Prankster - Sector 29 Gurgaon Restaurant Review


Prankster has been dominating the food scene at the Sector 29 Gurgaon for some time now. I know for a fact that many people from outside Gurgaon come down specially to try the food here. It has a wide range of Indian food served with a twist. With all the modern tapering and innovation, the place has retained the Indian touch which is liked by so many of us.


Lotus Fritters

There were a number of dishes which I discovered first here. One of them being Lotus Fritters. Lotus stems were deep fried and coated with spices and made for a great dish.


Dahi Bhalle 

Is an all time favorite dish. I just wish they had added little more tamarind chutney in it.


Prankster cooks some of the best mutton dishes in town


Lunch Scenes



Paneer


Chole kulche doughnut with gajar achar mousse


Chicken tikka fattir 

Fattir is an interesting concept at Prankster. It is like an open Parantha but the base reminds you of Patties served in old school bakeries.


Litchi Tandoori

The best way to eat Litchi I believe


Pav bhaji zinker



Kick ass honey chilli potatoes


TT lamb chops


Imli glazed Kung pao


Desserts

I tried their rose kheer, which is heavy on rice and milk and tastes great. The rose petals instead of any essence or flavor add to the better taste of the dish.


The Jalebi Platter is a must try. It's prepared crisp and topped with a little rabri. 


Micro Brewery

The place has its own micro brewery and serves great fresh Beer. I tasted the Premium one, which from the testers put in front of me, tasted the best. 

Pineapple Therapy

Pineapple therapy is one good cocktail with both kinds of rums and  pineapple making for a sweet bitter drink


The one thing I didn't like about the place was their parking policy. It is located bang in the center of a bustling market and has a lot of parking space in front of the building. However, parking of even two wheelers is not allowed which I think is a little sad, as you should allow the same for your patrons.

Learning from Gardening

While composing status messages, just for fun, I simply jot down anything random that comes to my mind at the moment. Here is the latest FB message i posted few seconds ago. Tushar Mangl learns a lot from his gardening routine. Even when his plants die, he simply feels bad and then goes about to plan for new plants. Mostly because an empty space does not look that good. That is life for you. People will always go away from your life, at one point or another. But you cannot always leave the places vacan t. New plants have to be placed. Optimism has to exist for new flowers to bloom, new leaves to grow. Now, FB only gives me 422 characters to say my point. But my dear blogger, a companion of several years gives me much better platform to elaborate my thoughts. You see, in a flower bed I maintain near stairs of my house I had planted bougainvillea plants on either sides of the bed. As fate would have it, and given my nature of getting too attached to livi...

A suggestion to break the loop of guilt, isolation, and emotional burnout?

Caught in a guilt spiral, isolating quietly, and wondering why rest doesn’t heal you? You’re not lazy—you’re carrying layers of unprocessed emotion and spiritual exhaustion. This is your invitation to pause, reflect, and reset. Let’s explore why you still feel stuck despite good intentions, and discover rituals, reflections, and real reconnection to help you come home to yourself. First Published on 20/06/2008 14:30 Second edition Published on 04/07/2025 12:51 Why do you keep spiraling despite good intentions? Let me ask you this. Have you ever written out a self-care plan so perfectly, maybe in a brand-new notebook—drink more water, meditate, go to therapy—and yet by day three you’re numbly binge-scrolling, wondering what’s broken now ? Yeah. Same. We don’t spiral because we’re undisciplined or lazy. We spiral because the emotional weight we’re carrying goes deeper than we admit. It's not about a missed workout or failing to reply to that one text. It's the inner tug-of...

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...
