Restaurant Review: Incasa

Incasa is a pure vegetarian multi-cuisine restaurant. It has recently introduced some new dishes on the menu.
Decor
This restaurant does it with mirrors — a myriad of mirrors create optical effects and illuminate corners. The ceiling has mirrors in different shapes and even the columns are embellished with mirrors.
Food
Incasa specializes in fusion food based on Indian, Pan-Asian, Mexican and western dishes.The Lebanese Paneer Tikka is rich and creamy, with tahini marinade and olives giving it a Mediterranean touch. Other takes on the paneer tikka include Chimichurri Paneer Tikka with a green South American marinade and Paneer Angare with a spicy red sauce. They also have a Paneer Seekh Kebab. These go well with their Naan Bites – small versions of naan breads stuffed with cheese, olives and tomato. The Pizza Spoon is one of their house specials – the pizza dough is cut out in the shape of spoons and makes a feather-light appetizer. Another version of the pizza is the Cheese Phyllo which has a delicate fillo pastry crust. They even have a Naan Pizza. Those who love cheese must try the Cheese Melt which is a rich cheese stuffed bread roll. Those who like mushrooms can opt for Tandoori Mushroom, Stuffed Mushrooms or Mushroom Crepe. One of their popular soups is Mushroom Bisque, thick and creamy with bits of mushrooms. An unusual soup here is the Green Minestrone, taking inspiration from Genovese Minestrone Soup but with spinach and parsley broth instead of the classic pesto.
Among the mains, Paneer Arrabiata has cubes of paneer with a medium firm texture in an Italian-style spicy tomato sauce. Creamy British Piccalilli contains various vegetables, mustard, turmeric and a creamy sauce.
This is also one of the few restaurants in the city with a diet menu for the fitness and figure conscious patrons – the Lentil Shorba is a healthy soup, and the mains include Indian dishes like Soya Keema and Paneer Bhurji made in minimal oil, while-wheat Quesadillas, Stir-Fried Veggies and also vegetables with brown rice. The North Indian mains are also pretty good, and they have a good choice of stuffed parathas and naans as well as rice dishes like vegetarian biryanis and khichdis.
Plus and minus
Incasa has a pretty innovative menu with some creative presentation. The food is good though not outstanding.
