Be social

Ask anyone about getting social and the person would start off about Internet or social networking websites. Thanks to Internet, people now turn to this tool for everything ~ information, mailing, entertainment and much more. Thus, social get togethers have now moved from coffee house to online world. However, this sort of social gathering did not excite Mumbai-based entrepreneur, Riyaaz Amlani, who has trendy eateries such as Mocha, Smoke House Grill. Therefore, he came up with a new social space, a "cafe bar for the youth" that he unveiled last week in the Capital's Hauz Khas Village. "The only thing they have to do is to become a member by shelling out Rs 5,000 per month. And yes the entire money will be refunded as meal or drink vouchers," said Amlani, the brain behind the concept. The place split over two floors of an old building that gives a wonderful view of the Hauz Khas lake behind. At first look The Social leaves one wondering whether or not the place has been done up ~ the design of the building is that of an under construction place. 

In terms of food, the menu contains soups, salads, all-day breakfast, sizzlers, biryani, a Chinese box, burgers, hot-dogs, hot and cold beverages and dessert ~ all at subsidized prices. We sampled the BBQ chicken sandwich served with crisp fries on the side. If it is anything to go by, we'll be leaving our dabbas at home.
