Had the hotel breakfast buffet. Not bad at all. Excellent spread of bakery goods, all fresh and delicious. The chocolate roll was a brilliant way to start the day.
They also have eggs, dosa, and bacon made to order. The scrambled eggs were served quickly and efficiently. The bacon, however, was far better than that. It was clearly made fresh and served hot.
Brilliant breakfast, would be back again. For instance, tomorrow, after waking up upstairs.
Probably the best seafood I've had in Pondicherry. Not a huge Seafood fan in general, but the Grilled Kingfish and Grilled Calamari were out of the world. But, don't be fooled by the Zomato price range. It's a lot more expensive, but well worth it.
This place is situated inside a beautifully restored courtyard style french property owned by the Neemrana hotel group. It has tables set out in the courtyard which is beautiful at night with dim lights and candles lit all over the place.. it has an open, breezy feel to it, perfect for a casual candlelight dinner..
I just tried couple of items only - the vegetable Ratatouille (which came with noodles), creole soup and a banana lassi.
The lassi tasted more like a milkshake but was tasty nevertheless. The Ratatouille was delicious, although the it wasn't as tangy as it should have been. It was more on the cheesier side. The star of the evening was definitely the creole soup. This place serves a fusion of french and tamil food, mostly creole food and i was keen to try atleast one creole dish. The soup was absolutely delicious, a must try!
Overall, a good place to try once, it has good service and ambience..
Do try the grilled squid.. its was just so tasty.. the best I would day..
Ambience was prefect, food was perfect.. Totally worth the money.. for a quiet dinner with a sexy food
Didn't know this place is a Neemrana property and it happened to be one. We walked in as we were hunting a nice place to dine in for the evening. Again a very colonial place, it was empty when we walked In and suddenly the places filled up. Food was okay, service guy was very sweet but too dam slow as the main food was getting cold waiting for the accompaniments. Will definitely wants to stay here and see how the rooms are in the future.
The ambience, decor and food. Everything about Carter Blanche is French. The service was great. We ordered a portion of sand lobster, grilled kingfish, pomfret, grilled calamari and Puducherry special curry which is served with rice and chapati. A first try at sea food, must say I loved the kingfish and calamari. The prices are a bit top notch ; cost us a 4.5k.
Great food and ambience 💗 will surely come back the next time I'm in Pondicherry. A nice, comfy, customer friendly place. I absolutely loved it.
Simply I loved that place. It was very romantic. The ambiance was cool. They have both indoor and outdoor sitting arrangement. Situated at the white town area. I loved their beautiful decor, and found a pure french touch. We ordered chicken fillet with garlic, butter and herb sauce. Foods were very tasty. It was a great experience and last but not the least prices were moderate which was good ☺
Carte blanche , although having a very limited menu has oodles of character.
In the courtyard of a French Indian house.
Great service , lovely cocktails and amazing food.
O personally had the tamarind fish curry with rice and chappati and omg it was expectional.
Everything we ordered of the menu was great.
Don't order the pinacolada, gets too hot before you can finish it !
Mist visit
Among the quaint lanes of French colony of White Town in Pondicherry, you are hardly ever short of French cafes to dine at. Take my word, however, that this Carte Blanche will take make you come back again and again.
Even though it is hard too spot from outside (quite a tiny signboard by Indian standards), you are quickly transported to a beautiful courtyard cafe from any of the French towns.
Their fresh vegetable soup is easily the best soup I have had in India. As for the Ratatouille, I have to admit I haven't had any before to compare with, but it left a delightful memory in my mouth right from the first bite. I am sure I will be back to Pondicherry soon just to dine at Carte Blanche again.
This is a great little restaurant if you need a break from Idly, thosai and currie. Both my wife and I found the food delicious and creative. The food looked no different from other Indian food but was complex in its taste. The ingredients were organic and clean. Was not expecting this sort of quality. The staff were friendly, especially Stalin. Yes that’s his name! Keen to help out with your queries and always had a recommendation or two. Was so good that we went there for dinner 3 nights in row. Highly recommended, especially Stalin!
The food was well what to say, it was French food!! Cooked really well, served extremely well but tasted like hell, if eaten without the additional sauces. If you eat it the way it is supposed to be, then it's quite good.
The place is pricey. Quantity served is quite low but more than enough to fill your hunger, don't go by size.
Try to go in the late evening, before that they are a bit ill prepared.
Beautiful colonial setup and great food . The home baked garlic bread stole our hearts. The blueberry mocktail is the best that I have ever had. We had tried the pasta and a vegetable soup as well which were quite good .
Good and tasty French food, you can eat beef and pasta over here. I's not costly : count 700-800 rs if you want somes drinks and desert with your meal.
The place is also great.
Love the ambience and the food, ratatouille was the best I had so far, they got some yummy options , the building is 200 years old and was renovated around 18 years ago. They've done an excellent job.
One of the popular French Restaurants in Pondicherry. The food is decent although you may find it a bit bland. The ambiance is the main point of attraction for this restaurant.
The food was awesome. The food is little expensive but worth the money. Great place to try french cuisine.
They custom made chicken fillets for me with a pepper sauce. Was cooked well. Love it
Good but little costly. They will not give any roti or rice kind of thing with their meal.
