After reading so much about this new food chain, I was really looking forward to giving them a try. But, I had to wait as they were not delivering in my area. So, the day I saw them listed in Kharghar area without a second thought I decided to order food from them. Since, they offer wide variety to choose from like sandwiches, wraps, all-in-one meal, biryanis, salads and now introduced pizza as well, I opted the all-in-one meal - Bhuna Kebab Meal. The meal was delivered promptly at my door steps with a very nice packing which flattered me completely. So, Yes! "Superb Delivery" - bang on! "Kickass Food"---- Hmm, lets find out !!
BHUNA KEBAB MEAL:
After getting impressed by the awesome packaging of the food, the next thing which impressed me was the quantity of the food. It was more than sufficient for me to finish it alone. The kebabs were perfectly cooked and rich in flavor. They were succulent and tasty, so I enjoyed having it. The rice was perfectly cooked and mixed with a spicy gravy which made it a complete meal. I especially liked the green chutney which was like a cherry on the cake as it made the meal spicier which I liked :)
So after enjoying this meal, I posted the pictures on my Instagram
handle @amchi.foodie and to my surprise, I won a complimentary meal from
Box 8 under a photo sharing contest which was going on. So happy me :) got another chance to try the meal from Box8. This time, I ordered Chicken Overloaded Meal.
CHICKEN OVERLOADED MEAL: The meal was overloaded with chicken pieces as the name suggest. The meal had three variety of chicken tikkas combined in a meal with some masala curry. Well, I was happy with the quantity of the chicken in it but the gravy was a bit on the sweet side which didn't please my taste buds much :( So, I might skip this meal when ordering next.
MOONG DAAL HALWA: Served in a small box this moong daal halwa won my heart. I love desserts and this halwa was perfectly sweet not on higher or lower side( just as I like). So, moong daal halwa is on my favorites list.
ICE TEA: Well, nothing great about the ice-tea. Therefore, I can be skipped if you don't need something to drink along with the food. As the drink was sugary I didn't find it very pleasing.
And again few days back on a lazy day again thought of ordering from Box8, this time, it was wraps and salad.
CHAR- GRILLED SALAD: Oh Yes ! this one was good. If you love salads, give them a try. The grilled chicken pieces tossed with lots of vegetables - corn, jalapenos, olives, cabbage and some desi dressing which gave it a sweet and sour taste I loved it. If willing to start your meal in a healthier way do try the salad.
CHICKEN BHUNA WRAP: unlike the wraps you get in the market which have a lot of oil to make it crispier this one from Box 8 was different. This Chicken Bhuna Wrap had chicken pieces cooked in some spicy tikka masala. The wrap was filled with mustard sauce which gave it a very raw taste and the onion added for the crunch gave it a bitter taste. So, overall it was just okay not very appealing.
CHICKEN SEEKH KEBAB WRAP: Out of the two this wrap was the one which I enjoyed. The seekh kebab pieces were mixed with some spicy sauce which gave it a sweet and sour taste. And the seekh kebab pieces were well cooked so this one comes in 'order again list' :)
Overall my experience with Box 8 was satisfying. I love the compact food packaging and the timely delivery. The food is tasty and the options provided is extensive. And they offer value for money food.
