Pune Dining: Zicomo
As more high technology companies locate themselves in the Aundh-Baner-Hingewadi areas, the culinary scene in that part of Pune is beginning to show some signs of life! After Esca, which I visited recently, another new place opened its doors here: Zicomo on Baner Road. In fact, Esca and Zicomo are pretty similar places: small intimate dining place combined with a cool bar & lounge ambiance to draw in the younger crowd.
Contemporary chic interiors with mood lighting and multiple levels makes this place stand out. There wasn't much of a crowd during lunch time, but then were a little early - by Indian standards.
We ordered one of the interesting prawn appetizers - I think it was the Mauritian Creole Prawns followed by a Napolitana pizza. While the dishes were more inspired than original renditions of these recipes, I was happy with their overall execution.
The prawns were fresh and the flavor and textures worked for me. The pizza base was thin and crisp and the toppings ample. I am sure this will be a great place for a drink or two in the evening followed by a dinner with friends. Try this place if you are in this part of town.
Zicomo is located in the Focus building right on Baner Road near Balewadi phata. You can visit their web site here.
