If you are on lookout for a can’t-beat-that recommendation, then you have finally come to the right place. We will take you to this spectacular dining spot that is tremendously popular in the gastronomy circuit for its mind-blowing curries. Drive down to Trident hotel, Gurgaon this weekend and head over to their curry joyride ‘Saffron’, a fine dining experience that refines this wonderful cuisine. Saffron is Trident’s glorified North-Indian restaurant excelling in traditional recipes handpicked from all over the country and prepared authentically.

Trident in a luxurious glamourous property which extends its sophistication into Saffron. Décor of Saffron is quite eye-catching, with striking dark furnishings giving it a very modern touch. The room is spacious and closely filled with small square formal tables. They have played the décor with tones of orange and black, an unusual combination but a striking one. A cluster of golden pillars are the only indication towards the traditional aspect of the restaurant. One can’t help but be mesmerized by the beauty and elegance of such intense looking décor. The restaurant is a quite expensive one so the clientele is limited and filtered. Mostly you will find affluent families, corporates, in-house guests, tourists and die-hard foodies as their most loyal guests. Live Indian classical music organized by the management does a lot to elevate your dining experience.

If you want to celebrate a special occasion then let them know beforehand. The staff is most helpful and polite. Service is as expected of a five star establishment, smooth and professional. Economy sake, opt for their thali. Not only it will be budget-friendly but it’s lavish as well. Their superb North-Indian menu opens with the starters like, Rajasthani lal boti kebab, dahi ke kebab, pasanda kebab, tandoori paneer tikka, bhuttey aur methi ki seekh, saffron tangdi kebab, hara kebab and patrani macchi. Pick their bohri biryani or a basket of assorted Indian breads to mop up the curries. They prepare a heady range of delicious mouth-watering curries, each one better than the other. For the sweet finish go for the paan ice cream. It’s innovatively refreshing!
