Tucked in a lazy corner of industrial Gurgaon, lies Spoonful of Soul, a restaurant with a heart. A venture started by siblings, Anuradha Khanna and Rohit Sodhi, this place combines the aura of a deli with that of a restro bar. ‘‘Anuradha loves to cook and she always wished to run a cafe while I wanted a restaurant of my own. That is how we came up with this concept,’’ says Rohit.
The ambience is simple yet elegant with sophisticated and vibrant furniture, set against the backdrop of white-textured Mediterranean walls.
The food served is a subtle mélange of cuisines from around the world and the menu card offers a range of palatable delights. From soups and starters to entrees and dessert, your taste buds are sure to be rewarded. The Smoked Chicken Soup is a lovely broth served with crisp garlic bread while prawns wrapped in a sheet of bacon is a must-try appetiser. ‘‘These prawns are my personal favourite,’’ says Sodhi, who along with Anuradha proved to be a great host. The Chicken with Strawberry Vinaigrette Salad is a beautiful medley of pine nuts, asparagus, greens and course chicken. The show stealer is a dish called Saltimbocca, consisting of succulent chicken, rolled in bacon and spinach, drizzled with a gorgeous jus. You can wrap up your meal with a scrumptious dessert, called Warm Date Cigars served with Vanilla Ice-cream, a perfect finish to a delectable meal.
The restaurant also has a bar that offers a variety of mocktails, cocktails and shakes apart from liquor. You can enjoy classic music, hospitable service, impecable creations and a lot more—all under one roof.
Spoonful of Soul is located at 27, Nathupur Road, DLF Phase 3, Gurgaon.
