It was midnight and I had just picked up my friend. Where oh where shall we go at this hour of the night? Is there no decent joint which would happily serve us hungry folks?
In our epic adventure we stumbled upon Monsters Cafe! Almost everyone who works this side of Gurgaon knows this place for the amazing food it delivers, recently they opened their sitting area as well.
Now remembering directions in Gurgaon is tough, but writing down the directions for this place even tougher, it's near Galleria Market, let's just stick with that for now!
We enter into a backyard with chairs written, lights strewn around, making for a beautiful sight! I had a girl with me so they put some candles on the tables, “to stroke the mood!” Perhaps! Little did they know it'd take a lot more than some candles to get the job done with!
We ordered the Wokked Hot Garlic Non Veg Dimsums with a Monsters Bunta and a Cold Coffee.. If you'd had Monsters Dimsums in the past you know they are good, but to have them fresh and hot, they're kind of EPIC!
We had ordered Bunta and Cold Coffee just as chasers or downers little did we know we were gonna taste the best Bunta and Cold Coffee of our lives!
Yes, Midnight fare is a bit expensive than usual fare, but with food this good, it is worth it!
We thought to now sample something that has a history to it, to see how they've approached the classics. We ordered a New Yorker Sandwich, a simple prep of chicken salami, lettuce and bread. Well they gave us the option to choose our bread (brown/white) so that was nice. When the order came, it came with a generous serving of potato wedges which was heartening and had lovely mouthfeel, the sandwich in itself had something missing, I am still not sure what it was missing but something just did not sit right in it!
Overall Monsters happens to be a must visit if you're in Gurgaon post 12, some misses may happen and that's okay.
Edit: The place being an empty place almost every time I go, now has a cover charge of ₹500, with rude staff.. get food delivered if you must, don't go there!
Overall I'd rate Monsters 2/5
