BMG Unplugged has opened in Amanora Mall this month. The place has two outlets in Dehradun. The one in Pune in the Amanora Mall is the third one. BMG- Be My Guest is a nice place to spend an afternoon at and is even better in the evenings with its superb ambience and lighting.
Location
What I Had in BMG Unplugged
Cocktails
The cocktails at BMG Unplugged are presented in a really unique way. They have some interesting cocktails coming up as well.
Whiskey Old Fashion – Lavender
The classic whiskey cocktail with a hint of lavender. It was strong but at the same time subtle due to the lavender.
Berry Basil
A beer based cocktail with a bit of strawberry and basil.
Khufiya Shaana
This one has a base of spice rum and has fruits, basil, apple juice and mint. Again a strong drink.
Confused Infused
Spice Infused Bourbon Whiskey with apricots, star anaise,cinammon, cloves and honey.
Firangi Pauva
This one is a strong drink with a whiskey base, tangerine and honey.
Dragon Popcorn
Liquid nitrogen tossed munchies. The minute you pop these in your mouth, you blow out smoky air from your mouth and so the name.
Food
Re-diconstructed Tokri Chaat
This was one of my favorites here. It has a North Indian Chaat touch to it.
Sharabi Tikka
Flambéed Chicken Tikka if you like that hint of alcohol in your meat.
Mushroom Galouti
These literally just melt in your mouth. It is made from minced and ground ingredients and so it just disappears when you have it.
Mediterranean Pizza
The way the pizza is presented here is totally different and the pizza is drizzled with olive oil. Amazing taste and texture.
Jalepeno Cheese Croquettes
These tasted good but did not have that stringy mozzarella center.
Pao Bhaji Fondue
Fondue has really picked up these days. Indian versions of Fondue like Misal Fondue and Pav Bhaji Fondue are getting popular by the day. This one was tasty and the Bhaji was prepared in the North Indian style.
Chicken Tawa Taka Tak
Chicken Tawa served with Indian Bread. It is like a complete meal.
Chocolate Momos
A good chocolate filling but a little dry.
Rabdi
This Rabdi was served with Gulab Jamun. This one failed to impress me.
Ambience
The place is really big. It has an outdoor seating area as well as a huge indoor seating area. The place is done really well. The place has a musical vibe to it.
All in all, BMG Unplugged is a good place for food, unique drinks and a lot of live gigs and music.
If you love cocktails, head to Retox.
