Restaurants To Visit For Valentine’s Day

Mezze Mambo, New Delhi

Delhi’s much-loved Mediterranean restaurant has launched a special V-Day menu for you guys and may we say, it features mouth-watering dishes. Think Shroom Hummus which is a fresh take on the classic hummus. A big part of Mediterranean cuisine is salsa and salad—if you can’t pick between the both then they have Ezme Burrata which pairs Rose Za’atar-crusted Burrata with a tangy Turkish Ezme. And for dessert, we highly recommend the Vanilla & Strawberry Cheesecake. Another decadent treat would be the Strawberries & Cream Sundae comprising Bailey’s gelato.

Pair it with Valentine's Watermelon & Feta Salad and Crispy Prawns Kataifi which is equal parts bold and flavorful, and certainly packs a punch.
