One of the best things about Delhi is the ever-evolving culinary scene. A gamut of new restaurants and cafes opens week after week, ensuring our need for innovative dishes is kept alive. With culinary enthusiasts bringing new concepts to the forefront, others aim to bring into the city that previously ceased to exist. Here are all the new restaurants in Delhi worth visiting this weekend.
Azula
A high energy bar located in New Friends Colony, Azula is a contemporary all-day dining space with a widespread Pan-Asian menu with a Latin influence. Each dish on the menu has its own unique story to tell and is packed with tons of flavour and textures from across the world. Its signature dishes such as Salmon Tataki, Crispy Silken Tofu, Goma-ae Salad, Master Sau’s Prawn Curry Dumplings, Prawn Chicken Siu Mai, and Yellow Tail Sushi. But the drool-worthy tapas are what you need to look for on the menu. Adding further to the fun are the cocktails at Azula. This new restaurant offers an eclectic menu in South East Delhi that is much-needed.
Where: 53, Community Centre, New Friends Colony
Ace Burgers
When it comes to delicious mouth-watering burgers, Ace Burgers’ in Gurugram should be your next go-to! Championing different (and authentic) flavours, you can find a plethora of flavour profiles sandwiched between two delicious burger buns. The menu at Ace Burgers is inspired by the flavour profiles from across the globe and we highly recommend trying their Signature Burgers – ‘Moroccan Burger’ with Mediterranean inspired shashlik patty, tomatoes, pickled onions and flavourful nutty house sauce, the ‘Korean Burger’ which has Bulgogi glazed patty with cheese, kimchi salad, infused with authentic Korean spiced house sauce and topped with pan fried noodles, the quintessential ‘American Burger’ in BBQ sauce, pickles and caramelized onions topped with fried egg; each burger delivers a signature flavor to the patrons.
The cherry on top is that the burgers go all-out when it comes to a generous amount of filling. We can surely say this new restaurant has #ACEd it. “Our love for burgers is unmatched, and we have had burgers from most of the joints in Delhi. What we got were big chunky burgers but what most of them lacked was a distinct flavor. We knew we wanted to enter the space with fulfilling and authentic yet uniquely flavored burgers,” said Mushahir, Co-Creator, Ace Burgers.
