai murg, rara ghost, etc.(rs115/- to 185/-)
Biryanis – were not outstanding but, okay types , maybe they have added tht for the heck of it ;) (rs135/- and 175/-, , for veg and non veg.)
(all in all, one can get every thing from ghar ki dal to rajasthani laal maas.)
Chinese**- very recently they have started chinese also, so if you have someone with you, who’s not so fond of paranthas or indian stuff, or your kids as usual get stuck on eating noodles only, u have chinese instead of going for ordering individual dishes i would recommend ordering combos, i’ll give details of a veg combo- sweet corn/hot n sour manchow + chilly paneer/ chilly potato + veg manchurian /chilly paneer in two types of sauces(schezwan & hot n sour) (rs. 179/-)
Value for money - i find mtp’s rate and portioning wise better than it’s counterparts like moti mahal destination point faridabad, (as they say prices may vary, , in my case from my last visit, , lol
Paneer tikka masala 145/- (mtp) & 180/-(moti mahal)rarra mutton 185/-(mtp/-) & 209/-(moti mahal)butter nan 22/-(mtp) 39/-(moti mahal)
Taste wise also i’ll give it rating of 4/5.
more combos- dal+paneer+6pcs laccha parantha/roti(rs.215/-)
Add kadhai chicken/butter chicken to the above combo and pay (259/-) a meal for 3 !!!.i’m impressed.
Desserts-here also they have parantha, rabri parantha(75/-) which is nothing but a derivative of shahi toast, i go for gulaab jaamun, it’s a safe bet. There’s a limited variety of desserts there.
Service: As i’m an idustrywallah, I have a soft corner for the kitchen and service staff but honestly the staff here is very polite, eager to serve and ready to take any feed back to improvise. So far my experience with mtp is very very nice, touch-wood!!, :d if i’m in Delhi then i don’t fret, , but in faridabad we have very few good eating joints, mera last ccd visit yaad hai na?
My only regret is they have discontinued beer & breezer or any other alcoholic drink for tht matter, but they still have regular stuff soft drinks & fresh lime sodas.
