They say, woman’s favourite three words are- ‘That’s On Sale!’ And I couldn’t agree more.
Flat 50% discount on latest fashion, accessories, gadgets or even holiday packages gets our hearts thumping.
But how about a flat 50% off on you food & alcohol bill? It certainly sounds like my favourite kinda offer!

Dineout India presents the Great Indian Restaurant Festival 2017 {#GIRF2017}.

A one of a kind food festival that’s offering Flat 50% off on your food or alcohol bill at top 1000+ restaurants, across India! From 1st to 10th Feb, #GIRF2017 is every foodie’s dream come true.
Being a self accompanied foodie myself, I had to give this a shot!

To begin with,
1. I downloaded the Dineout app.
For iOS users I For android users I You may also visit their website here
2. From the massive list of restaurants, searched and zeroed on the restaurant I wanted to dine out.
3. Selected the date and time of visit.

And voila! It’s done! My table for lunch at Depot 48 was booked and so was my 50% discount offer on food in three easy steps. Soon I received my confirmation SMS with all necessary details.

Depot 48– As the name suggests, I was headed to pin code area 1100’48’ aka GK1, N block.
As I entered the restaurant, my attention was gathered by the the unheard but heard covers of all commercial songs. The interiors were rustic with few quirky detailing like the cassette wall. As requested by us, the staff then escorted us to the table with most sun light.

The menu was short and crisp. From tempting bar eats to delicious sweet tooth dessert. I made it a point to order one dish from each category, after all you don’t get 50% off on food offer everyday! 😀

Picking our first, special Depot rubbed chicken wings.
I, being an ardent lover for hot and lip smacking chicken wings, was only expecting a little more hotness to them. But I have to make a special mention to the succulent chicken preparation with refreshing sauces aside.

The second course went on a healthy route, the quinoa salad.
This one was my favourites. A perfect balance between quinoa and chicken along with pomegranate, mint and crunchy pine nuts.

Then it was time to wear our Mexican hats with some tacos and quesadillas!

For the tacos, we opted for chorizos with sweet potato in a soft shell. The quesadillas, the classic grilled chicken and jack cheese with corn came to the table. Classic are hence the best, when you need the comfort, you go classic.
And like I send The Great Indian Restaurant Festival doesn’t happen everyday so next up we had the pasta bake, macaroni in creamy sriracha sauce with chicken.
This was my favourite dish of the afternoon. Cooked to excellence, keeping every flavour stable, the dish was simple but a definite hit.

The last savoury item on my table was the Depot lamb burger.
A soft prepared lamb patty can never be a bad one and Depot also amazed me with their just perfect amount of sauce in the burger and their extra crispy French fries on the side!
To end our two-hour lunch, we shamelessly ordered two portions of waffles, one being banana and toffee with caramel along with chocolate waffle with caramelised nuts and chocolate sauce. Oh-my-lord!, what a beautiful end to my lunch. Every bite of the waffle had that crisp crunch on the outside with a soft layer on the side. The sauces added the glorious end touches. These waffles at Depot 48 are going to be my go-to when I crave some wholesome waffles.

With happy faces and satisfied belly came the climax of the story, OUR FOOD BILL! We ate like hungry monkeys but paid just HALF the bill. The perfect cherry that Dineout added to our luncheon.
