Seafood festival at Frangipani

Passed on all the sales with a saintly smile, only to land up splurging on the new stock? Turned down all the plum proposals, but netted the yummiest boyfriend? Abstinence doesn’t always quite work the way you plan it.

Navratri may have had you staying away from non-veg delicacies but now you’re ready to go flat out with the marine specials at Frangipani. Be charmed as ever by the 24-hour restaurant, soaked in sunshine and fragrant frangipani shrubs. Tie on your bib and attack their seafood spread with gusto. Tuck into deliciously barbequed sand lobsters, sautéed juicy jumbo prawns, deep-fried baby sharks and the most succulent yellow fin tuna steaks. Our Trendy Taster recommends you start with the hearty Arabian Sea Red Shrimp Bisque with cognac, then go on to a healthy Mediterranean salad and North Atlantic langoustine with citrus aioli. Wash up, panting with pleasure, on the shores of satiety with Chef Joy Bhattacharya’s designer Blue Swimmer Crab Cheesecake.

Bet your day goes swimmingly after this.
