If you are a ‘Mad’ (magazine) reader, you would love everything that is out of the ordinary, an environment away from the run-of-the-mill and almost irreverent but everything with a sense of humour, dignity and honour.
And if you like to translate all those unusual tastes and styles, Plan B Lounge is for you.
This is a Restaurant, just opened at 115 Parnell Road in Parnell, Auckland City could shock you at first sight as a funky, little cubby hole.
Eccentricity and fun
“But you will soon find out that Plan B Lounge also has a healthy dose of eccentricity and fun. Everything here will be different and unique in taste and style,” says Ganesh Chowdary Pulapa, who owns the Restaurant.’
An IT graduate from Auckland, Ganesh has experience in business transformation solutions for large enterprises and other areas of commercialisation. He decided to launch into restaurant business and be unique.
“Plan B Lounge is a small creative venture (opened in October 2020) for young people (for everyone, in fact) trying to get Indian Street Food, not available in formal Indian restaurants. With picnic tables lined up and hundreds of twinkling lights, this restaurant makes your dining experience cozy and truly off-the-wall moment,” he said.
Traditional and innovative
Plan B Lounge features a bicycle fixed to the wall; this place has a menu that tells you why it will become a favourite of those who want to taste authenticity.
“As well as our Craft Beer Bar and wide range of wines, you can get some tasty morsels to nibble with your pre-dinner tipple. A traditional train station snack, the Indian cocktail samosa is an authentic taste of Indian life! Alternatively, play it safe with a selection of crunchy onion samosas. For mains, chicken-lovers are in for a treat! Chicken Southern-style, Bangala chicken and Hyderabad fried chicken all wrestle for your attention. You can also have lamb wild style, seafood specials and paneer delicacies to sample. And let us not forget Indo-Chinese! There really is something for everyone at this groovy spot,” Ganesh said.
Some crazy stuff too
Plan B Lounge will offer something even crazier- here is a sample – Rum Gulab Jamun, Vodka Pani Puri and Venison Biryani, all of which will be available from Tuesday, December 1, 2020.
The Restaurant is open from 11 am to 11 pm from Tuesday to Sunday for dine-in, takeaways and deliveries. Monday is weekly holiday.
