Lunch at Café Terra

Breaking our day-long work-related discussions on a new project, my friend Shridevi and I decided to lunch at Café Terra, which is next door to NaVaRaSa, Shri’s entrepreneurial venture and an art and culture hub.
We started off with a lemon and coriander soup which is probably one of the tastiest soups I have savored in a long time. Lemony, peppery and clear except for the tiny chunks of paneer and finely chopped coriander dotting the soup bowl, it was extremely energizing, almost ambrosial. I’m a fan now, and would love to go back for this one.
Lunch was a mushroom and cheese sandwich made of brown bread. The bread was grilled and nicely buttered and the mushroom and cheese filling quite generous, only the portion a little small. I think I devoured it in no time! :-P
Shri ordered Hakka noodles which were nice, but in terms of taste the sandwich was way better. We rounded the meal with cold coffee as against the dessert, and I must say it was a wise choice. The tall glass with chilled coffee was creamy, just sweet and delicious.
Tucked away on one of the floors of a nondescript building, this little joint has quite a few fans I figure. I’m going back to try the Belgian breakfast (Shri recommends it) and I love the fact that you can order this any time of the day.
So Belgian Breakfast for lunch, it shall be!
