Review of Hotel Manasarovar The Fern

Located at the lobby of the Manasarovar - The Fern...

Located at the lobby of the Manasarovar - The Fern Hotel in Begumpet this restaurant was primarily meant for the guests of the hotel who stay in and enjoy some good food without going out.

But recently they are also marketing it as a casual dining place with a lot of offers on the deal apps like Little and Nearbuy.

They have a a lunch buffet which you can get at a steal price of 449 or thereabouts on the apps and that would be a great way to enjoy a weekend or weekday lunch .

The place is quiet and feels aloof from the crowded streets though its at the heart of the city.

I had the buffet here and it was a nice experience albeit with a little hiccups.

Starting with the good things.
The corn flake fritters were delicious and so was the fish majestic .
The chicken biryani despite being on the buffet was a quite good . One of the good biryanis in buffet i've had recently.
The Thai fish curry was delicious too if you love Thai food.
The creamy chicken salad was also great.

The strawberry souffle was delicious and a welcome change of desserts for me in buffet.
The Jalebis , were good , you can always ask them to get it heated .

Now some which need improvement,
The desserts were sub par barring the jalebis and the strawberry souffle.
But the cinnamon cake was really dry though it had the flavors aplenty and The pineapple pastry too wet .
The soup could do with a little salt , i eat very less salt and it felt a little unsalted for me so i think that's something which can be looked at .

Overall, if you get a deal then its a really fine buffet with lots of options for everyone. And as promised by the chef , the food will get better everyday .
