Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas at Plan B
Monday, December 14, 2015Me! In wordsWe were invited to a preview of the Christmas Turkey meal at Plan B, Richmond Town. Sure, almost every restaurant is going to have something interesting up for Christmas, but what piqued my interest in this one was the fact that a pub was offering a full loaded Turkey meal. Something worth checking out.
And so we found a seat close to the large glass wall (the blogger in me calling out for better lighting for photos) and waited to be wowed. The menu is a set one and really enormous, so wearing your Jughead/Joey Tribbiani pants would be a good idea.
This menu will be available starting December 24th evening for dinner and from December 25th to December 27th for lunch and dinner. Each meal is capped at a maximum of 20 people, with the minimum for reservations being 9. Of course, pre-plated dinners will also be available for smaller groups on prior reservation. The meal will cost you Rs 1950 all inclusive and will offer 1 glass of sangria, domestic wine or beer per person.
We started off with Sangria - I opted for red over white while Sudhakar opted for beer. We tried Bira, which was really nice - both the wheat and the blonde.
We were started off with a Pork Pie -
A neat little package, finished off with some micro-greens and with an
nice, crunchy fresh salad with a light vinaigrette dressing on the side. The pastry slices through easily
and is stuffed to its last buttery edge with minced pork. The filling
was a tad bit dry, but paired well with the salad. A word with the big
guns at Plan B about this and rest assured, a smart moistness factor is
going to be part of the pork filling.We made good of the pie with me eating up all of the pork filling with the salad and Lil' Miss the pastry shell. Yes, we can be weird that way.
The accompaniments are plenty - the sausage and bacon stuffing has a nice creamy consistency to it and am guessing a bit of the pan juices of the Turkey as well. Hidden under the Turkey is the Garlicky Green Pea Potato Mash - smooth, creamy mashed potato, with flecks of green from the peas and bits of roasted garlic. Also on the plate were Roasted Baby Potatoes, Orange glazed carrots, and blanched veggies. Though garlic bread is served on the side, it was pretty much ignored till we took some to mop up the little remnants on the plate.
The meal ends with a Christmas pudding, which we did not get to sample since all the ingredients are still currently working their magic and will be ready only in time for this promotion. Going by the rest of the meal, I am sure this one will be as indulgent.
