Diners are characterized by a wide range of foods, mostly American, a casual atmosphere, a counter, and late operating hours.
Be it the cuisine, the interiors or the ambience, The International Diner brings a contemporary twist to the classic diner, essentially combining the best of both worlds: yesteryear’s charm and modern pizzazz. While scrumptious eggs are being cooked in the live kitchen, the chic lounge bar offers beer in tubes to kill the summer heat and some great mixed drinks.
The menu truly embodies the global spirit that is characteristic of The International Diner. American classics share space with Mediterranean and European preparations, as well as Indian culinary delights. The breakfast specials range from the quintessential English breakfast and eggs with an assortment of sides to Arabian pancakes and sharaabi parathas.
When we arrive the place feels very laid back. There is no pressure and i was recommended the classic Bunta drink that was marvelously refreshing on a sweltering summer’s day.
As our table orders the Meze Platter, Mushroom duplex as starters and in main course I get the spinach pancakes with Dajaj Meshwi for my companion. Wait staff is friendly and was very helpful in guiding us. The food comes in good time. The meat is lean and well cooked. Nothing too flashy but good solid food.
We end this with the Chocolate lava served with ice cream. This gives it the one extra star and not to forget blueberry cheese cake.
Whether it’s breakfast on the way to work, a fortifying snack in the middle of a shopping spree or just a fun evening with friends, throw calories to the wind and check out The International Diner.
From its humble beginnings as a horse-drawn wagon, to its steel, streamlined appearance, the subsequent Greek overtones in its cuisine and decor, the diner has witnessed countless transformations in the last century. And now, here is one of the best coming alive in a fresh, new avatar, The International Diner, well situated in the swanky neighborhood of GK I, M Block Market.
