The Blue Door Cafe

Khan market has become one of my favorite places to have good French and Italian food, and it never disappoints me.
Recently I went to a new place in Khan Market the Blue Door Cafe. It is located on 66, middle lane Khan Market New Delhi, and can easily be reached by both car and metro with the nearest station (Khan Market) just 0.3 kms away.

Food


The food is very good. We ordered for a plate of fish fingers and calamari (squid) fritters. Both of the dishes were amazing. The high point was the calamari and the well made tartar sauce which accompanied the fish fingers. The fish was fresh, soft and tender and the squid was deliciously crunchy.
This was the first time I had tasted squid and I thoroughly loved it.

For the main course we ordered for a plate of grilled fish with lemon capers, chicken escallops valdostana and a plate of pollo Alla Milanese. The main course contrary to the appetizers had ups and downs.

The ups included the perfect chicken escallops valdostana and pollo Alla Milanese. The chicken pieces were juicy and tender and lovely to eat.
However the fish could have been better. The fillets were too thinly sliced and that is why it was a bit chewy and dry.
And then for dessert we ordered for Belgian waffles with whipped cream. This beautifully executed dish ensured that our meal ended on a high note.

The waffles were warm, crunchy and delicious topped with the whipped it was like paradise.

 

 

So for food I would give it 

 

 

 


Ambience


Ambience for some could be a bit of a let down. A blue door awaits the customers at the entrance and the decor has lot of green it. Walls have beautiful oil paintings, and as a art enthusiast myself I can assure you that it provides the necessary cool on such hot days.
One of the major highs is that the restaurant also features a beautiful art gallery which houses oil and acrylic paintings for sale.
So one can enjoy great food while admiring these works of art

Service


The service is good; the manager frequently visited the table to ensure that everything was fine. The food is served quickly, waiters ensure a hospitable and amicable environment that makes you relish every last bit of your dish

Overall

I would rate it
 

 





My advice go and try it out, it won’t disappoint you. It will cost you Rs. 1100 for 2 but it lives up to its cost.

Bon appetit
