Cilantro restaurant review

Greetings guys! I recently had the pleasure of dining at this cilantro restaurant review haven in Kado, Abuja: De Cascade by Cilantro. The space is a harmonious blend of soothing aesthetics and nature-inspired decor, and while the atmosphere left me entranced, the culinary experience left me with mixed feelings.

Needless to say, Cilantro Restaurant has been on my to-go list for quite some time now. Having trained in Michelin starred restaurants in France, and as the former chef de cuisine at the Japanese embassy a short distance away, you know you are in good hands. Upon arrival, we were ushered into a spacious crescent shaped booth, already the famed truffle butter sat there waiting. If you are going on any regular day, the set menus should be your best bet. Just one of each and you would have already spent more than the Discover 3-course set.

Cilantro restaurant review

A fine dining restaurant known as Cilantro Lagos opened its doors to customers in March , with a mission to change the Indian cuisine narrative in Nigeria. There is an incredibly positive energy that exudes from Cilantro. A long row of well-lit fountains and thick palms welcomes you from the gate to the main entrance, leading to a beautiful wooden desk. From there, you can stroll into their magnificent outdoor space, a magical garden. The space is simply beautiful. The combination of the stunning landscaping made up of giant palm trees, flowers sprouting along the perimeter and the centerpiece fountain, all perfectly lit to highlight the beauty of the outdoor space, will leave you reluctant to ever leave! The indoor dining space is adorned with elegantly crafted wood throughout, giving it a warm classic feel. The large glass-walled grill section on one side of the restaurant is a stark contrast to the rest of the space. A graffitied wall adds some spice to the interior of the restaurant, a little attitude to an otherwise sophisticated space. Cilantro thought of every detail. Intercontinental: Smoke barbeque wings, chicken tenders spring rolls, plain nan, Peshawari Nan, and many more. Indian cuisine: masala papad, vegetable samosas, Kai chi, fish 65, Paneer 65, and more. Grills and more with a price range of to 12, naira budget. Sunday, March 10, Exquisite Magazine — Fashion, Beauty and Lifestyle.

They are famed as one of the best, if not the best, Indian restaurants in Abuja and Kano. NOSA: The menu is just so many things and not any thing at the same time. Please, can they focus? I get the random Continental items that make their way on to menus at speciality cuisine. Like grilled salmon, pasta, chicken and rice but pizza! We repeated that exact same order at Cilantro just to, you know, compare and contrast. NOSA: Just leave the samosa alone.

I was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion of the Hokkaido scallops. There were no bitter undertones or tartness to this. Both of my favorites. Imagine eating a chicken breast that is a bit dry but more tender and clean. It was very aromatic. You can view the full menu here. Share this: Twitter Facebook. There were smaller bits of seafood inside the pasta as well. Sunday, March 10, As much as I love Sherlaton, the cheese naan at CIlantro is cheaper, and they give you a lot more than Sherlaton does. The menu here is a bit too wide for my liking. The steak sandwich was a juicy and flavorful blend of steak and bread.

The large glass-walled grill section on one side of the restaurant is a stark contrast to the rest of the space. I loved this. Like grilled salmon, pasta, chicken and rice but pizza! The winner was definitely the Tiramisu Feuillantine though. Get the latest food, restaurant reviews and exclusive recipes sent straight to your inbox. A bit too sweet and heavy, it would not have been my first choice to go atop my pasta nor my lobster, unless they tone it down a little. The lobster coral or egg sac made a creamy, sweet sauced with an oceanic taste, very pronounced. Email Enter your email address. We gave it a shot, hoping to be enlightened but were left a little confused instead. You can really savor the freshness from the meat and chives. Having trained in Michelin starred restaurants in France, and as the former chef de cuisine at the Japanese embassy a short distance away, you know you are in good hands. I would recommend it. It really tasted just like paper. The flatbread had great flavour and a slight smokiness.
