Sorbo: Gurugram's New Moroccan Sip Gurugram's culinary landscape is, for better or worse, ever-evolving. Just when you think you've got a handle on the city's gastronomic pulse, a new establishment pops up, promising a fresh take on something you thought you knew. My recent sojourn led me to Sorbo, a new Moroccan-inspired restaurant on Golf Course Road, and I must confess, it left me rather intrigued. Not Your Grandfather's Morocco One expects a Moroccan restaurant to be a riot of vibrant colours, intricate patterns, and perhaps the faint scent of shisha. Sorbo, however, defies these clichés with an almost audacious grace. The name itself, I learned, comes from the Spanish for "sip," hinting at a focus on beverages. And indeed, they've embraced a more contemporary aesthetic, opting for subtle pastel tones and a fresh, uncluttered ambiance. It’s a departure, certainly, but a rather pleasant one, blending modern design with a whisper of traditional influences. The space, accommodating up to 160 guests with a generous outdoor terrace, feels both expansive and intimate, quite a feat. A Menu of Many Minds The menu at Sorbo is where things get truly interesting. While there’s a clear nod to Morocco, particularly in the "Marrakesh" section featuring ten Moroccan specialties, the kitchen isn't afraid to wander. You’ll find Mediterranean and Pan-Asian influences woven into the tapestry, alongside, rather surprisingly, handmade pastas and authentic Napoletana pizzas. It's a diverse offering, with sections like Tapas Food, Small Plates, Large Plates, Toast and Tacos, Salads, and Bowls to share. This multi-cuisine approach could, in lesser hands, lead to a muddled experience. Here, it largely works, offering something for almost every palate. Sips That Sang Now, to the heart of the matter: what did I actually drink? The cocktails at Sorbo deserve a special mention. The name, after all, isn't just a clever play on words. I started with A Tale of Two Cities, a fascinating concoction of Vodka, Aperol, and a house-made Chili Caramel Cordial. It was a delightful dance of sweet, spicy, and bitter, truly capturing a vibrant essence.
