Pizza Rome

Felt like to have Pizza!
"Pizza Rome" has good reputation of its taste.

I couldn't find the restaurant and passed by. Asked people and found.

Got enter, but still didn't find it as restaurant.

As I got close, found it as restaurant.

Inside.
I wonder why red light? It was sunny day, but inside seems dim a bit.

There are seats in the space near the entrance.

We got seas beside window and ordered Pizza half/half!

Looks good?
Regular size Margherita and Dolce Vita(575tk)!
Liked simple taste of Margherita. Cheese with tomato sauce, basil. Quite satisfied with the taste.

For dessert....Tiramisu(350tk).
It costs more than Pizza (if we share), but the taste is really good.
Real tiramisu, I can say. I am often disappointed with sweets here, but it was one of the bests.

After dessert, espresso(200tk).

Small.....though strong coffee.
Please compare the sizes of coffee and milk. I think better coffee in milk pot and milk in coffee cup!

Sharing pizza by two of us, 500tk for each. It is quite reasonable. (300tk for pizza, 200tk for coffee.....isn't coffee expensive compared to pizza??)

They have delivery as well.
If you feel like to order pizza, you can call them.

Bulltlers Chocolate Cafe

I have heard people talking about chocolate place opened recently in Gulshan.
The shop came from Dublin, Ireland. All chocolates are imported from Ireland.

I am not much a chocolate lover, but gave it a try with my friend.

Haha, we went to have chocolate for dinner!

On the left side of the door, there are terrace seats.
Mosquito didn't bother us, but sounds from road did. Take seat in whichever you prefer, air-conditioned room or outside with fresh wind and sounds of horns.

Boxed chocolate are also sold. Seems good for gift.

You can have a seat, or just buy your favorite chocolate at counter.

We took seat outside and discussed over menu.
I was attracted cheese cake at first, and then sandwich....but thought I should try chocolate something as I came here!! It's our mission.

My friend order "Dark Chocolate"(340tk) drink.
She led me try. It was sweeter than expected, but real chocolate.

 My choice was "Butlers Signature Waffles". (395tk)

Ice cream and chocolate (to pour more on waffles!!) come together. Very much chocolate! Ice cream was good with waffles.
My friend chose "Butlers Chocolate Crapes"(395tk).

Yes, real chocolate.

But something strange....though we ate and ate, it didn't seem reduced.

I could finish 2 waffles out of 4....yes, I could have finished all, but sure it would make me regret later.

All I needed was....black coffee!!

It came with chocolate again. You can choose one from more than 30 kinds.

My choice was "70% truffle".

Description is intense 70% dark chocolate truffle centre in a dark chocolate shell. I like chocolate bitter. But still.....somehow it was still sweet. But good with coffee. (liked large cup. Americano for 220tk)

If you find my review negative, it's not! But just too sweet to have chocolate waffles and crape, and chocolate drink for dinner.

My recommendation is.....order pizza or sandwich and have chocolate drink served with a chocolate.

Or, go with your friend and order one pizza/sandwich, one waffles/cake/crapes and share. Then that will be perfect!!

I expected many foreigners, especially girls. But there are quite a good number of Bangladesh guys! Interesting...

Anyway, let's give a try if you have sweet tooth!

MERAKI

Weather in winter is quite good in Bangladesh. (except dust...)
If you want to enjoy meal/tea outside, this is the time.

"MERAKI" serves good food in pleasant environment!
The restaurant is located North of Gulshan 2 circle, on your right hand if you come from Gulshan 2.
How was it refreshment for me to have lunch outside in sunny day.
They have seating arrangement both inside and outside.

Restroom is also good...like hotel!

Something like ginger tea was served complementary.

MERAKI has western food.
What we ordered is,
Cream of Chicken and Mushroom (299tk)

A bit too salty, but taste was very good.

Beef Steak Tortilla Salad (399tk)

If you want to have something light, the salad will do as your lunch.

Lasagna (850tk)

Cheese!
It was very soft and juicy with melted cheese....

After meal, how about a cup of coffee (150tk)??
Staffs were polite. A manager came to greet us and asked if everything is alright. Everything was quite smooth.

VAT 15% will be added to tall bill, but no service charge :)

Signature

I like Thai food..... when my friend asked what I want to eat, I came up with Thai food though the friend came from Thailand (which I realized later on).
"Signature" is Thai food restaurant located between Gulshan 1 and 2, East side of Gulshan Avenue.

Restaurant is in the first floor.
Whenever you visit, you will not find not many customers though you will find many waiters.
When we visited for dinner time, the restraint was empty. Actually it was empty till we left.
It may be comfortable if you want to avoid people, or it may not be comfortable to be surrounded by many waiters.

We ordered Crab curry(750tk) with steamed rice(120tk), Padthai(450tk) and Somtam(450tk).

Somtam, I really like this taste.
My friend who lives in Thailand gave positive comment as well.
It was quite spicy.
Then, crab curry.

You may not like hard shell. Mild and taste is very good, but you have to be careful to eat shell and avoid hard parts.
I have tried chicken curry before, and remember it was quite spicy. If you are not good at spicy food, crab curry is your choice.

Actually, it was more than enough for 2 people. But we ordered Padthai too.

Good, but I couldn't really eat....

I brought leftover, and it became my breakfast, lunch and dinner!

Chef is Thais, but lives in Bangladesh for 35 years. He worked at Westin hotel previously as I heard.
I think you will be satisfied with their food. Staffs are nice and polite.
When you want to enjoy Thai food in quiet environment, it is one of your choices.
