Sharabi Prawns and spicy Seekhs at their reddest, crispiest best wait to be devoured pirate style at a new Rajouri garden bistro Pick trick: The buffet here is a hit
A garma garam grill, bustling buffet and cool graffiti make for a good package, considering it all comes under half a grand. Add to it great company and beautiful weather, and you're quite there. The busy lanes of Rajouri Garden have just given birth to a 'pirated' place, one where bindaas barbeque meets bright lights and sights. We fixed a date with Pirates of Grill, and had a great time making merry.

Food
The buffet format serves as a blessing in disguise, since it allows you to indulge in a variety of North Indian favs like chicken tikkas, mutton seekh and spicy potato-paneer preparations without big bills. "Though we specialise in North Indian, we do have a few continental and Oriental dishes, too. When we started the restaurant, we decided to offer grills from different cuisines, but later, we realised that people here want to stick to the spicy, desi versions. So, we made the necessary alterations. There's no use serving what no one wants," says owner Inderjit Singh Banga.u00a0

Ambience
Divided into two floors, this 180-cover restaurant, with table grills, live skewers and buffet doesn't impress you instantly. But, the lively du00e9cor, graffiti on the walls and model wood-ships placed on each table grow on to you. Interestingly, this bright eatery is a pleasant change from your typical dark-dim watering holes, even if the loud music keeps your mouth shut.
