  • No sooner we learnt about Mocambo getting the prestigious ‘Culinary Heritage Award’ by Intach, we knew we had to be here. We sampled some of the decades old Signature dishes marked “H” on the menu, to give you a list of all that you need to try. Let us know how you liked the episode, it’s the first of many coming each week.

    Haven't been there for a while. Not sure if their staff’s attitude had improved over the years,from the tendency to "kick guests away when they are done" to a more warm & welcoming one.

    Thanks a lot for this video. Mocambo is and will remain my all time favourite. I've tasted all the non veg items that you showed - - mouth watering stuff, all of them ! They also make a fantastic starter - - Fish Muniere which is drier than the Bell Muniere that you had. Also I love their melt in the mouth Mutton Peshawari Kabab. Their Tuna Dip is another starter which is a great way to start your dinner along with the amazing cocktail Rum Collins. Talk of Mocambo and I can go on and on - - - Peter Cat is no match ( an entirely personal opinion, apologies to PC lovers).

    Great review. Very precise and to the point👌 Personally I believe best prawn cocktail and deviled crab(very cheesy and lot of crab meat) in town are served at Chapter 2....I found the deviled crab at mocambo is less cheesy and less craby... And the prawn cocktail is a bit tangier and the sauce is a bit thin.
    But no doubt they make the best 'a la kiev' in Kolkata.. Never new any Kolkata restaurant serve 'Baked Alaska'.. Will surely try it😊

    @shreyasighosh6415 3 роки тому

    Wasn't able to join this platform to watch all the videos lately but must say most of the dishes except prawns and crab has been my favorite. Chicken Ala kiev is one such dish I prefer to avoid due to the excessive butter but otherwise it's always an awesome feeling to be here every time. Desserts here as you said is honestly mild and it doesn't disappoint either after having so much cheese and butter...😍🥰

    Common dude. The three big restaurants- Mocambo, Peter Cat, Flurrys are all so overhyped. Their menus are dated, service poor, the servers are grumpy, decor is tacky and the food average at best. You should highlight restaurants that actually do a good job instead of these. Places like Spice Kraft, Fabrica etc are so much better.

    Definitely not for the faint hearted and not for the ones who care for heart health. These dishes contain the amount of cheese and butter that are used for an entire month in a normal household. Besides, the entire kolkata meat supply chain is so corrupt and politically controlled that you never know what kind of meat you are eating in a restaurant. Best avoided

  • @namratabhattacharya3938

    We did try all of the dishes mentioned in this review and sorry to say noneof them matched expectations - Let's start with the good -1) service at Mocambos was quick and very courteous even though it was a packed house.2) Ambience is lovely. Great place for a beer and chat or even a whisky and cigar (not sure if later is poss) 3) Yummy crab soup The not so good - 1) The prawn cocktail - is just prawns dunked in a vat of thousand island dressing, taste is novel but nothing to write home about and completely missable 2) The devilled crab was an oily gooey mishmash of dressing and sauces and barely any crab meet- not worth the money and fuss 3) The beckty muniere again, just overpowered with white sauce and oily..pls avoid 4) Chicken a la kiev, a little better in terms of taste but by the time we got to it we were done and kinda had to force it down.. 4) Baked Alaska - don't think these guys know what a true baked Alaska is with all the layers, so-so. Overall - for the dishes in this video review, Not reccommed

  • @sankhog6890
    @sankhog6890 2 роки тому

    A racist restaurant which shouldn't have existed except for short memory and lack of principles in general public.
    Was my favourite restaurant to have what is known as Continental food in these sort of legacy Kolkata restaurants. Unfortunately with time got exposed to a lot of the dishes at source locations and realised the original tastes nothing like the shabby stuff served here.

  • @soumitadas9193
    @soumitadas9193 3 роки тому

    To be honest, we went there in March. The food was low standard. The prawns in the prawn cocktail were smelly and the ala Kiev was half the size and the chicken inside was hardly 10 grams. In top of that they took 1 and 1/2 hours to serve just 2 dishes. Now coming to the service. Service was like tortoise and people were simply rude. The added bonus was, we got food poisoning after eating there. I think they only serve properly to food bloggers and no one else. It simply felt like I was back in British raj where the natives are treated badly for entering these establishments. If you don't believe me go check out their reviews in Zomato.
