Tigers Experience - Dimsum Bros Chefs Table

The honor of being at the Chefs Table is an experience never to be missed . The Chefs table is a great opportunity for the man who sweats it out behind the scene to please guest in all shapes and sizes , he handles more rejections than appreciation from the guest , its human nature to find faults but to show gratitude or even recognize the talent of the man and his team behind the scene - Seldom . We need to change this and start appreciating ALSO . Each chef has a different hand , food taste different from every hand , all chefs are masters of their skills hence know as chefs - they not only cook but they show their aptitude and passion in whatt hey do through their skills . Tiger was witness to the same at Dimsum Bros in Gurgaon Ambi Mall . Dim Lighting , Candles , host to greet you and guide you to your table , center kitchen divided horizontally one side kitchen the other side is the well stocked bar . The bar side is mre like a  hangout lounge for a perfect Saturday evening .

I love their name Dimsum Bros ...  it says Chinese Fine Dinning and now i know why - they have some of the best wines in stock , they make amazing cocktails and have a well stocked bar . Each dinsum is handcrafted  LOL obiviously  hahahahahaha. Well being a pukka punjabi always thot Dimsums were only ment for starters - nah nah  They Make a Full Complete Meal -lesson learnt . Shared a few moments with the chef who explained to me how to judge a good dimsum - Wrapper , Filling , Steam  which brings out the flavors of the ingredients and presentation .

Well here is the Menu of the Special chefs Table :

The basic concept of Dimsum Dinning is to serve small portions so that you can try a wider variety of meats ,flavors , sauces in Dimsums.  And Dimsum Bros did that well they kept my mouth on the toes LOL

Let me tel u a secret - started with one full dimsum , then half , then quarter  then just smelt and then just saw the filling and assumed the flavor LOL .

Four type of sauces to go with the Dimsums - Didn really need them - the dimsum had their unique flavors to relish.

I loved this picture I took - the baskets being steamed .

Overall a great experience of flavors , inventions , Attentive  friendly team who know their stuff , super concept - and a beautiful display of talent by the chefs , Dimsum Bros is definitely a place to sit back relax enjoy your drinks , cocktails and the chain of fresh Dimsums - No Hurry food . 

Trust me we need to get away from the Momo school of thought and get into understanding DIMSUMS - they are quite different from the Tibetan momo's.   from Wiki : While dim sum (literally meaning: touch the heart) was originally not a main meal, only a snack, and therefore only meant to touch the heart, it is now a staple of Cantonese dining culture, especially in Hong Kong. Superbly brought to India by Dimsum Bros and managed by Ashish and and Ajay .
