It rarely happens that I write about food
on Moonshine and Sunlight, I have another blog called “The Foodie – Land Blog”
which focuses solely on food {you can check it out here!}. But, I wanted to
write about the food bloggers meet up we organized recently for Au Bon Pain,
India and their new winter menu!
First, let me tell you about the food I
tasted from their new menu. As a host I couldn’t try everything from the menu,
but I did manage to try the major portion of the menu.
They came up with bubble tea in the new
menu and it is apt as bubble tea seems to be all the rage at the moment! Out of
the two flavors, Strawberry and Passion fruit, I like the latter more.
They confectioneries have three new
additions. The chocolate and normal monkey bread. The monkey bread looks very
interesting but sadly I couldn’t taste this as this finished before I got a
chance to try!
The double chocolate crois- bun is
something I would like as an accompaniment for my bubble tea or cold coffee but
this tastes best when cold and they served it at room temperature the first
time.

They have introduced a sandwich, which they
call “Start-wich”, as they are promoting this as a breakfast sandwich and it is
pretty good for breakfast. Fully loaded with fresh veggies and a poached egg in
case of the non-vegetarian variant.
Another sandwich is their mango peri peri
sandwich. Which is served in a baguette and has this different but interesting
flavor. The chicken and paneer peri peri sandwich were equally great. The tangy
and spicy flavor in moderation was what made it so unique.
The other two drinks are non-alcoholic
mulled wine and toffee latte. The toffee
latte might be to water-y for some people, I personally like watery coffee so I
liked it. The Mulled wine was the best drink out of all the drinks. It is a
warm drink, loaded with fruity flavors.
The last thing was the Dark lava overload cake, which was supposed to be like a lava cake, but wasn’t and the cream on
top just worsens everything. Did not like this one.
Other than this others were pretty good and
the price of this menu is also quite reasonable.
All in all, I really like “Winter Hotties”
menu from Au Bon Pain. This menu is available at all outlets across India.
We were very happy to successfully host the
meet and put a smile on our fellow bloggers’ faces! For more details click here.
Do let me know your views on this and what
you think about my food photography skill ?
Loads of love,
