Covah - The Cavern, Gurugram Offers A Visual Treat And Culinary Rituals Coming Alive In A Cave of Flavours

NDTV24-04-2025

Covah - The Cavern, in Sector 43, Gurgaon, is the newest name on everyone's lips- and Instagram feeds. With reels capturing neon-lit caveman projections and a colossal sculpted face watching over diners, it's hard to miss. But Covah is more than just a visual spectacle. It's a bold new dining concept that reimagines ancient communal feasting for the modern palate, blending Mediterranean and Asian traditions with theatrical flair.
From the moment you step in, the space envelops you in its earthy, immersive ambience. Think ancient limestone caves-textured walls, organic curves, and warm, ambient lighting. By day, it's a serene space for conversation and connection. By night, it transforms into an audio-visual feast with rhythmic projections of cavemen walking across the walls, accompanied by foot-thumping music. On my visit, the pulsing beats-modern yet rooted in classical drums-had diners swaying. Some even broke into impromptu dances. It felt less like a modern-day tribal celebration.
But Covah isn't all style and no substance. Its menu is a carefully curated fusion of Mediterranean and Asian flavours, designed around the shared plate philosophy-encouraging guests to connect over food, just as our ancestors once did. Ingredients are local, seasonal, and sustainably sourced, adding an eco-conscious layer to the experience.
My culinary journey began with a standout cocktail- the Wanderer's Cup, a matcha-infused foamy concoction served in a rustic, primitive vessel perched on a wooden block. Sweet with a dense rose finish, it perfectly echoed Covah's ancient-meets-modern ethos. The Whisky Sour, with a hint of orange zest, was another hit.
Then came the food, and it was outstanding. The Jalapenos Salmon Maki Rolls vanished from my plate within minutes- its crispy exterior and tender filling were addictive. Prawn Har Gaw was juicy and nuanced, while the Baked Scallops in coconut milk struck a perfect balance between creamy and delicate. For first-time scallop eaters, it's a welcoming introduction. Chicken Gyoza, with a crisp tuile wafer at the top, brought a satisfying crunch to the juicy filling. Dessert? A heavenly Tiramisu that lingered sweetly on the palate.
Covah might draw you in with its cave-like drama, but it's the cuisine that'll have you planning your next visit. Come for the spectacle, stay for the soulful food.

Turns out, back in eighth grade, Puka was sneaking around with a secret Instagram account. His mom, being the all-seeing parent she is, found it. But instead of just yelling at him, she did something way more savage: 'My mom, 8th-grade year, didn't know I had Instagram. My mom found my IG & changed it; she made it 'Puka is dead' to let me know I was in trouble.' Puka's mom changed his Instagram handle 💀 She literally renamed his account to tell him he was grounded. And the best part? He kept the username. Even now, as a rising NFL star, Puka still rolls with it, like a digital badge of childhood trauma and comedy. After the interview clip made the rounds on TikTok and Twitter/X, fans couldn't get enough. Comments poured in like: Honestly, the name makes way more sense now, and we kind of love him more for keeping it real. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Brass Idols - Handmade Brass Statues for Home & Gifting Luxeartisanship Buy Now Undo From being 'dead' on IG to killing it in the NFL Puka Nacua absolutely exploded in his rookie season with the Los Angeles Rams.

Shivangi Verma hits back after Govind Namdev reveals the story behind their viral photo: 'Buzurg satiya jaate hain'

Veteran actor , 70, recently broke his silence on the dating rumours involving his 31-year-old co-star Shivangi Verma. He revealed that their viral photo was part of a planned publicity strategy for their upcoming film Gaurishankar Goharganj Wale. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now However, it appears that is not at all pleased with this revelation. Govind Namdev clarifies the viral photo In an exclusive interview with ETimes, Namdev explained, 'When the film was being prepared, we had a discussion with the director, producer, and Shivangi about planning a strong publicity strategy. I agreed that it was necessary,' he said, adding that they had taken photos during morning workouts and shoot days. Namdev said that Shivangi herself had suggested the idea of projecting them as a romantic pair to generate buzz. 'Shivangi insisted that we should have a romantic pairing, that the images needed to convey a certain chemistry. I agreed, but also asked what kind of content she had in mind,' he explained. 'She said, 'There's a lot. Content matters most.' I thought, fine, let's do it.' However, he said things went south when she proceeded with tagging and posting content without informing him. 'That's where the misunderstanding started. People began speculating about us, and frankly, I didn't appreciate it. That's why I stopped talking to her,' he stated. Shivangi posts a scathing message on Instagram Shivangi didn't take these remarks lightly. On Wednesday evening, she took to her Instagram Stories and posted a scathing message in Hindi: 'Sahi kaha hai kisi ne, buzurg badhti umr mein satiya jaate hain...G***** Tired of too many ads? go ad free now N*****.' The comment, roughly translated to 'Old people lose their senses with age,' was seen as a direct dig at Namdev. The use of his initials left little doubt about whom she was referring to. 'I'm not here to prove anything,' says Namdev In the same interview, Namdev also addressed rumours suggesting that his marriage with wife Sudha Namdev had hit a rough patch due to the controversy. 'There were rumours that my household was affected and me and my wife were considering living separately. I didn't react then, and I don't react now. Everyone can see the truth,' he said. 'The more I raped, murdered, misbehaved onscreen, the more I got close to my family,' says popular villain Govind Namdev He added that the situation forced him to speak up, especially after people close to him expressed concern. 'People had begun feeling sorry for me — not just the audience, but even close friends and family. So yes, as a respected actor, I felt a responsibility to speak up. That's why I shared two posts initially — just to set the record straight.'
