Let us be honest, fathers do not really get too much attention the rest of the year. But on Father’s Day, there is so much more you could do than taking him out for a tandoori meal or a pint at the local watering hole. It is best to up the ante on his special day and treat him to the creative feasts that include his favourite nibbles and the choicest selection of spirits. In fact, restaurants in the Capital are going all out to raise a toast to daddy-cool and stuff him with the scrumptious goodies too. So, ditch all pedestrian plans for Father’s Day and pamper him with stellar food-themed ideas.
