The Spicy Beef Melt (Rs. 350) did not live up to its name of being ‘spicy’, nevertheless, the flavour of the beef was acceptable and I liked the fact that it was moist. Personally I would’ve also preferred more cheese for it to be considered a ‘melt’ and I definitely would’ve loved if they weren’t so stingy with their filling. That wasn’t the worst part though when compared to the catastrophic salad placed haphazardly on my plate with a swirl of dressing!
