Since we are focussing on North Indian foods for the meantime, we haven\u2019t added other style cuisines to the menu. So, it\u2019s a kind of mixed response from the people. However, they are many people, who just come here to have the taste of North India, we are so happy of that. We are trying out new dishes now. We hope to expand the menu in 1-2 months<\/i>\u201d, says Anup.<\/p>\n<p>The restaurant also features a mixed crowd. Youngsters create the centre of attraction during afternoon sessions, while family audience are interested in dining out at evening. \u201c<i>Technopark officials make a good number among our customers. Even we get bulk orders from there. We are planning to start a new branch near to Technopark in 6-8 months. Talks are going on and hope new branch will be started this year itself.
