Sabka Club— A Place for Everyone

There’s a section where the opulence of a typical zamindar’s house is represented through the ornate-looking wrought iron chairs placed around a faux fountain. It captures the mood of a bygone era. An extension of this section has used sports chandeliers, ornamented lampshades, a gigantic lotus painting covering a wall, rich upholstery with floral motifs, and white pillars adding to the colonial feel. Black and white checkered tiled flooring, white and grey colours, vibrantly rich velvet curtains, wooden furniture with  teak finish, unfinished walls and pink lotuses—have all combined to create an interior that boasts of a mix of conventional and unique décor elements.

This newest F&B outlet in town is perched atop Haute Street Corporate Park— on the Sixth Floor at 86A, Topsia Road, Kolkata. Spread across 7000 sq. ft. area with a seating capacity of over 200, Sabka Club has innovatively explored its square foot area to create a multi-mood environment. Its multi-cuisine spread adds to its attraction.

At Sabka Club (SKC), the customer is spoilt for choice! Sab ke liye sab ka manpasand khana seems to be their motto—something for everyone. Thus the Sabka Club menu includes a delectable variety of soups, salads, snacks, pasta, burgers, pizzas, momos, select Chinese dishes, and their ‘Happy Endings’ or desserts. From SKC’s ‘Kamaal ke Munchies’, the must-haves include Jalapeno Balls with cheese served with sriracha mayo and salsa dip; American Fries—batter-fried potato fingers, which are baked, and Apna Special Nacho—SKC’s take on nachos using chef's secret sauces.

Try their Macaroni Pasta Salad, Kolkata Style Fish Finger(Betki), Mushroom and Cheddar Bruschetta, Crispy Sesame Honey Chilli Fries, Chilli chicken Kolkata style, Bharwan Aloo, Classic Chicken Burger, Slice Chicken in Lemon Garlic Sauce with Chilli Garlic Noodles—but this is not the complete menu, of course! You ought to pay a visit to explore the culinary delights on offer! I sampled a variety–Ajwaini Fish Tikka, Pan Fried Momos, Stuffed Grilled Chicken, Cheesy-dar Garlic Bread and the one which actually satisfied my taste bud was the Chicken Spring Rolls! It was perfectly done—crispy with generous chicken filling. The Cheesy-dar Garlic Bread lacked the ‘garlic’ flavour. Ajwaini Fish Tikka, Pan Fried Momos came overtly spiced with masalas and sauces respectively. I loved the Stuffed Grilled Chicken with its green peas and cheese stuffing!

With good food, Sabka Club has laid out a variety of drinks to complement the food platters. The ‘Sabka Paisa Wasool’ selection of drinks comes at affordable prices. It has some appetizing drinks, among which we are highlighting a few. But this place has a lot more to offer apart from the mentioned ones. You can select from a wide range of innovative drinks like Velvety Red Sangria with a popsicle, Sub ka Ginger Orange Old Fashioned (Adrak Wali), Blueberry and Basil Mojito, Burnt Orange Ginger Basil Mojito, Pineapple Tandoori Smoked Margarita, Virgin Aam Panna Gondhoraj Mojito, Aampanna and Gondhoraj Margarita Martini A-La-SKC, Blue Lychee Margarita. All these amazingly curated drinks will surely excite your senses. I relished sipping on the mocktail— Virgin Aampanna Gondhoraj Mojito!

What makes Sabka Club unique is its spacious interiors, where attention to comfort has been given priority. The restaurant has an impressive collection of a few antique items, viz. the gramophone, radio, trophies, and a pendulum clock, enhancing its old world charm!
