Whenever I asked anyone for a good place to have North Indian cuisine, Zaffran always topped the list. This made me curious and more excited to visit this place. Hence, finally, when I planned for the same, I visited the Kasbah one in Greater Kailash 1 with a friend. It is situated on the 3rd floor of the building.
Under my high hopes, I entered the vicinity, the ambience was very soothing. Full of natural light and basic music. The seating is simple too, not too huge. The staff was very courteous and on their toes to suggest us their best.
So I was all excited to hog on the North Indian Delicacies. And I must say Zaffran is one of the places where I found the Vegetarian delicacies far much better than the Non-veg ones. And you have to trust me on this as I am a pure Non-vegetarian! Hehe 😛

Zaffran is a good option to have a relaxed meal with your friends or family. Though it is a bit towards the expensive side, but worth it once in a while! Being Chatori! 🙂
