just chill...
I remember going to the Big Chill four years back when it was located in East of Kailash in the south of Delhi. I had gone there with my friend, after one of my friends had strongly recommended it. I found the Big Chill as a quintessential Italian restaurant. At that time, I was a naïve with Italian delicacies, barring the Pizzas I had had, courtesy Domino’s. At that time, I had a plateful of Risotto and didn’t find it encouraging enough to travel to East of Kailash again, which is some 20 kms from my home!
Last evening, after a gap of four years, I again visited the Big Chill at its new location in the very up-market Khan Market, which is supposedly one of the most expensive markets of Asia, and the property prices are the steepest there in the whole of Delhi. But that’s another story. What encouraged me to visit Big Chill again was the reviews I had read in last four years, and very often I had heard many celebrities harping about the very popular joint. Moreover, I feel now I am more educated when it comes to Italian food, and I have received this learning from some very bad and good experiments with Italian food.

Chillin' Facts
I stumbled into The Big Chill close to 6 years ago by sheer fate - and a rumbling tummy. I had attended a Reception hosted at one of the Embassies and was served the usual vinegar (that they pass off as wine) and finger food (which is a ’’lah-dee-dah name for snacks but sometimes actually resembles baby fingers!) Now I am a good eater. No, I’m a great eater and some people could term me as a ’’foodie’’. So since I was hungry and it was pretty late, I just went in.
Its firstly the decor that hits you. Its absolutely fantastic.The husband - wife duo who own the place (and are now buddies as I am possibly their most frequent customer) have actually collected a lot of these during their stay in London and then ordered the rest from various poster places. Very very innovative idea and so fresh compared to the regular dimly lit punjabi restaurants that we see in Delhi.
The food: Oh Lordy! The food. Their tomato basil soup is to die for as are a lot of their pastas and pizzas. but the real winner is their desserts. People - TRUST ME - really - if you’re on a diet or need to refrain from sweet - don’t go. The chocolate squidgy cake (my all time favourite) is just divine! Some of my friends are more partial to the ice creams(the chocolate super fudge has been known to break many a diets) and cheese cakes.
I would be blatantly lying if I said that all was well at the Big Chill. The service is very slow in comparison to the throngs of people outside and inside.Although, there’s not much they can do about that.
They now have two branches. The original at East of Kailash and the second one at Khan Market. I personally prefer the EOK one as its closer to home and bigger. The Khan market outlet has limited dishes as they are fairly small.
They have since opened two more outlets in Khan Market so there is hope! All in all - go there - if for nothing else - then go there for the squidgy cake. TRUST ME. You’ll die fatter but oh so much happier! :-)

Best Italian Food and Affordable
Every time I go to Delhi this is one place I make sure I go to atleast once if not more. WIll they ever open in Mumbai !!
The new outlet has a very lively atmosphere and accomodates a lot more people as well.
Food suggestions are hard to give since everything is really good. It has a very authentic Italian feel. From the minestrone soup to the Brushetta to the pasta and pizza all of it is finger licking delicious.The shakes are fab as well.
For dessert I didn't like the blueberry cheese cake too much but the frozen yogurts are yum and low cal as well.
Tip: Ask for the baby cake..Its not on the menu but Ive never eaten a better dessert anywhere. It just melts in your mouth.
Damage: Well for one soup, three main courses and two desserts would be not more than Rs 350 per head
