If you like your drink to be out of the league, subtle yet infused with flavors then do try this one. A Gin concussion infused with Capsicum flavors, coriander, Thai chilli reduction & togarashi. It was DIVINE!! Not to miss for sure, we visited them to taste their World's largest Dimsum collection, which actually is unmatched and unparalleled by any other Oriental chain around. They offer 68 varieties of Exotic Dimsums from around the Asia. Listing Few of my favorites amongst all: - Spiced Prawn Wontons dipped in chilli and black bean vinegar with added chives: My FAVORITE amongst all. Dipped in flavorsome sauce bed, these were Delish. Rather I should say DIVINE!! -Korean Chicken Bao: My 2nd FAVORITE amongst all. They were soft, pillowy, mouth melt-in Baos with delicious Korean Chicken filling. The spiced flavoursome chicken within the doughy Bao was nothing but Perfection. I still have the after palate taste that seems so fresh. -Lao Mai Gai: This was the fanciest amongst tried. A classic lotus leaf wrapped glutinous rice Chicken dumplings that had unmatched flavors and aromas. -Cheung Fun Chicken and Chives Rice Paper Rolls: Something unique with crispy and soft layers of rice paper with chicken and chives filling and seasoned in soy sauce. -Chicken and chives Jiaozi: pan seared Chicken dumplings golden brown to give you a crusty and juicy filling bite. -Xia Long Bao: Soupy chicken leg Dimsums served individually in a Bamboo Box. Soupy and delicious. -Potato and Wheat Starch dumplings: Chicken and pokchoy filling that oozes out with flavors. After this Lavish and Filling Dimsums meal we were served their in-house speciality that further enhance the culinary experience. "Amuse Bouche", Lychee and Lime palate cleanser that was a delight to taste and had a luring visual appeal. It was refreshing and settling, before the main course was served. With not much appetite left for mains, we wanted to try their most talked about dish, " Yaki Udon noodles" and we are glad, we didn't missed this delicacy. Smooth thick Japanese wheat noodles tossed with few veggies in sesame oil and soy. A complete dish in itself, this is A MUST TRY here. Chicken Massaman curry with Steamed Polish Rice: An intermediate dish to Thai and Yellow Red curry, this is a coconut based flavorful chicken curry with crispy fried onions and cashew. We ordered minimal Mains as we didn't wanted to leave without tasting their Desserts. The dessert section at PA PA YA is the most talked about on social media and around. They have some of the Innovative, Iconic desserts from the Continent that are presented in a delightful and engaging manner. It's a Sin to leave the Restro without trying their Desserts.

Pa pa ya is one of the best Pan Asian restaurant in the city and a much spectacular one because of it's architectural glory.Once you enter this place you feel elevated.Its a product of Massive restaurants chain and it meets the expectations that comes with this branding. The restaurant is a late dining place for families and have different kinds of seating suiting everyone. We started our brunch with Crystal dumplings...pokchoy and chicken served with three sauces which ranged in degree of hotness. Bao which is steamed and fermented bun had Korean chicken stuffing.This was by far the best tasting bao to me.As soft as it can beautifully crafted and had a juicy and flavorful chicken stuffing. Lao mai gai were lotus stem steamed parcels with chicken leg cooked with some sticky rice and their custum made sauce.This felt like a miniature meal in itself. Glutinous rice were rice coated chicken dumplings which were steamed with it's own moisture and stock served in mini plates within dimsums basket.These were so flavourful and juicy. Cheung fun was a form of rice paper rolls having crispy veg filling and was topped with soy sauce. The rolls were served cut open and they had a delicious crunchy filling inside. The cocktail which made the brunch more beautiful was Lighthouse- it was an refreshing vodka based cocktail made with galangal,lemongrass,some pineapple and orange.The vodka itself is infused with lemongrass. This was a perfect summery and refreshing drink one can ask for. Main course was Chicken massaman curry,yaki udon noodles and sticky rice. Massaman curry is a relatively milder version Thai red curry and it was made to perfection.The aroma of their traditional spices could be felt from a distance.This was a flavorful curry which went well with sticky rice. Yaki is pan fried in Japanese and udon noodles are thick wheat noodles.These were stir fried noodles which had few vegetables and soy sauce base with a hint of sesame oil too.It was a complete package in itself.Higy recommended. Adding to this entire brunch experience,the server suggested "chocolate ball on fire". The dome shaped chocolate ball had scoops of ice cream inside,only to be revealed after the server pours hot melted chocolate sauce on it. Served with roasted dry fruits and brownie crumble,this dessert is to die for.Classy,rich and amalgamation of various chocolate variants,one can't stop after having the very first bite. The entire brunch experience was splendid affair clubbed with their more than perfect serving staff and prompt service.I had a walk around their open mini kitchen located in the centre of entire sitting only to fill myself with the aromas of fresh lemon grass and galangal which were getting treated to go in their preparations. The flavours and menu is meticulously planned and executed with so much variety perfected to taste distinct yet delicious. delicious.The classy and tastefully designed interiors clubbed with extraordinary pan Asian fine dining experience with a touch of modernity yet retaining authenticity makes it on the top tier of restaurants.

Had been on my wishlist since such a long time, I cant even tell! And am i glad i finally visited ? YES! Starting with the welcome shot (amouse bousche) that had a watermelon covered in delicious foam, I knew there and then how amazing this whole experience is going to be! We started with the asparagus, corn and burnt garlic dimsum which was served in a bed of black bean sauce: DELICIOUS and recommended. The next I had was something which was beyond my imagination. and exceptional. The truffled imitation oakwood, has to be the FINEST bao I've had. Served with mustard sauce, garlic paste and mung bean noodles, this one was a delight. The bao was filled with mushrooms and cream cheese. This was one of the most extravagant dish I've ever had. PLEASE GO TRY THIS! Post which we had the sushi tree which had the following sushis Avocado mango: tangy but since i'm not a mango person i'll skip this Asparagus sushi: well, it had a crunch edge to it and hence i really liked it. MUST TRY Kappa maki: Cucumber sushi, good one too the one sushi that had my heart was the CRISPY VEGETABLE MAKI SERVED with dehydrated spinach. A MUST MUST MUST TRY. It's a chef special and i had two rounds of it.. even the california roll that i ordered was bland in front of it. Next we had the crispy lotus stems which can be found at any pan asian restaurant nowadays, so this can be avoided. Next we had was the shitake and burrata croquetas: good crispy mushroom croquettes. Yummy! Another CHEF'S MARVEL was the beer battered avocado tacos: a little spicy but wow! RECOMMENDED!! The thing that disappointed me was the edmame and chickpea slider, maybe that was something not for my taste! For the dessert we had the papaya classic, chocolate ball which had an overload of chocolate with brownie, chocolate, vanilla iceream, oreo and anything and everything chocolate along with nuts. But what stole the show was the liquid hazelnut fondant cake, matcha and blueberry quenelle: QUDOS to the chef for the concept and plating. The cake was so delicious which was covered in a bed of matcha tea. This one stole the show for me hencee RECOMMENDED! For the drinks we had the exotica and thirsty ride, but honestly when we had such a wonderful spread of food, the drinks took a sideline. However it's worth mentioning that they dont serve hot beverages. Special mentions to henry and gaurav who made sure i was served with the best food with delicious recommendations. I've never seen such a cooperative staff who knows exactly what's their in each of the dishes they serve. I'm definitely going to visit this place again.

Pa Pa Ya is not just any average fine dining, it's a completely different experience with Pan-Asian cuisine delivered on your table by their staff with precision and perfection. I visited during the day hours for my lunch over a weekday and as far as my experience is concerned, the ambience is quite impressive with bright daylight coming in from the dome, adding up to the grandeur of the interiors and the aura of the place. The light ambient music playing at a mild volume is another blissful highlight of the place. I was acknowledged with the special cocktail festival going on, which had some signature concoctions prepared in different spirits.I tried a few namely- FRUIT TEA & TONIC which had this fusion of green tea with elderflower, strawberry and basil followed by PURPLE SUMMER which attracted me due to the presence of exotic mulberry flavours infused in Jasmine Cream Lemonade. Both the drinks were Gin based. Talking about the food, the course begins with a fancy presentation of Amuse-bouche which has chunks of watermelon with flavoured froth to do the cleansing job well. Beginning with the Starters, we had these super-delicious CHICKEN DUMPLINGS which were pan-seared and had just the right amount of chicken fillings tossed in gyoza sauce. Being a big-time sushi fan, next couple of dishes were no less than a treat for me, my favourite being the Sushi-tree which basically was a platter with a range of sushi's beautifully presented.Fillings had spicy tuna, salmon and prawns. Little surprises came in amid the course meal with lychee flavoured chilled sorbets. The starters had me quite full yet I couldn't miss onto their Pork skewers tossed in Barbeque sauces. The flesh was tender and was cooked up to perfection. With everything being so perfect, the course meal had to end on a drool-worthy note with their signature chocolate ball infused with orange liqueur, sugar coated nuts and hot chocolate sauce catalysing the whole flavour of this perfect finisher. All in all the place is definitely a must visit.
