Ordered breakfast from here this morning. We ordered 4 plates of club kachori. The kachoris tasted quite good and there was ample subzi to go with it. Wished they also served some meetha chutney to mellow down the spiciness of the subzi.
The restaurant was closed for online orders so we dropped in to pick up breakfast.. club kachori sabzi and piping hot jalebis.. it took over half an hour for them to prep the order but knowing the awesome breakfast to be gorged upon it seemed worth the wait.. but was it a disappointment or what!!! The sabzi seemed like water was added to it since they had run out of gravy and and the jalebis were soggy as if they were made before and just reheated and parcelled.. to make it worse the jalebi has no kesar and pista that’s signature Gokul jalebis.. what a disappointment and what a let down.. a wasted effort of going to pick up the food!!!Why could they just refuse to take the order when there wasn’t enough sabzi or they had run out of batter to make fresh jalebis.. is it worth loosing out on loyal customers just to push out left over food?
PRICEY AF.I went in thinking it to be like Haldiram’s and Bhikharam’s but the pricing of each item was just scary.Every namkeen I laid my eyes on had a price tag not justified for the size.I ordered chanachur.It was 320 a kg.Similar Chanachur in Prabuji costed me Rs 200(after a 30rs discount). Commanding a 90rs premium for the same quality is outrageous. It might easily be the costliest chanachur in town.I also took mini kachori. Rs 100 for 14 pieces.As I was paying I happened to look at the misthis.It was 40-50 a piece. Earlier I thought 30 per mishti was heights.I am not coming back without robbing a bank first.Value for Money-1/5.Quality-5/5.
Ordered mini Raj kachori.The size of the kachori came as a shock as it was no bigger than a puchka.For 60 bucks they are charging 1 puchka !!!
It was my bad luck to have chosen this outlet when they were busy packing food for order supply. There was hardly any place to sit, and hardly any person to help me. Ultimately one old staff came and helped me or else I was preparing to leave.I chose dhokla, chhola frankie and Rabri.Dhokla came with two types of chutneys and tasted fabulous. The Frankie was also quite tasty. The rabri was fantastic. Unimaginably delicious.Price was OK.I loved the staff who attended to me others kept themselves busy.Price reasonable.Do not in your wildest dreams think of parking.The place is neat and clean.
Yesterday, we being from Mumbai, were craving to eat some stuff that will taste like the same. So we decided to go to Gokul for some quick snacks. Trust me it was perfect choice to eat. We had pav bhaji, club kachori and sabji and some samosas and all of them were simply tasty. Don’t mind visiting the same place again and again to enjoy some more delicious and varieties of cuisine.
Oct 2018 – Reviews 1, Oct 2018 – Review 2Oct 2018 – Review 2 -10 Item Pure Veg Food Carnival For Durga Puja 2018 @ Gokul Shree Sweets & Snacks, AJC Bose Road, Kolkata ☺Duration: 13 – 21 Oct 2018Timing: Lunch – MidnightBengali or non Bengali, 4-5 days of merry making during Durga Puja has now become a cultural norm with all Kolkata based households, which involves eating out everyday, or at least a couple of times during the festive period.While almost all small and big diners serve a range of Puja specific non veg items or thalis, very few diners serve Puja specific veg items or thalis. Even so, this norm is almost non-existant amongst pure veg diners. Thus a lot of vegetarians, specially the elder people don’t get to enjoy specialized meals during the Pujas.Thankfully, this trend is on a change since last few years. So, this year Gokul Shree, the age old and popular sweets and snacks shop cum restaurant has come out with a well curated all veg and kind of all inclusive a 10 item Durga Puja special menu that comprises of – soup, starters, full meal combos and dessert.A couple of days back they sent me a sumptuous food hamper along with a set of sturdy clay utensils for tasting and review.The hamper comprised of the following items — Sangar Ka Kabab With Kachar Ka Chatni (Rs. 250/-): It comprised of 4 pieces of Sangar Ka Kababs which kind of looked two shades darker than the usual Hara Bhara Kababs (also present in the menu), a bowl of Kachar Ka Chutney and some salad juliennes made of primarily cabbage and some carrot.These Kebabs were kind of new to me and thus seemed interesting. They were infused with a melange of spices like the usual Sangar Ki Sabji. The presence of salt was slightly high.The Chutney had the look of the usual Garlic Chutney and it expectantly tasted little sour. This Chutney is not readily available in the city and I was happy to get my hands on some. It tasted good and also paired well with the Dal-Bati combo (mentioned below).- Roasted Bati With Panchmela Dal And Choorma (Rs. 300/-): 2 pieces of laddoo shaped Batis and 2 pieces of tikiya shaped Batis came packed with a big bowl of mixed Pulses and half a big bowl of Choorma.The round Batis were stuffed with a spicy besan mixture and the flattened Batis were sans any stuffing i.e. plain Batis.Normally, the Bati stuffing comprises of a sattu mixture, so this besan aka gram flour stuffing was new to me, but the taste was familiar, as similar stuffing is used in Besan Ka Parathas in our and many other households.The Batis were well roasted and crumbly in texture. The Dal had the the right proportion of assorted pulses. The Choorma was flavorsome, had some chopped nuts and thankfully it was not too sweet.The entire combo could easily suffice two people and it tasted excellent.- Handi Biryani (Rs. 200/-): A big clay handi came sealed with flour dough around it’s lid. It was infused with fried onions, carrots, beans and some canned cherries.The quantity present was good enough for 2-3 people. It tasted nice.- Paneer Chap With Lachcha Paratha (Rs. 300/-): It comprised of a medium sized bowl of big paneer chunks in a non-spicy white gravy and 2 soft and flaky Lachcha Parathas.The gravy had an extra presence of sabut kali mirch aka peppercorns, which caused a slight disturbance while eating. On the whole, the dish tasted good.- Malabar Paratha With Chettinad Paneer (Rs. 300/-): It comprised of 2 Malabar Parathas carefully cut into a total of 4 halves and a big bowl of Chettinad Paneer.Chettinad Paneer is a spicy and flavourful South-Indian dish. Made with a unique spice blend this curry is very different in taste from other paneer curries that we typically make in the North. It comprised of small paneer cubes submerged in a spicy and thick curry. The curry tasted good.The Parathas were well cooked in enough oil, slightly thick and flaky. They tasted so good that they seemed good enough to be consumed on their own i.e. without any accompanying curry!- Dal Makhani and Mixed Vegetables: Big bowls of these additional Dal and Sabji were sent as extras from the other combos. Both the items tasted nice.If you are fussy about dining in only pure veg diners and if you hold a perpetual grudge for not getting enough unusual choices during the Pujas, then Gokul Shree is the place for you to be.Even if you are a non fussy vegetarian or a non vegetarian, feel free to try out their well prepared dishes.Happy Durga Puja 2018 to ALL ☺Note: The food was plated and served at home.#vfr277Oct 2018 – Review 1 -My Winning Hamper @ Gokul Shree Sweets & Snacks, Kolkata ☺From almost two decades, our household has been buying it’s yearly quota of – sweets, imported fruits and dry fruits and now even candied fruits, from one or the other outlets of Gokul, for both consumption and gifting.No wonder I was quite jubiliant and ecstatic upon receiving Gokul Shree’s (AJC Bose Road) call, informing me to be the winner of their online held Ganesh Chaturthi Contest.As per our mutual scheduling, yesterday I visited their aforesaid outlet and received some wonderful goodies amidst extremely warm welcome and hospitality.My winning hamper comprised of -a. A beautiful wooden gift box with intricately craved lid. It comprised of the following mithais – Chandrakala, Moti Paak, Anjir Barfi and Kaju Barfi.Chandrakala was stuffed with sweetened pistachio mixture and not khoya. I always find this combination better.Sugar free Anjir Barfi was highly welcomed and enjoyed by the diabetic members of the family.Moti Paaks were super soft and Kaju Barfis were beautifully sliced in relatively thin pieces.All the sweets were expectantly fresh and tasty.b. An adorned and traditional red cloth pouch or thaili comprising of Badam Kulfi aka kesar-pista flavored white chocolate coated salted almonds and Kiwi Toffee aka kiwi puree infused aam papad.Both the luxurious edibles tasted good and interesting. Personally, I like them best as Mukhwas post dinner.Thanks You Gokul Shree for such a generous and sweet gesture.#vfr275
