POLKA DOTS - A CUTE LITTLE EATING PLACE IN AUNDH, PUNE.
It’s almost dark; Overcast Sky; Thunder, Winds and Rain; lights go off (so typical of Pune – a bit of wind, a hint of rain and the electricity fails); a depressing evening. My daughter says : “Let’s go to Polka Dots. It’s nearby and my friends tell me it’s good!”
So we land up at ‘Polka Dots’ – a cute little eating place on DP Road near Parihar Chowk in Aundh, Pune.
The café (I wouldn’t call it a restaurant) is on the side of a house, the seating well covered, the cooking area open and airy.
The menu is confusing – it features vignettes of all types of cuisine so one can’t really classify the genre of this eating place – so we order a Roast Chicken Lyonnaise for my daughter, a Chicken Corden-Bleu (I suspect the spellings may be wrong but that’s how they spell it!) for me and a Mexican Corn & Jalapeno for my vegetarian wife.
The chicken is excellent – the roast is very yummy and the soft and succulent breast of chicken in its delicious sauce is exquisite. My wife tells me that the vegetarian corn and jalapeno was excellent too.
Try the place; you may find it a bit expensive, but it’s okay once in a while. The crowd is young and the ambience is lively. And do let me know if you liked the place.
