We were invited here to sample some diet gourmet food design and curated by Chef himself for the members of Zehen - http://www.themanordelhi.com/zehen.phpZehen beautifully integrates wellness, social and lifestyle experiences. Speaking on the occasion, Chef Manish Mehrotra says “For the first time, we are introducing gourmet 'diet' food.

As chef Manish says “ we have tried to incorporate as much as organic(depending upon the availability) and simple yet delectable food which will satisfy your cravings.
Each member will be assessed by the team of expert doctors, physiotherapists, nutritionists and yoga instructorsand based on their assessment they have food which will not only helping them to remain fit but also shred those extra kilos(if they have chosen weight loss program). Food is served at dining rool and Zehen also has specially prepared tiffin boxes and bento boxes for those who will not be able to dine in daily, so that they don’t deviate from their diet program. We were here to sample dish from his Zehen menu as well as his regular menu. First was beetroot tikki which was simple and yet delicious. Uthapam pizza was light, fluffy and good deviation for those who crave for pizza. Star dish of the day was quinoa mutton biryani. The perfectly seasoned meat pieces in the aromatic biryani were amazing! We requested Chef to include it the main menu as well.Next we had zucchini spaghetti in fresh tomato and basil. This healthier grain free alternative is completely pasta Al dente! This light flavorful meal is delicious too!Chef Manish has brilliantly crafted a light menu from indian accent which is not only delicious but healthy too! Zehen at the Manor gives you a complete healthy experience and it’s menu spices up your cravings as well!!
