More Than Paranthas: Less Than a Review

I was going to write a review on More Than Paranthas, but since I find many other reviews (and a number of them with views similar to mine), I am going to stick to a bullet point overview of my experience -

• They give you two menus - One exclusively for Starters - Kebabs and Chaat. The other for Main Course.
• The Mirchi Paneer Kebab is delicious. I hear they get the Paneer couriered in from Delhi everyday. But thinking about it, I've had better - At Samarkhand, Infantry Road. But this was circa 2004. Even those guys don't make it all that good these days.
• One out of the four chaat starters was unavailable. So I had to choose between Papdi Chaat, Dahi Bhalla and Pakodas. The Papdi Chaat to my disappointment came topped with loads of curd. The South Indian in me has a mental block - To me, having curd or any item containing curd marks the end of a meal. The only thing I like eating after curds is dessert. But then the Papdi Chaat was SO amazingly good that for once, I did not mind eating curd at the beginning of the meal.
• The price of items are not given in numbers, but are spelled out in words - like Rupees four hundred and eighty two. So if you're one of those types who scan the right side of the menu carefully before ordering, watch out !
• I order the "MTP speciality" -Jodhpuri crispy fried paratha. One Garlic , One Lal Mirch. I expect to see a nice round slab of paratha topped with a dollop of butter. I dream of tearing out a piece with my fingers, brush it on some pickles, dip it into a bowl of thick curd and eat it. But Surprise! The Jodhpuri parathas are actually are cut into pieces before being served. Somewhat resembled a Kothu Paratha .The presentation is disappointing( and far from "crispy fried"..GRRR!), but I forgive them- because it tasted rather different and interesting.
• Another Surprise - They don't serve curds with the Parathas. Can you believe it?!
• The Jodhpuri Lal Mirch Paratha is extremely spicy.. I mean the teary-eyes-runny-nose-burning-throat-hoo-hoo-haa-haa kinds. Steer clear of this unless you have intestines of steel.
• The Namkeen Chaach was well made. This a must if you are ordering the above mentioned Killer Lal Mirch.
• Save space for dessert. There are two dessert parathas on the menu which I could not try because the tummy was house full. Ordered the Kulfi which tasted stale.
• Meal for two with non-alcoholic beverages would cost around 1200/- I mean - Rupees One Thousand Two Hundred ;-)
• Will I go there again? Umm..I'm undecided.
