Equivalent to indulging in a fling when you’re in a committed relationship
You know that feeling when you unexpectedly discover a gem? When you go to watch a film only for your favourite Khan, but realise that there’s this newbie little supporting actor in the same film who surprises the fuck out of you? You’ve probably come across the line ‘Big things come in small packages’. Almond Flower, ladies and ladies, (and in true anti-climax fashion), does not quite fit the bill with regards to the hype that we’ve just built above. But hey, it’s a surprise package nonetheless. Read On!
There’s an inexplicable joy in discovering new things, especially when you discover new places to eat and drink. It’s as good, if not more exciting than discovering a new porn site. You just got off one to come read this review, didn’t you?
Almond Flower is that kind of place which you may or may not notice whilst you’re on your way to your original destination bar. But if you do end up noticing it on your way, you might just want to make a pit-stop; something like deciding to indulge in a fling when you’re in a committed relationship.
Now, judging from how it looks from the outside, you wouldn’t have imagined that this quaint little hidden place could also have an open rooftop facility. It’s like you never imagined that your partner could do even THAT in bed.
At first, you might go WOW looking at the cute little huts waiting to embrace you with dim-lit colours emanating from aesthetic lanterns. But don’t be surprised if the mushy ambience ends up creeping you out by the time you’re ready to move your butt outta there.
It is at that very point that you might also realise that you just spent the last couple of hours drinking in a place called Almond Flower. Now why the fuck would you name a drinking joint Almond Flower? Wait for it…
The floor seating overdone with mattresses and cushions might tempt you in the beginning, but that’s just before you realise that there’d be too much of effort involved in trying to comfort your fat ass. Fuck the floor and settle for the conventional chair-table arrangement in that case.
There’s nothing exceptional or unique about the daaru menu. So grab your favourite drink at a reasonable price and enjoy the Bombay breeze, together with the view of two gigantic almond trees staring at you like it’s nobody’s business. *Now put two and two together, Einstein.*
All you Maggi fans out there, head here to gorge on your favourite yellow spaghetti in a manner you probably haven’t before. MAGGI with a TWIST is what these guys call it, and some of the Maggi items can really blow your mind. Like who would’ve thought about Maggi with butter chicken topped with sunny side up. Sounds orgasmic? Fuck yeah it is!
The waiters might appear to look dumbfounded and clueless when you call them over, but they’re a friendly bunch nonetheless. But guys, what’s with that orange uniform? Your employer might want to re-think that wardrobe for you.
All in all, Almond Flower might just be the fling you’re looking for, but hey, who gave you the fucking right to cheat on your partner?
