A new age at The Chakraas

Palm lines, numerology and tea leaves — and you consult your fashion horoscope every day. Moon salute, cobra pose, upward-facing dog — you’re more grounded every time you say, om.

But true inner peace comes from getting your favourite girls together to chat, chew and chill. And the revamped drinks, dishes and decor at The Chakraas make this resto-lounge the place to do it .

Your spirits will rise with a sip of their seven new signature cocktails — one for each of your body’s seven chakraas. Choose the Divine Goddess (vodka and chocolate liqueur), the Kama Sutra (strawberries infused with white rum and chocolate), or Radiant Beauty (blue curacao, fresh lime, tequila and tabasco sauce).

Then feast your senses on the new Mediterranean, Lebanese and Teppanyaki menu. Start with the popular Seafood Bisque flavoured with Dill. Stylish Chicken Teriyaki and Five Spice Sticky Rice, or for veggie fans, Crepes Primavera and Hortarika Briam. Our Trendy Taster says the Sliced Grilled Fish with Lemon sauce is delish enough to make you forget even a horrendous hair day.

On the rare chance you run out of girlie gossip, the new seating around the transparent kitchen lets you spectate as the salmon gets sliced. Or view the Delhi skyline from the window.

Take it all in. And let it all out.
