At The World Of Art In Dining...

It was an impressionable gala affair at World Art Dining, Punjabi Bagh when an invite for a Media Luncheon was extended to me last week. It was all about graceful attention to detail, along with a penchant for excellence on the platter, thanks to Chef Sanjay Chowdhury who presented to us bloggers, his choicest selections for tasting.

World Art Dining is a class apart and embodies excellence and opulence in the food world. Located prominently on the Main Club Road, Punjabi Bagh, WAD spans across four grand floors and presents three remarkable dining options – Cook House, Brew House and Celebrations Banquet, all aiming to provide an unforgettable experience to their patrons.

Upon arriving at the venue for the evening, I was greeted by the life-size banner of the newspaper snippets of all the musical evenings that have been hosted at World Art Dining, written about, in Delhi Times, the supplement of TOI, and also, a proclamation of the 'Best Dal Makhni' testified by none other than Marryam H Reshii, who has been writing about food and lifestyle for over three decades.

We were led to the top floor of the premises with a pleasant smile by an attendant and that was just the beginning of a memorable evening with great food and anecdotes from Chef Sanjay's journey in the hospitality industry. 

Greeted by Chef Sanjay himself, we were introduced to the concept and school of thought behind World Art Dining, and each of the guiding thoughts behind Cook House, Brew House, and Celebrations. 

Cook House embodies universal cuisine, and it is here that the tasting session was held. With a diverse Ala Carte or an exquisite Buffet priced at ₹999 at their disposal, patrons are in for a delightful experience. Cook House hosts three interactive kitchens, each catering to a different cuisine, and patrons can witness their food being prepared, first-hand.

Brew House is known for being the music  powerhouse and it is here that celebrity performances from the likes of Malkit Singh, Ammy Virk, Guru Randhawa, Ranjeet Bawa, Ramya Iyer, Dilbagh Singh, to name a few, each weekend bring the party alive.

The Celebrations is spread across two levels at WAD and impersonates flamboyant banqueting and events.The plush ambiance of the banquets contributes enormously to creating everlasting memories. WAD has made sure that The Celebrations becomes the perfect venue for celebrations of any and every kind. Chef Sanjay curates the menu with the guests for each occasion.

Each portion served to us across a three-course meal was in line with WAD's belief of Feed India as they pursue the minimization of wastage of food. Also, we were able to relish a vast variety of offerings from Chef's kitchen. :)

The presentation of the dishes was unparalleled, as was the quality and taste. Also, the variety of mocktails was overwhelming and their dessert platter was a slice of seventh heaven. :D
