They also own Asia Tent House and so can also do the food. I have more detailed rates for these people lying around somewhere but honestly don’t want to bother putting them up. I visited them a couple of days ago coz I’d stopped by to see The Court and they’re just down the road. The place literally stank! Imagine really bad musty carpet smell. The decor was barely passable, had absolutely no fresh flowers at all anywhere, just some corny artificial flower arrangements. Their carpets and wall coverings looked dirty. In order to get to the offices (and washrooms), you have to walk past all the crap that you don’t want your guests to see (cooking utensils, spare furniture, men working etc.). I popped open the door to one of the washrooms (yup, I’m the kind of person who checks these things - it’s important! I don’t want my guests to curse me when they have to go into dirty smelly bathrooms in their fanciest clothes!), and it looked very meh and smelled pretty bad. We went there at around 7 pm while the place was still being set up for the event that night. The furniture was in place and I came across a guy sweeping what seemed to be the previous night’s event’s kachra from the carpets, and he wasn’t doing a good job of it. Made me downright unhappy 
yaar, at least hall saaf suthra tou hona chahiay! Given the fact that it is actually not that much cheaper than The Court (which was amazing), I think it would be better to just stay away from this place.
