The decor of the venue is average but the food is yummy, innovative and mouth watering. The presentation is superb. They specialize in fusion food. The portion served is less than expected. Staff is polite. Not suitable for physically challenged as it's on first floor and there is no lift.
Kalatmak Kolkata is the newest addition to the world of Molecular Gastronomy in the City of Joy! Serving elegance deliciously is what their tagline reads which they've lived upto. My first visit to this place at Alleby Road turned out to be superb one with good food, excellent hospitality, mind-blowing concept, wonderful decor & a nice ambiance. This place boasts of an accomodation capacity of 100! Yellow dim lights placed strategically on the ceiling with hanging dim chic lights surrounds the place with blue textured walls. The prime colour being yellow & green in their logo has been well reflected in the restaurant as well as one gets to see the brilliant play of colours inside the restaurant! A giant screen is located inside the dining area which serves as an additional advantage to the property as they live screen matches and also play melodious music by eminent artists & bollywood music videos! The flooring is vintage geometric symmetric which is yet again a fresh as well as an unique concept here in Kolkata. The entrance is a rectangular passage with seating options on one hand leading to the huge dining area!
Coming to the food, we had opted for :
Puff Pastry Tomato Soup, Molecular Chinese Nest, Mexican Papad Cornitos, SPDP, Trio Paneer Tikka, The Dimsum Platter, Bharwan Aloo & Spaghetti Alio Olio as recommended by the stuff! Yes, they serve authentic vegetarian delicacies. The Tomato Soup was something very different that we tried out. The broth was creamy with a reddish texture depicting the presence of tomato in it. The bowl was covered with puff which one has to dig and explore the soup! When consumed with the puff, the soup tastes amazing! The Molecular Chinese Nest was a cute appetizer loaded with chilli paneer inside it. Crispy from the outside & flavourful from the insde, this dish was something worth cherishing! Loved it. The Cornitos and Paneer Tikka were splendid as well with the latter being very colourful with different types of chutney served with it. When infused with chutney, the paneer tikka turned out to be spicy yet soulful! Loved the texture as well as the taste! The Dimsum Platter consisted of three different types of colourful dimsums! On enquiring, the stuff informed that they were not coloured neither preservatives were added to them, but they were cooked with real vegetables and the colour of the dimsums were authentic & real. The Spaghetti was again a hit with a fantastic taste to it.
We chose Chuski Margarita and Hawaiian Colada to quench our thirst. The Chuski Margarita was heavenly with the refreshing margarita and the fizzy chuski (basically 'gola' or crushed ice lolli popsicles). The flavour that it possessed impressed me and the presentation deserves special mention! Definitely loved it. The Colada was again thick to it's consistency. It had an energising element to it. Had it with great delish.
Healthy to the core, stomach filling, easy on the pocket, this place has surely left me awestruck by their quality and quantity of food! I'd definitely come back to try out some of their other offerings from their gastronomic menu! Service is quick as well. They also serve Jain food as the stuff mentioned. If you're looking for a filling lunch/dinner place with family or friends, this is the place for you to be in.
