THE OCCASION
We made many observations at the seventh edition of the ELLE Beauty Awards, held at Trident Bandra Kurla in October 2013: Dubai-based stand-up comedian Nitin Mirani is brave enough to take on a room packed with women, actor Sonam Kapoor can take on a stand-up comedian from the front row and even the most powerful names from the beauty industry have their pet products and brands (but we’re saving that for a tell-all). A selfie-wall? Check. Silly props? Check. Bottomless cocktails? Check. We covered all bases to make a memorable evening.
THE MENU
The menu did nothing to help waistlines, and temptations came in the form of succulent galouti kebabs, harissa-spiced chicken skewers with mango chutney, and jalapeno and cheddar-stuffed potato croquettes. Also spotted was a mighty selection of salads, pasta, maki rolls and khao suey. Try as one might, we couldn’t keep away from the ice cream sundaes.
