Tea Villa, Thane
The service here is actually slightly
better than my experience at their outlets though. I have always found
their service in need of improvement as they seem a little absent and
you have to grab their attention. Also, a little forgetful. Though I
would say there is an improvement, but it's still not at par. This time
the reason was we had asked for whipped cream with their waffles (To be
honest, we hadn't even been asked. It was along the lines of would you
want whipped cream or ice cream with your waffle, like a choice is being
provided to you and when you say whipped cream. They tell you there is
an extra charge. It's a sales tactic and hence, I still didn't mind it
much). However, they had forgotten to serve it. We pointed it out half
way through completing our waffles, "hadn't we ordered whipped cream on
the side?". When asked the attendant about it, and since we were half
way through we wanted to cancel it. However, the attendant requested us
not to as apparently, it would be deducted from his pay. So we didn't.
However, it troubled me. Not because I had to pay that extra amount. But
if the management is making use of this approach to curb errors, then
it's not exactly correct and something to be looked into (And I hope if
you are reading this, you do!). This is the part where I found it to be a
little questionable. Otherwise, all seemed in place.
For
what we had. We first called for two mock tails - Passion Fruit Mojito
and Peach Iced Tea. For a change, it was not me who had ordered the Iced
tea but my friend. I went for the mojito. Some times change is good.
Turned out, change is actually good because I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Along with the drinks, we called in for the Villa Special Hummus Platter
which comes with three kinds of hummus and assorted goodies like
lavash, pita bread, cucumbers and a salad. I still can't differentiate
between all the different kind of hummus out there, as in what
ingredients go into except the basic ones, but I do know one thing, I
LOVE HUMMUS! The one thing I would have preferred it is being served
more accompaniments with this, also pickled veggies. We then called in
for the goodness called the Shroom Burger. A patty made of nothing but
mushroom, cheddar cheese infused and soft cheese. As soon as you take a
bite, cheese comes oozing out and there is nothing better than that. I
at very rare occasions choose to have a Veg Burger, and this was one of
those rare times, when my decision to do so did not fail me. The bun
could be improved upon though, didn;t have that traditional burger bun
feel to it and seemed a bit oiled. The same I would say for the onion
rings served on the side. I am generally not so fond of onion rings and
would always prefer fries, and even though I actually took a liking to
the onion rings here, it was only after using tissue to soak some of the
oil. This was something that should have been taken care of in the
kitchen. Finally, we ordered for the Oreo Waffle as dessert for
ourselves. I chose Oreo as too much of chocolate is off-putting to me
and I get tired after a few bites. Oreos, though are my favorite and I
am always eager to have them - shakes, cheesecakes, cakes, deep fried
(Yeah, deep fried! This one I can actually share the recipe of). So Oreo
waffles seemed ideal to me and that's what we had. Happily so. The
waffles were fresh, I loved the mix of white chocolate and milk
chocolate drizzled on top and also served on the side (You really don't
need to even order the whipped cream on the side, if you have this).
I was elated after this meal. You would be too, if you dropped in here. There are so many outlets across of this place around the city now, so you can choose your pick.
