You know the saying, 'The way to a man's heart is through his stomach'? Well, either that saying applies to anyone who loves food or I'm a man. And I'm definitely not a man.
What appeals to me more than the first impression of any eatery, is the consistency with which they continue their service and menu. At Dragonfly Kitchen, Farhan is doing a spectacular job with not only maintaining consistency in the products already available on the menu, he is also constantly surprising his customers with new, and even better delightful concoctions.

Now allow me to share my delectable experience over the past few days with Dragonfly Kitchen. Located on main I.I.Chundrigar Road, my lunchtime has been ruled entirely by it. Over the past few days, I have tried and loved the following:
- Tomato and Basil Soup: This was way better than what I make at home. Full of texture and taste, Farhan was generous with the cream, but not so much that it overpowered the basic flavor of the soup, just enough to make it hearty and filling. The soup was made with honest to goodness tomatoes, with just the right amount of seasoning and most importantly, lemon that rounds off the flavor notes of tomato soup to perfection. Fresh basil was the star of the soup for me. It came in between spoonfuls and gave it that authentic tomato and basil soup flavor.
- Toasted Chicken and Cheese Sandwich: Okay, listen to me. This is important. If you're going to order the tomato soup, you HAVE to order this sandwich to eat along. The tomatoey- tobascoey-chicken-cheesy goodness of this sandwich went perfectly with the soup, and kept me full till 8:30 p.m. I was in awe. Not even 2 eggs and two toasts have been able to do that for me.
Scrambled Eggs: If you're like me and running late to work and/or don't want to have a heavy breakfast and start feeling peckish around midday, and you also want soft, smooth, creamy and filling scrambled eggs with makhan toast (Yes, makhan toast) then you just send a message to Dragonfly Kitchen. This was such a difficult treat to share but my colleague was so in love with them that I had to share it. Paired with a cup of coffee, this is THE perfect breakfast.
Brownie: I know, I know. I have waxed eloquent about this goodie more than once but what can I say? I'm obsessed. I love good brownie and this is perfection.
Warm Brownie and Custard: If you want to go one step further for a foodgasm, may I suggest this particular dessert? This is warm, sweet custard, with warm, sweet brownie. What does that give you? A party in your mouth is what this gives you. I didn't think Farhan could do a better job than the brownie but he went and proved me wrong! Getting this dessert warm is imperative, because when you scoop up a mouthful of brownie and custard, then see the steam coming off of it and then you put it in your mouth, the custard just melts the brownie and turns it into a sinfully delicious concoction that makes your taste buds sing in joy. And pay attention when wolfing down the last two bites or so because that is when the brownie turns into brownie custard and is just flawlessly beautiful. You won't want to stop eating this one!
I honestly can't wait to see what Dragonfly Kitchen comes up with next! *Happy dance*
