Oh, What A Night!

This was my first review on Zomato, and I hope this isn’t my last.

So, my first words here are for a good time I had at a place called He Said, She Said. First, locating the place was quite easy with GPS, so that wasn’t a problem at all. The valet was prompt too. We had reserved a place at 9 pm on a Saturday night, and even though we reached a quarter of an hour early, the staff quickly seated us at a table comfortable for the 7 of us.

So, the division was that all four of the girls were keen to drink, and none of the 3 boys were. So, we started off with the Classic Chicken Chilly, the Murgh Malai Tikka, the Margherita Pizza, the Assorted Bruschetta Platter. The girls started off with a Breezer (they were kind enough to ask my friend if the bottle she’d ordered was acceptable), a Mojito and a Long Island Iced Tea. The quantity of all four dishes were good, and the Murgh Malai Tikka is highly recommended. It was stunning! Melted in our mouth and the chicken was succulent. The Margherita Pizza, according to my only vegetarian friend with me then, tasted like cheese naan, and it did. The other two dishes were okay. The Tikkas were so good, that we re-ordered them along with the Chilly Chicken. Oh, did I mention that the guys ordered Cokes and Lemon Iced Teas. Yes, we don’t have the balls. Oh, one of my friends was driving, so not a possibility.

The second round, apart from those two dishes, consisted of 3 French Fries with Cheese and I will tell you, by this time, we were stuffed. Atleast, I was, but my genius friend decided to order some more. The girls had another Long Island Iced Tea, a Breezer and a Margarita. And boy, were those drinks strong. Two of my friends were drunk, giggling, rolling around by the time they were a quarter of the way through the second Iced Tea.

The third order, we denied the two of them from ordering any shots, that HSSS is famous for, but the two other girls had A Nimbu Pani and The Flying Kiwi, which they mentioned were potent, too. So, for a 150 a pop, the shots were quite cheap. The Veg Burger, and a Potato something (I think it was a stir-fry) were wasted, because we were so full!

We didn’t explore too much of the restaurant, but it seemed quite spacious and the music wasn’t painful, like a lot of other places. One suggestion would be to try and accommodate some bigger washrooms, because the ones you have now are quite small. Also, the staff is helpful and the service is prompt. Might be that they’re swarmed when the crowd actually starts pouring in, around 11. Unfortunately, that was when we left. Oh, and the total bill for 24 items, including drinks, was Rs 5430. That is cheap!

The only terrible thing about HSSS is the overhead on the Breezers! The price for one bottle was atrocious, people. Do NOT buy Breezers here. HSSS has a markup of 140+ rupees on Breezers. It seems horrible to pay that much when you’d rather have them at home for much cheaper. But the management was kind enough to give us a bottle of mineral water instead of giving us glasses of water every time. They didn’t even charge us for it!

Overall, the whole experience was rather pleasant. Apologies for the rather long review. Hope it helps! All due credit to the management of He Said, She Said. An excellent place to visit for youngsters who like to have a good time 🙂 and not a great deal of money.

 

Rating: 4/5

Points taken off for the Breezer being too pricey.
