Giving it a 5 only for their custard buns or bread. I remember the 1st time I had it was when I was in the middle of something and a friend of mine asked me if I'd like to have some, to which I agreed and had it. It's beautiful. The buns are so super soft that it tends to break or fall apart even if you touch it. Take it out properly from the packet and eat it. There's something magical about their custard. It's not eggy, not too sweet and super creamy. Even when I think about it, the taste kind of lingers on my tongue. Ahh.... Beautiful creation. I feel Rs.90/- for a bun is a tad bit expensive but who cares if the food is worth it? Next upon asking the manager/servers what's their hottest selling muffin on their menu and his quick response was the blueberry muffin. Now I have a major soft corner for all things blueberry. I immediately called for one and tried it. It was pretty decent. Rs.90+ GST for a muffin is a bit too much. Next was the chocochip cookie priced at 50 or 60. I don't remember that clearly, it's a fair deal for the cookie to be priced at 50-60 as it's worth it. Also I tried their Madeline which is made from almond flour and sugar. Kind of a cookie I'd say. Quite nice.
I'd like to go back to them to try their almond croissant and coffee. Looking forward to visiting the place...

Read moreIf you've ever been to Korea, or have eaten authentic Korean food (which is delicious), you should NEVER visit this place. They're running a scam for Korean dishes and can only survive in a place like Pune where, I suspect, folks think Korean food is simply take anything that passes as a poor substitute for Chinese and add a bunch of hot kimchi!!
Ditto for anything on the menu that claims to be Japanese, or Vietnamese or anything southeast asian for that matter.
We ordered a Ramen and it was good old Rs 20/- Maggi noodles mixed with hot water and kimchi! Absolute ditch-water, at least it was expensive at Rs 450/-! Total GARBAGE! We actually threw it away.
The other dish was Vietnamese Rice Noodle vegetarian dish and this was some toasted sesame oil lightly tossed over tasteless rice vermicelli in light soy sauce added to four strands of green spring onion to pass as "vegetable". And wait, let me tell you the price on this piece of junk--Rs. 350/-
So there, if you like to throw money on a sorry excuse for Korean, Japanese, or Vietnamese dishes, by all means patronize London Muffin, but for me I can cook better southeast...
