When you say Taj and Palace all in the name - you expect something unique maybe exotic but I'm willing to settle for just let's say 'tasty' - so we decided to have the lunch buffet that had so many amazing five star reviews. My oh my! I must say I'm truly appalled at the quality and taste of the food served here.
My humble opinion - save your money - this food is neither hot nor spicy nor tasty. The pakoras were like golf balls - rock solid. The utthappam tasted like rubber with onions. The raitha was souuur - and the coconut chutney was made with stale coconut! The idlis were invisible - honestly, they never appeared in the buffet dish that was marked 'idli'. The sambhar was without any dal and looked pitiful. Why would anyone recommend this!
We decided to leave the desserts alone - didn't feel the love ;)
I'm off to some good coffee and pastry place to clean out and recuperate my sad taste buds!
