Today , I had the pleasure of dining at Pondicheri, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience! The moment I walked in, I was struck by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The decor was modern and chic, with a touch of south India .
But what truly stole the show was the food. I ordered the chilli chicken , fish , prawns and they were cooked to perfection - crispy, flavorful, and served with a side of delicious chutneys. The service was also top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff who made sure our glasses were always full.
What I loved most about Pondicheri was the creative twist on traditional Indian cuisine. The chef's use of fresh, locally-sourced ingredients and innovative flavor combinations made for a truly memorable meal. The manager Mr.Rangaswamy was very friendly and made sure everything was perfect
Overall, I highly recommend Pondicheri to anyone looking for a unique and delicious dining experience. Can't wait to go back!"

Read moreSuper tasty meals. I went in as they were the only restaurant on the mainland participating in the Lost In Lagos/ Mastercard Restaurant Week. I ordered the lamb off the tandoori appetiser. The minced texture was not to my taste and they replaced it with tandoori chicken, which was super juicy and delish. The corn and chicken soup was uber lovely, light and if I may say, refreshing. Next came the tastiest, most delicious biryani rice with chicken I have ever tasted. I have a feeling the menu was adapted to Nigerian taste buds as it hit every single note! All this was accompanied by a well constructed refreshing glass of freshly squeezed pineapple, orange and apple juice. The final note to a great lunch was sweets of Paan Kulfi, a delightsome thick creamy frozen flavoured dairy dessert. This was a great start to the #MRW2020 event and this choice of restaurant is perfect . And the ambience was welcoming, not over done. It was simple, yet not letting you forget the Indian influence. I highly recommend this place. Excellent...
