5. The Darzi Cafe and Bar
The Darzi cafe and bar is based on a unique tailor shop theme, inspired by the streets of Saville Row in London. One wall is entirely covered with tabletop sewing machines, and another has cascading drawers. Some of the tables look like reels of thread, and there are sections where there are thick ropes that make a grid-like pattern to represent the web-like network that makeup fabric. During the day time, The Darzi Cafe and Bar doubles as a co-working space. Now, doesn’t that sound like an interesting workplace? They serve North Indian, Chinese and Continental Cuisines and also do delicious pizzas.
