Found this review at Kochigallan’s friend site andrinemendez.com.Kool review.We need more reviews like this one.Simple & Precise.

“The Gateway Hotel(a.k.a Hotel Taj) finally offers something that’s quite impressive with its quality & pricing.It’s like they have strike the right balance with this new “Deli” outlet.Impressive yet simple interiors and seating with a classy ambience the brand can offer,the place is worth all the drools. I visited the place with my friend and was surprised to see the billing,compared to the things we ordered.Though the pastries are like puny in size,the food they serve has its standards.If you want to hangout with friends,there are of course better options in town. But if you want to take out your client/associate for a meeting,something official and less casual;Deli is the place to be.”:-http://www.andrinemendez.com/blog/

Now I really am out of words on where to start since this is like the first time I am finding a place with everything so balanced and nearly perfect. OK !,lets talk about what they serve first. The Menu seems to be having everything, that very fresh & new feel which makes us drool with confusion in where to begin.Smoothies,cocktails,deserts,…. there were too much a option for me to remember. And these things taste as good as it looks,trust me on that.

Now the ambiance,one word..”WOW !”.I must say,their expertise as interior people does comes in handy really here. The place is beautifully done be that the wallpapers, couches be even the window shields. LCD monitors with Xbox adds makes it more live and now they even have Live music 4 days a week if I am not mistaken. All in all,like I said you wouldn’t find a place made so beautiful nearly to perfection in the city.

I would rate 8/10 for making me feel on cloud9 and I am sure you would Love it too…”-andrinemendez.com

So the gallan goes out to find a place to woo a woman. MINUS 24 is the location for you. With the ambiance that would keep you at peace and the temperature closer to comfort this is indeed a perfect place.They usually play soft music.But when we talk too loud they turn the volume level up.Minus 24 is also at Convent junction Ernakulam.Perfect spot for couples minus the PDA(public display of affection).(talking about romance Im still single……girls are you listening?).I still don’t know why the name minus 24….May be the temperature??? May be the age factor???

LOCATION:At the town itself .You can easily spot MINUS 24 as soon as you enter the Aluva private bus stand road.

PRICE TAG.
100 bucks is more than enough for two.Well this Gallan ordered coffee and spent more than an hour there(They did’nt kick us out).Awesome place for birthday parties and other such informal meetings.So a PLUS point for the MINUS 24.
