A trip to the DLF Cyber Hub Gurgaon, Lunch at The Wine Company and Coffee at Au Bon Pain

Green, clean and beautiful-The DLF Cyber Hub

An exciting concept, the DLF Cyber Hub is definitely one of Gurgaon’s major attractions and a buzzing place anytime of the day. As home to over 40 restaurants, including bars, cafes and fast food joints, the Cyber Hub is a gastronomer's delight and from what I could see all around me, there is something here for everybody. In this post, I'm going to talk about my maiden experience here last week and hope to follow it up with more as time goes by.

My friend Poonam and myself have been having leisurely lunches over many years and this time was really no different. Instantly agreeing with her suggestion of the DLF Cyber Hub, I found myself transported into a beautifully designed and very sleek Cyber Hub, India's first one stop destination for food, drink and so much more.
Loved the look and vibrance all around-At the DLF Cyber Hub


The 10 types of people you meet in Gurgaon


Since it was already past 1 when we reached, the place was packed with people looking for lunch tables at the various restaurants.After checking out a couple of places we had originally thought of and disappointed in finding no seats with a minimum 30 minute wait, we decided to look for a place that we could sit down in and enjoy our lunch in - right away. And so it was The Wine Company where a pleasant hostess escorted us to our table and seated us comfortably.  And that was when we decided that we already liked the restaurant we found ourselves in.
Lunch Time at The Wine Company

"Wine-Because no great story started with someone eating" said the graffiti in the washroom at the Wine Company and that thought is echoed through the restaurant.The Wine Company is primarily Continental restaurant and bar with an exhaustive wine selection.They have a Lunch menu inclusive of a buffet or 'a la carte' if you decide to opt for a light lunch.We tried out a vegetable quiche and a grilled chicken with sangria and wine. (more about it later.)



The Sangria Bar was well stocked and the service quick and efficient



Gifts for all and then some!


Interesting Graffiti in the ladies washroom



Cheers



Grilled chicken and a red wine 


Vegetable quiche and Sangria 

Must admit though - The quiche was dry and not half as good as what I'd been expecting.

The bill for two- Approx Rs 2, OOO.


We decided to move to another place for coffee and dessert and since the Cafe Au Bon Pain had caught our attention as we walked into Cyber Hub we decided to head right back there and check it out for the goodies.

A Great little cafe




Cakes, desserts and then some


Great conversation , cappuccino and a blueberry cheesecake

With over 38 restaurants left and counting, I can clearly see the DLF CyberHub becoming a real hot spot for us, so do watch this space for more such culinary adventures...

  2. Lovely dishes. Thanks for sharing. This glamor packed city spoils one for choice with its gleaming shopping malls, uber modern hotels, terrific restaurants, electrifying nightlife and multiplexes, and some fine sightseeing attractions. While Ambience Mall (India's biggest shopping mall) alone ensures hours of blissful self indulgence, no less satiating are the malls dotting MG Road or other pulsating shopping precincts such as Galleria and different DLF marts. Check out Appu Ghar Gurgaon also, a adventure park.
