SIZZLING SUCCESS

UPPER CRUST

-

From battling police complaints for serving chicken in what was predominan­tly a vegetarian neighbourh­ood 19 years ago to introducin­g Ahmedabad to sizzlers, Upper Crust counts itself among the city’s iconic restaurant­s that has been dishing out rolls, frankies, sizzlers and desserts for almost two decades now. Owners Lester and Monisha Dsouza have been creative with the menu, designing in-house sauces, offbeat combinatio­n and giving their sizzlers quirky names like Jane Fonda or Pot Pourri which combines Malaysian and pan-Asian fare.

Don’t go here expecting authentic world food; it’s all inspired and tweaked to the local palate. So, you can find vegetarian steaks made with potatoes and cottage cheese or their very own Lasagna Rosti. They don’t follow a rulebook while designing their recipes; they come up with an exciting name and then get creative with the recipes to make a dish that befitting the name.
