Olly - Olive's All Day Cafe


Olive Bistro has had a great presence in DLF Cyber Hub and also for a long time. The place has reinvented itself as Olly and I am glad that they have retained their original charm and great service intact. The interiors have gone for a huge makeover with more sunshine and white ceilings. (The hand pump is gone). The menu has only gotten better and my favorite Jar of Tiramisu is still here.

                                           




Prawns Pil Pil is one of the best dishes on the menu. The food bowl is healthy, filling and a great meal for any time of the day. I also had bite of the Huevos Rancheros, a better way to enjoy fried eggs. I would suggest if you are trying out this place for the first time go for their Italian options. The pizza is hand rolled and made right in front of you. Similarly the Sole fish is just great.


The Banoffee Pie is the best way to end the meal even though the Tiramisu is one the best dessert options on the menu.


For drinks the old bar is still here. Breakfast Martini with Gin and Marmalade makes for a fruity drink. They also have a great cocktail list as well as an extensive tea and coffee menu. This might sound little confusing but in fact they have a beverage for every mood. 

                                    

The place seems to be driven to provide good experience to its guests mostly by the staff. From the manager of the place to the head chef and everyone serving you, cooking for you, seem to be working in tandem to make sure of a positive impression.



I also liked the fact that they have all these small little plants all around the place. They even sell the small, table top variety to patrons who wish for a keepsake.

Does India Need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed
