I received a food tasting invite from Mineority by Saby. I know the name sounds groovy. Chef Sabyasachi has come up with this wonderland when lifestyle from mining region of India has been depicted tastefully. Hence the Mineority.
Spent Sunday afternoon at this beautiful place. The tasting included bunch of mind-blowing preparations viz :
Virgin watermelon mojito - Melon flavored mojito is a book to start a meal when you have travelled for an hour to reach the venue.
Appetizers we had included:
Signature Black Chicken Chunks - Chicken grilled to perfection. The coal factor and black sesame paste made the chicken's sacrifice worth. Coriander chutney was complementing flavors of chicken. I loved this preparation.
Hill Coriander Sichuan Prawns - A visual delight by all means. Luscious prawns tasted amazing with the spices they used. The gravy was nice. I tasted 2-3 spoons of gravy without prawn too. Crackers were given for sides which were very tempting.
Kalimpong Chilli Cheese Rolls - I just love spicy food. When I hear chilli, I just say Yes, bring it on ! Shortly a neatly presented dish came. By simply looking at it, I could feel the crispy laminar covering. Rolls had the kalimpong Chilli sprinkled over it. Trust me, it was just hint of the chilli powder. In first bite, I could feel spice, yummy cheese and crispy covering. Liked it ! If there is way to reduce the oil content, please try. It wasn't a hindrance for me.
Mining Club Cutlets : Deep fried cutlets with that expected crisp. After a long time, I enjoyed cutlets.
Latin Queso Fundido – Liked the nachos served.
Mineority Fried Chicken - This fried chicken made me recall KFC. Dip was really yum. Chicken was tasty too. The coating wasn't oily at all. Remarkable !
Main course included 2 items.
Chingri Malai curry : Prawns curry always acts as a Showstopper. Curry seved here was creamy, thick and flavorful. Coconut milk base of curry was magical. Prawns were superb. I enjoyed this preparation with plain rice.
Shillong Mylliem Chicken : Chicken cooked in North Eastern side tasted great. Along with chicken, Pav was served. Like the ones we get with PavBhaji. This was a new dish for me. Liked it !
Desserts:
Tres Leches Cake : It's a three layered cake where condensed milk was the key ingredient. Sugar levels were really moderate. Hence I could enjoy the second serving of cake.
Dehaati Cookies n cream : Cookies originally from Bihar served with cream. Never tried such combination before.
Jurrasic Cheesecake : Cheesecake with chena base. A mild sweetish preparation. A distinct one to remember amongst the regular desserts stuff.
I enjoyed my meal. Thanks Mineority team for hosting us.
I went with my friends for the first time to this place n decided that this wouldn't be last because food was awesome n service was best. Guys this place is worth if you want to try something new and hatke from daily life food! I would definately recommend this place.

A place which has become one of my favourites because of the ‘out of the box’ food and drinks menu. The ambience is nice. The general feel is pretty similar to neighbouring Lord of the Drinks & FML. My first visit was around the time when I was pretty obsessed with starting my dinners with French fries or nachos. So, I ordered Loaded French fries. I wasn’t disappointed as the plate was actually loaded with lots of ingredients. My friend ordered Golden Fried prawns along with a gin based cocktail called ‘My yellow canary’. The starters were really tasty and the drink arrived just the way it looked in the menu card, pretty and attractive. For main course we ordered Asansol club murg makhanwala and one mutton dish which came in a tiffin box and also had chana chiwda (I am unable to recall the name). We concluded our meal by ordering Cinnamon Toffee Puff. I only had a bite as I was happy with the taste of lingering in my mouth. We clicked a lot of pictures before leaving as the ambience and the decor was very inviting and lovely. Overall, we had a great time! I am looking forward to visiting it soon once this COVID-19 scare is over.

Intended Rating - 3.5/5
Mineority by Saby is a Restobar located in Fortaleza Complex in Kalyani Nagar.
The restaurant is known for food from the mining regions of India and the world and hence is the name.
#Ambience
The ambience is modelled to show the connection to mining. We can see wheels, levers and simple machines hanging on the walls.As we enter, we also get to see a 3-D painting on the left with 3 mining workers with their helmet lights on and a tiffin box in front of them.
We can also see cages and birds hanging from the ceiling. Going forward we can see the spacious bar. The front portion of the bar depicts a cart carrying coal.The seating has a lot of variety from steel chairs to sofa chairs.
The place is adequately illumiated and one can feel positive vibes all around. The ambience on the whole is uncluttered which makes you feel relaxed.
We can also see mining worker helmets hanging across the floor.
We can also see wall frames related to mining, mining workers etc and glass painted with. machinery designs. There is also a sizable rooftop section where once can enjoy weather permitting.
It also consists of a small bar.
#Service
During my visit, the service was a little slow initially, but later on it became extremely slow.One of the mutton dishes I ordered didn't reach my table for more than an hour. Later on, I was told that the mutton is not cooking properly and after so much time, it is still raw. So, I was asked to order something else.
#Food
Mutton Kasa- This was a mutton dish in a semi gravy preparation.It was garnished with coriander. The spices were on point and the taste was good, but the mutton could have been cooked better.
Hill Coriander Sichuan Prawns- This had prawns stir fried in a concoction of fresh sichuan pepper from Nagaland and Hill Coriander from Meghalaya along with ragi cracker and other spices. It was accompanied with papad and the dish was decent in taste. Nothing spectacular about it.
Signature Black Chicken- This was a showstopper dish. It had grilled Chicken Skewers with a black sesame paste marination.It was accompanied with
Green chutney and Naan. The chicken pieces were succulent,flavourful and extremely well cooked.
#HighlyRecommended
Calcutta Chicken Biryani- This was a complete let down. The very look of it did not have any remotest resemblance to Kolkata biryani.The aroma was missing. The flavour of the rice was ordinary, so were the potatoes and chicken pieces.
To make up for the time we lost, they served us a complimentary dessert.
Goran's Bajadera- Bajadera is a Croatian dessert made with layers of biscuit, nutty nogat and chocolate. It was overly sweet and failed to please our taste buds.
I had a 50% off on Food Bill offer from Dineout. So, that saved a lot of money. They were courteous enough to not include the service charges in the bill.
Visited this place on a Saturday evening - great crowd - amazing music and we loved both the sitting - indoor as well as rooftop.
We had Coal Grilled Soya Chaap, Momos and Paneer Butter Masala Platter (YUMMYYYY all of them).
We took Green Apple Mojito and The 3 Penicillium Shots - Impressed amazing presentation of the shots that came in injections. HAHA
Great ambiance. Great food & drinks. Menu can be much better. Font very tiny. Had-
Signature Black Chicken - 5/5
Chicken momos - 3.5/5
Royal Chicken Basket - 4.5/5
Bend it like baichung - 5/5

Food and Drinks are good.
Love the cocktails options they had.
Food was reasonably good.
Ambience is also good, I refer to sit outside (they have outdoor sitting)
Staffs are really good.
Only one -ve point, you guys need to improve the service quality. It was very slow, slow enough that we think for another option (like to change the place itself)
we had spinach quiche, char grilled fish and pheonix chicken wings. every dish was so good and the plating was so amazing. the chicken specially was cooked with love it seemed. properly spiced and flavoured. crispy outside and juicy inside. perfect. we had gone there for an architectural case study. every corner and nook was just too perfect. the colours were vibrant. the walls were adorned with creative murals.
At prime location of Kalyani Nagar Pune. Staffs are very polite. Signature Black Chicken a must try dish...I swear you will not regret. Sorry to say, their Kolkata Chicken Biriyani doesn't taste like Kolkata, hence not to waste money on that.
Went for Sunday buffet at Minority with a few friends and the food was awesome. Everybody enjoyed the food and drinks. Good variety of veg and non veg options in buffet.
We'd gone for Sunday brunch today, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The ambience at Mineority is truly fantastic, and the attention to detail is easily observable. The seating is comfortable, in a well lit environment, and the service is attentive without being intrusive.
The food was uniformly good, across the starters, the mains and dessert. And the cocktails were the proverbial cherry on top! All in all, it is easy to recommend this place to you, whether for Sunday brunch or otherwise.
This place is famous for it's ambience. A lot of vibrant colours with amazing wall paintings are a major attraction.
Not just the ambience but the staff is also friendly and manages to impress you with their quick service.
Special mention for the fried chicken. Huge chunks of chicken deep fried with an amazing thick crunchy outer covering tastes mind blowing.
Harrissa prawns are slightly spicy prawns. They serve almost 6 huge prawns with an amazing dip.
Chicken wings are always a safe option. They taste really good and juicy.
The best part about this place was the dark devil cake. Served with chunks of fig. It's a layered mud cake and the flavours of this can be felt in every single bite.
Updated:
Continues with their OG menu and cocktails. The restaurant does need some maintenance to the older decor and a minor reboot. Ordered Guwahati Pork curry and Chingri Malai curry this time round. Exceptional, except maybe the sticky rice could have been cooked better. Sangria pitcher was refreshing. Still a great diner and would love to keep coming back.
Exceptional cocktails and small plates. Mineority has kept it's food quality consistent and good. 70% of the menu is a must try and one can enjoy a leisurely lunch here even on weekends. On weekdays, do ask about their 4 course meal.
Lovely place, the food is extremely delicious!! I loved the starters the most!! Must try the signature black chicken 💯 The staff is friendly, Must visit place💯💯

Came here on a weekday and the place was almost full.The ambiance is beautiful and you appreciate it more when you read the story behind it, printed on the menu.
We had ordered the Imperial renghan khaosuey and I am an absolute fan of this dish. It was a coconut based gravy and had a very filling portion. This dish was a gastronomic bliss. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED (5/5)
The next I had was a club chicken steak which was utterly disappointing.
The steak was not seasoned well and we were basically just chewing. The mashed potatoes were not bringing in the flair to the dish. The portion size of the steak was not fair to the price paid. NOT RECOMMENDED.
The service was good.
The food here is absolutely delicious. The cheesecake specially had the perfect amount of sweetness!! The quiche was pretty good!! The ambience of this place is great! Its a fun place to with friends and family. It is a little expensive but totally worth it.

Unique and pleasing mining based ambience from interior to serving plate and menu everything is mining based. Service was good and fast.
Cocktails
Handia Madi
It is beer based cocktail. Refreshing blend of beer, gin, honey and coconut cream. Frothy beer made from rice fermented in a handia. It was served with lime wedges. Squeezing lime made the cocktail taste better and less bitter. The presentation of this cocktail was amazing it was served in different sized handias. It was amazing. Loved it.
Bent it Like Baichung
It was a blend of gin, old monk rum, red wine, white wine and palm jaggery. It was uniquely presented in a football shaped container. It was good.
Narangi
It was Vodka based cocktail and refreshing combo of orange and mint. It was perfect in sweetness. Loved it.
3 Penicillium Shots
This was a spicy cocktail. It was mixture of whiskey, vodka, Ginger honey syrup, gondhoraj(aromatic lime) and green chillies. This flavourful blend gave different flavors, first a mild sweet and refreshing taste which converted to spicy kick of green chillies. Loved it.
Starters
Litti Chokha and Ghugni
Four smoked littis which were amazing, dough balls with flavourful sattu(gram flour) stuffing. Littis were perfectly roasted. Chokha was of baingan which was placed on banana leaf in an earthen pot and was topped with finely chopped onions. Roasted mashed baingan was amazing and goes well with litti. Ghugni was of kala chana and dry. It was light on spices. Loved it.
Tribal Fish
Fried Fish with crispy coating of batter with patra, from inside it was soft. It was served with tamarind dip, onions and lime. Brown colored fish was placed in dark blue plate and garnished with yellow mustard sauce, this contrast colored dish was eye catching. It was good.
Coal Grilled Soya chops
Soya chops were soft and juicy. The soya was marinated with there signature black sesame paste, which give it a bitter taste. It was ok.

Medium spiced keema with crunch of Khari churma was good. It was topped with half fry, onions, green chili and lime, sprinkles of red chilli powder. It was good and very different.

Calcutta Chicken Biryani
Calcutta styled biryani with potato and egg. It was mild spicy. The aroma from biryani was heavenly and made me to dig into it. Rice was a little under cooked. Chicken was well cooked and was mild spicy. Over all the biryani was good.
Desserts
Jurassic Cheesecake
The texture of cheesecake was perfect. It was soft and flavourful. Presentation was lovely. It is Inspired by Chenna Poda a Orissa cheesecake. It was amazing loved it.
We also had Tres Leches cake which was also good.
