Bikers meal

Elevated super bikes, a World map made of nuts and bolts, banisters propped up with chains, guitars made of heavy metal and brand new bikes on display ~ the description may lead one to think of some garage or bike accessories shop. No, it is neither, but a new restaurant, which bears the look of a garage.
Located in the popular Basant Lok Priya PVR complex in Vasant Vihar, the newbie, Café Torque, stands out with its quirky and ambient décor. And just a couple of glances are enough to shout out its affinity towards bikes and food. An inviting place for Delhi's bikers.  Curated by chef Arun Chanda of Mint Hospitality Consultants, the menu too is a full of biker jargon, with strong European and American accents. Its variety of food could excite both a monk and a glutton, and everyone in between.  The restaurant has even named dishes using biking terminology, like Mango People Party (fresh mango puree blended with yoghurt and mango ice cream), Jerk Powered Chicken Wings and Twisted Lamb Kebabs. For vegetarians there is 2-Stroke Mezze (Greek sambousek with spinach and feta and falafel served with hummus, tzakziki, muhammara, toasted pita triangles and home-made pickles).
Join them to celebrate two marvels of human existence ~ hard biking and meal.
