The first thing you must know before you decide to go to Turquoise Cottage is that they serve their music loud. The speciality of Turquoise Cottage is their karaoke nights, so if you enjoy singing, make sure you attend one of these nights. But we must warn you, these sessions can be highly addictive. The wooden furniture and rock n’ roll décor makes this place a music lover’s nest. Their in house DJ is diverse in his offerings, with house, rock and retro music being played on different nights. Turquoise cottage (or TC, as it is popularly called) also has live music nights where upcoming/established bands perform. In terms of food, they offer Chinese and Thai cuisine. The stars of the menu are the Singapore chilli prawns, corn fritters and the
Thai curry. The prices of their mains range from Rs. 300–Rs. 450, so heading there on an empty stomach could make your wallet considerably lighter. If you want to save some money, start your party early and head there during the happy hours (from noon to 8:30 pm). There’s no saying what a night at TC will lead to: a fun session on the dance floor, croaking into a karoke mike, or even performing on stage. However, on the downside, there are some nights when the place is so crowded that making your way around can be a nightmare. While the original outlet is in Vasant Vihar, they have another branch in Gurgaon which carries forward their legacy of good music. 47, Basant Lok, Priya Cinema Complex, Vasant Vihar, New Delhi (Rs. 900)
