Rahul's Post

There are evenings that begin with the best of intentions — a quiet drink, perhaps two — and end up becoming the kind of memory you carry with you long after the night is done. My twentieth wedding anniversary dinner at The Green Room by Mia's in Greater Kailash 2 was precisely that kind of evening. What was supposed to be "just one drink" became, quite effortlessly, our favourite night of the week. I should say at the outset that The Green Room is not a place that announces itself with fanfare. It overlooks the central park in GK2 with a quiet confidence — a touch of retro charm, a whole lot of character, and the kind of easygoing warmth that you only ever find in your genuinely favourite kind of hangout. This is Tensi Mangal's brainchild, and when we had the pleasure of meeting her during the course of the evening, it was immediately apparent that the warmth of the space is an extension of the person behind it. There are restaurants and bars that feel designed, and then there are places that feel lived in. The Green Room is emphatically the latter. Saturday nights here are Jazz Nights, and that evening, a live saxophonist filled the room with the kind of soulful melodies that make conversation easier and silences more comfortable. For Sadhna and me, celebrating two decades of marriage, it was — and I say this without a trace of sentimentality — absolutely perfect. The music didn't intrude. It simply wrapped itself around the evening and held it together. Now, to the bar. The cocktail menu at The Green Room is built around a conceit that could easily have felt gimmicky but lands with considerably more intelligence than you might expect: every drink is named after a famous film. I began with the Indiana Jones — white rum, gin, citric acid, jalapeño, peri-peri, saffron, and lime. Spicy, sharp, and genuinely adventurous, much like the man it is named after. My second drink, the Pulp Fiction, made with gin, Aperol, Martini Bianco, jalapeño brine, orange bitters, and olive, was bitter, briny, and punchy — three qualities that Tarantino himself would likely approve of. These are not cocktails designed merely to look good on Instagram.
