An Afraa experience

Afraa in City Centre has a lounge bar and a restaurant. ‘Afraa’ means white in Arabic and the decor is in shades of white. The walls are adorned with bottles and there is soft lighting all around. The food is delicious and the presentation is lovely. The service is great and the music isn’t too loud. I was introduced to the DJ Sethi there and he played some soft lounge music. You can actually have conversations at Afraa.
The view is amazing and the wooden floors add a nice touch. Afraa is ideal for a dinner date and you can make it special with candle light. While at Afraa, don’t miss out on the ‘mushroom cappuccino’. After my Afraa experience, I’m pretty sure Shisha will soon be history.
Overall I would rate it much above Pan Asia, Mythh in HHI and most of the other lounge cum restaurant bars in the city. But I will have to revisit LaCucina and relive the experience there before comparing it with Afraa. The scene of fine dining in the city is fast changing and there is a movement towards these new restaurants which boast of excellent ambiance and great service.

responded:Perhaps the experience of AFRAA is only available to the class of people who visits City centre even for buying sanitary napkeens. Those people forget the reality of India and its decaying environment,the poverty liners and the kind of leadership is there in the country. Even after 62 years of independance, what % of people can visit such discothek or lounge bars where half naked ladies are hobnobbing with their worse half.
