The buzz of the town; heard a pure vegetarian restaurant has newly opened so I decided to try out.
 
Located in the busy street of Meena bazaar! 

Parking is a hassle to find although soon there would be a parking solution. Stay tuned...😆



As you can expect it's a pure veg restaurant.

Mr Bharat owner/chef of the restaurant was aiming to incorporate vegetarianism & also give an ode to Lord Ganesha & hence the name was born.

One thing that is commendable is the incorporation of a vegan menu into a vegetarian cuisine restaurant. Making Indian food accessible to even vegan dietary followers; making sure no foodies get left out.

Talking about interior & decor, it was pretty well themed to fit the vegetarian & Indian restaurant narrative with the subtle focus lights to set the mood. 

Covid-19 protocols were also followed by the restaurant, talking to Mrs Rama, owner of the restaurant, she explained how excellent attention to overall sanitization of the restaurant. From using high-quality dishwashing liquid & disinfectants taking all the measures to ensure that customers eat stress-free. 

 A very well sanitized, clean & hygienic restaurant.

Dabeli Pav #MustTry

I first ordered Dabeli pav & truly it was an instagrammable worthy dish. And it was delicious as well. I couldn't stop eating it. Everything was just on point from the taste to the presentation to the variety of colours incorporated to make the dish look good on-camera & off-camera.

Quick fact: it's a Gujarati dish & mostly preferred as a quick snack. 

And for starters, I was served Thread paneer followed by Toofani Bhaji Idli. 

Thread Paneer & Mali Afghani Soya Chaap #HighlyRecommend

Thread paneer's freshness was literally oozing with every bite and the fried noodles just added the perfect crunch to it. 

Speaking to the chef on this dish, they make their own paneer. For the price you pay, you are guaranteed freshness, healthy & delicious delicacy. In my opinion, this makes your dining experience a lot more memorable.

Toofani Bhaji Idli

Toofani bhaji idli is normal idli but with an interesting touch. Yummy at every bite. Who knew a traditional fermented dish could be eaten in a non-traditional way with so much spice & burst of flavours.

Malai Afghani Soya Chaap #MustTry

Malai Afghani Soya chaap was next in line & by the looks of it you could easily get confused with the non-veg tandoori kebab but the taste was even better than the non-veg. Yes! that's coming from a die-hard non-vegetarian.

Extremely rich in taste, juicy, moist & oozing creaminess at every bite. Just Yumm. #musttry

Chilli Basil Soya Chaap    #HighlyRecommend 100Times

Next, what was served was hands down the best dish I have ever tasted in my life & the winner; Chilli Basil Soya Chaap.

This dish not only tasted like chicken but was even better than chicken & it was not even chicken. 😦 Made from soya, who knew soya could be so versatile. This delicacy had a touch of Chinese cuisine. 

Must say this dish was so juicy, tasty, delicious that my taste buds wanted more. Extremely flavorful, burst of spices & juicier than meat. Truly finger- lick'in - good. This dish was just ambrosial.

Fact: they source their soya from a local producer, ensuring diners experience freshness & quality at their max.

Sarson Ka Saag & Makki Di Roti

Moving to their main course, I was served Sarson ka Saag & Makki di roti & wasn't disappointed either. Bringing you the authentic taste of Punjab with such precision, your taste buds will thank you. 

Veganesha Special Sandwich    #MustTry

We then tried their Veganesha special sandwich & it was finger-lickin' good served with their one of a kind chuntey. 

Chutney

Indeed healthy food shouldn't always taste bad, it can be spicy, tangy, flavourful & give you freshness at the same time.  

Puri Bhaji

I also tried their puri bhaji it was just delicious. Spicy & extremely flavourful at every bite. Because we had a kid accompanied with us, we requested them to spice it down & the server was sweet enough & made sure his little fussy guest wasn't disappointed.

Chole Bhature   #HighlyRecommend

Chole bhature was delicious as well. Literally, every dish I reviewed here has been spectacular & this was nonetheless. Creamy & at the same time mouth melting, flavourful but not sharp spices; extremely delicious.

Gulkhand Lassi & Mango Lassi   #MustTry

For drinks I was first served; special Gulkhand lassi & authentic by its look that you'll instantly know it's hand-blended & served with rose petals that made every sip spectacular. Thick, rich & creamy & served in good quantity, it was worth every penny. 

Guava Passion Fruit Mojito #HighlyRecommend

Later I was served guava passion fruit mojito, it was just a piquant drink that you will truly enjoy. If this drink had a feeling it would be well labelled as naughty as it had the right amount of sweetness, freshness, spiciness & sassiness. Just absolutely refreshing drink 

Kulfi Falooda  #HighlyRecommended

I am a big falooda fan & couldn't resist ordering one here, so I ordered kulfi falooda & god this was one of the best I had. Made primarily with pure kulfi & rabdi this was just pure heavenly.

Cheese Garlic Naan  #HighlyRecommend

Cheese garlic naan was absolutely heavenly. It is extremely hard to find a good cheese garlic naan, sharp taste of garlic subtle by loaded cheese stuffing & cooked in tandoor. Yumm 😋

And lastly, I moved to their desert section.

Mango Phirni

I was served Mango phirni which was decent & extremely light delight to enjoy after a meal.

Very Berry Panna Cotta   #MustTry

But my personal favourite, very berry panna cotta dessert. It was just mind-blowing. You couldn't stop having it. It was just the perfect amalgamation of sweetness & sourness from the berries. 

The great thing I realized about this restaurant's dessert was that they were perfectly balanced & extremely light on taste & stomach. Perfect delights to enjoy after your meal. 

Let's talk about service; the waiting time after ordering was optimal. I was served by Mr Kishore & team indeed it was a great service. Veganesha serving staff is kid-friendly. 

But Veganesha is a one-stop place for all foodies with dietary restrictions. A pure haven for vegetarians & a sheer surprise to non-vegs.

From the price point of view, they are reasonable as you are guaranteed freshness & Quality. The quantity to price ratio is also decent.

They have a widespread menu serving thalis, continental, Italian, drinks & impressive vegan menu & much more. It's truly hard to resist. 

Let the food speak for itself & Veganesha won't disappoint you I guarantee you that. Indeed food that is sourced fresh, has a taste no fast-food chains can beat. This was proven true by Veganesha. 

Time to pop the question: Would I recommend this restaurant to my fellow foodies?

Yes, positively 100% I would.

Rock n roll paratha is a cloud kitchen concept that serves food via zomata delivery with its kitchen located in Bur Dubai. The best part about this restaurant, you don't have to find parking, as they bring 'Your' warm meal to You.

What I ordered?

    • Avocado juice
    • Mango lasssi
    • Chicken achari roll
    • Mutton keema paratah

    Rock n roll paratah serves a menu with a variety of options to choose from such as a dedicated section for just cheese paratha to veg & non-veg parathas as well as another dedicated section for just veg & non-veg rolls. 

    Chicken Achari Roll

    Chicken achari roll was spicy & tangy just like pickles it's like biting on chicken marinated in Indian mango pickles. Beware it is Spicy-Spicy. I loved it because the juices I ordered calmed down the spiciness factor.

    Chicken Achari Roll

    The wrap had a good amount of chicken & pickles filling that gave it a tangy, sour & perfectly spiced taste which my tastebuds enjoyed thoroughly. 

    Mutton Keema Paratah #MustTry

    Mutton keema paratah was humongous in size as 1 paratah could easily fill 2 people. The mutton filling inside the paratah was fresh, good & juicy. 

    Mutton Keema Paratah 

    Although it was extremely spicy for my taste. Even the yoghurt & juices couldn't calm down the spiciness. But did I enjoy hurting my tongue & taste buds, YES I did!😁

    Mutton Keema Paratah #MustTry

    Both the rolls & paratha were served with side condiments such chutneys, yoghurt & fried papads that were just delicious to munch on. The green mint chutney was absolutely tasty on its own.

    Chicken Achari Roll 

    Delivery Review: Everything was spill-free & packed appropriately to maintain its freshness & quality. Very prompt on-time delivery. Delivered to you before the food becomes cold; so you can enjoy your meal fresh & warm.

    Avocado Juice #HighlyRecommend

    Avocado Juice & Mango Lassi were just absolutely delicious & perfectly sweetened drinks & by far one of the best I had in a very long time. 

    Mango Lassi #HighlyRecommend

    Apart from this, Rock n roll paratah also offer other healthy drinks such as detox & weightloss juice, which are healthier options to enjoy alongside the meals, that you can enjoy at the very comfort of your own home. 

    Delivery review: Drinks were spill-proof as they were individually cling wrapped & then properly placed into a plastic bag to ensure it's not tampered with & not spilt everywhere.

    Chicken Achari Roll

    I tried Rock n roll paratah's best zomato recommended roll, paratha & drinks; & let me tell you I wasn't disappointed. In terms of price, they are affordable & they have an excellent price to quantity ratio. 

    Even their delivery service was excellent as they were on time, unlike other restaurants where despite placing order I would have to call every 10 mins to know how far they reached. From the price point of view, they were quite reasonable & price to quantity ratio was also decent.

    Rock n Roll Paratah

    Another best thing I really loved about this restaurant was their way of making sure that the food they deliver is spill-free but also tampered-free all the while maintaining freshness & warmth. Things like these have become now of utmost importance since the outbreak of covid 19, in order to ensure the safety of foodies & non-foodies like us because obviously, no outbreak can ever stop a foodie from enjoying a scrumptious meal at the comfort of our own home and available at the click of a button. 

    Check out that filling!

    Time to pop the question: Would I recommend my fellow foodies to order via zomato?

    Yes, 100% I would.
