Verde ... the new exclusive..!

A nice exclusive cafe that can be found in the very heart of Clifton (Near SZABIST) is a definite place to add on the "to visit" list if you haven't been  there already. Upon entering the small green gate you get a lovely refreshing view of the garden (where I believe they grow most of their vegetables), fountain and lights that present a cool at the same time creative ambiance for the place. Sheesha is also served these with a variety of flavours (we had mint and watermelon), but that is served on the deck area that has been made not inside (a small hall surrounded by glass to see the view outside).

The service (when we went) was excellent with the food coming in on time without us having to wait or worry about the time. We had ordered Pizza (Beef Pepperoni) that had a thin crust and an amazing layer of cheese with beef pepperoni. We polished on the slices, savoring the taste of melted cheese and beef and the deliciously crispy yet somehow soft crust. The dessert was a bit of a disappointment though. We had mainly ordered two desserts - Chocolate Lave and Crème Brulee. The first to be served was the Chocolate Lava, and though it looked highly appealing (I am a chocolate lover so anything that has chocolate has my vote), the serving size was incredibly small and the lava of chocolate didn't ooze out like many that I have tried in other restaurants/cafes. On the whole the sweetness was just right as along with the ice cream that complimented it well.

The Crème Brulee on the other hand was a complete disappointment. Served in a small bowl, it too could fall under the minute portions list (if ever any would be made), and the taste too was not as well considering the fact that the sugar was burnt from the sides more that it should have been and the middle was too soft. Over all on a scale of 1 - 5 I'd give it a 4; that too because of its outlook, ambiance, soft lighting and overall look that it projected.
