In search of Churros

Churro is a fried dough snack that is traditionally popular in Spain & Portugal.. It can either be thick and long or thin and knotted as well (sometimes) with sugar sprinkled all over.. Generally regarded as a post breakfast snack to be accompanied by an appropriate dip and topping..

There are two theories behind it's origin - one says that it was sourced from China by ancient Portuguese traders and was later modified to it's current format and the other more wide accepted theory states that these were originally developed by Spanish sheperds as a quick snack for thier daily consumption on the fields..

Guess what, we have a place in town now where you can gorge on authentic churros found in different flavours.. The only hitch is that they are only available to ticketed audience at RDB Cinemas at Sector V.. However fret not, you can also give them a buzz and order without entering the multiplex and they will deliver the same to you at the entry gate.. Moreover, they are opening standalone outlets soon at Bhawanipur, Southern Avenue & Ballygunge as well..









Loved the vibrant yellow colour of the brand in general.. Let's get to the most important part now - how does the taste buds react to thier churros??

The best part about thier churros (irrespective of the flavour) is the fact that they are extremely soft yet crispy bcz they are all freshly baked before serving.. We tried the following flavours:

HARI CHUTNEY: Dipped in spicy dust powder and topped with Hari Chutney with a slight undertone of mint in it.. Perfect for a spicy savoury..




TOMATO CHUTNEY: This also has a similar dip like the previous one but it's topped with 🍅 chutney - spicy and chatpata - loved it to the core..



MAD HOUSE: Dipped in Nutella and topped with chocolate nuts - this one has an authentic choco crunchy taste..



THE DARK KNIGHT: Star of the spread - dipped in Bavarian chocolate, filled with liquid chocolate and topped with Kit kat chunks - this one is a chocholic's dream come true..



MIXED NUT: Dipped in peanut butter, filled with salted caramel and topped with an assortment of mixed nuts - this one has an unique taste and shouldn't be missed out on..



PEANUT & LOOPS: Similar to Mixed nut with the only difference of topping - fruit loops instead of mixed nuts.. Looks attractive too apart from pleasing your taste buds..



Yet another unique addition to the already available gastronomical delights in town - try it out today.. This one is a snack with a difference and it doesn't burn a big hole in your pocket as well..

Thanks a ton First Idea PR for the invite..
