Virat Kohli's Restaurant One8 Commune | Resto-bar in Pune

I recently had a privilege to dine in at one of the branches of one8 commune which is located at Bund Garden, Pune. Even though it was almost midnight the weekend crowd was very lively and happening. The fun atmosphere and excitement of the youngster could be seen reflected and complimented in the delicious food.

One8 Commune is a beautiful Restro bar. They have a vibrant, multi-cuisine, menu that caters to a global palate.

This cafe is known for it's relaxed, comforting vibe and ofcourse menu. One8 commune at Pune is a suave eatery serving Continental, Mexican, Thai, Chinese, Mediterranean, North-Indian and Asian cuisines. The menu is incredibly detailed and the starters comprise a whole lot of options including salads, baos, tempura, dimsum, cakes and more. 

One8 commune also offers all the classic cocktails and mocktails you can hope in a restro pub. The interior and decor are beautiful and fantastic. 

You will be reminded it as a Virat's restaurant by the big cricket score board on the wall. No wonder, it is one of the favorite restaurants of Cricket lovers and let's not forget about the food. The restaurant has some innovative menu and the food you have probably never heard of!

I loved how he listed he favorite meals in a section on the food menu. It has some interesting vegan food options - Super Food Salad, Avocado Tartar, Mushroom Googly Dimsums and Pearl Barley Risotto.

The desserts, especially the 5 Rivers Mud Cake And Oven Based Cheese Cake are simply delightful. Do try their Superfood Salad, Mushroom Googly Dimsums, Signature Hummus, The one8 Mezze, Communing Indian Way are way too yummy. 

 

One8 Commune has so much to offer. It is that one food trip you would want to remember.

1. Corpse Reviver

They have a bunch of cocktails and mocktails. I tried Corpse Reviver. It's a gin based cocktail with a tinge of orange in it.

This party platter serves with a bit of everything like Spanakopita, Falafel, Vegetarian Sishtouk, Sumac Rice Kofta along with Hummus and Pita.

This Indian platter also serves lot of Indian dishes like Soya Keema Puff, Tandoori Cottage Cheese, Bandel Mochar Chop, Soya Boti Kebab, along with Mint Chutney.

5. Five Rivers Mud Cake

For Dessert, go ahead with Mud Cake. It's a Decadent layered chocolate mud cake and chocolate mousse. This is my favorite dessert of all. It was the ideal end to the full meal.

This cozy restaurant has left the best impressions. The ambience is very welcoming. Hospitable hosts, delicious dishes, beautiful presentation, wide wine list, amazing cocktails, mocktails and wonderful desserts. I'm bowled over by the salads, fine food, drinks and dessert.
