Asia Alive - Double Tree Hilton - Gurgaon - 4/5

I will sum up my Asian meal experience at Asia Alive last night as Supercalifrajilistic.

My love for Double tree goes back to the days when i was in love with their Moroccan restaurant Casablanca that closed some months back. I still have very fond memoirs of the superb food i had at Casablanca.

I am so glad that I chose Asia alive for our Anniversary dinner and I can't stop raving about the food and the service. Located at the Double Tree by Hilton at the end of Golf course road in Gurgaon Asia Alive serves a variety of dishes across Asia. The menu includes specialities from Malaysia, Indonesia, Burma, India, Thailand, China and even Vietnam. They also have a very impressive Buffet spread if you choose not to go for A la carte. The buffet has a live dessert counter, a live satay station; a live dumpling counter and dishes across the Asian cuisines.

The ambience is very colourful. Bright colourful chandeliers and massive buffet spread sets you in the perfect gastronomic mood. The staff is very very courteous and one of the best service staff I have encountered.

We ordered a portion of Malaysian Laksa Noodle soup, veg dumpling clear soup, veg steamed Vietnamese Popiah and my favourites steam rice with Thai green curry veg. Since the order was taking some time our server was sweet to tell to pick any starter or desserts we like from the buffet till the order was ready. We enjoyed some yummy olives and paneer tikka and some soft dahi kebabs. Everything was perfect.

The order arrived and the meal was simply superb. The Laksa was outstanding and so was the Popiah. The Thai green curry is one of the best in the city.

Then arrived my anniversary cake and let me tell you it was one of the best chocolate truffle cakes i have ever eaten.

If you are looking for a great Asian fine dine experience then Asia Alive should be your next destination. Two thumbs up from Sam.
