With banging food and several Instagramable corners, this Ahmedabad spot is totally Cosmo-approved

Let’s be real—how many times have we said “Let’s plan something soon” in the girls group chat, only for it to die a slow, ghosted death between deadlines, existential dread, and the 100th (annoying) reminder from management about performance targets? Well, the time has come to get that plan out of the group chat. This is your sign to hit ‘send’ on that finally happening plan and gather the girl gang for a night out that’s high on flavour and low on stress.

For all you Ahmedabad folks looking for a spot that hits just right—Laurel by Flavors is serving a fresh, bold, and “hella” cool vibe in its new avatar. Think: a perfect setting to spill the tea, dive into deep chats (or delulu brain rot), and feast like you mean it. First off, it’s giving aesthetic overload. With chic interiors, moody lighting, and backdrops that’ll make your IG grid look like something out of a magazine editorial, Laurel is basically begging to be on your list of hangout venues. But wait, it’s not just a pretty face—the food’s a whole global experience.

Their menu is what foodie dreams are made of: fusion dishes that mix the best of everywhere. We’re talking pizzas with legit San Marzano tomatoes and Caputo flour straight from Italy, salads with pomelo from Thailand, and a chef’s kiss Lao Gan Ma chilli sauce you’ll want to gatekeep (but won’t, because we all know food this good deserves its due recognition). Every dish is thoughtfully put together, celebrating bold flavours, premium ingredients, and a little bit of spice, just like your friend group. And if your crew includes that one wellness warrior (we all have one), Laurel's got you. With plant-based options, clean mocktails, and a whole vibe that balances indulgence with intention, nobody stands a chance of feeling left out here. “We stay in tune with what modern diners want,” shares Paresh Desai, Founder of Laurel. “That means wellness-focused choices, responsibly sourced ingredients, and a menu that evolves with our guests.”

Even the design plays its part—with versatile spaces that work for intimate catch-ups, content shoots, or full-blown celebrations—so you don’t need a Plan B for post-dinner plans. In short? Laurel isn’t just another restaurant—it’s a whole mood. Whether you're toasting to new jobs, broken situationships, or just the joy of making it through a tough week, this is the kind of place that gets it. So gather the squad, book that table, and make those group chat promises come true. Your next girls' night out just found its forever home at Laurel.
