Hotel Dwaraka is one of the oldest eating joints in South Bangalore..Heared it was in Hanumanthanagar earlier.. not in NR Colony.Visited the place in one rainy evening along with a friend. It wasworth a visit. The masala dosa was crispy, the Khali dosa (the besthere) was soft and mushy as usual, the avarekalu khara bath wasamazing!! And all this with the tasty coconut chutney. The verythought of

Went to this great place with a couple of friends. First of all the theme took me by surprise, a British Ruled India platform, the train cabinet was amazing, the details, the silverware, the outfits of the captain simply fitted.My little niece is very fond of this place, she loves the bread sticks with the cheese dips that comes in the beginning. Its so soothing :)We had the kakori kabab and

The best place for Chinese in and around Kathriguppe Circle, Banashankari, a relatively restaurant-deficient region of Bangalore is Beijing Bites. Apart from Chinese, specialty tag, they also serve thai cusine. I hav no idea about Thai food here, its mostly the Chinese stuff which I have tried.The Chinese food is quite good, my favorites include- American Chopsuey(Crispy), Lung Fung Soup, Golden

Heard a lot about this place from acquaintances, It is one of the oldest eat joint in Bangalore.It’s a very small place, one needs to pay for whatever they want to eat at the counter which is almost on the footpath, sneak in and place the order.The idlies and the vadas are dipped in the chutney…. Believe me, many people, like me, go for the second and the third servings of chutney. To avoid the

Silver Metro is a theme based restaurant inspired by a Metro train station. Its located in the 3rd Floor of Total mall in madiwala, near madiwala police station.

Hyd Mahal located on Church street serves Hyderabadi and North indian food. It is located alongside the RR restaurant. (its part of the famous RR Andhra restarunt, i hope)The food is quite tasty, but the best thing about this place is their biryani. Though its not the perfect Hyderabadi biriyani, i'll say its the closest to the Original Nawabi Biriyanis served in Hyderabad. A perfect blend of

One of the best places to go for North West Frontier Cuisine in Bangalore is Samarkand. They serve some awsome foodhere. They are very cool right from from attending to phone bookings to allotment of tables, service, food, ambience etc. etc. Feel like going to the place again and again, the whole team takes care of you very well, from entrace(hostess) to the waiters.

If u are fed up with all those masala doasa and filter kapis from dharsinis and sagars in Bangalore, still have an appetite to taste the traditional karanataka cuisines, then try 'Halli Thindi'.This is a small food joint in near bull temple, basavangudi. They serve all the rural flavours of karnataka : ragi-roti, mangalore bajji, godambi dosa, mangalore idly, sukkina unde, sajjappa.. sound weird!

Although the nights are still cold in Bangalore, sunny days are coming soon, indicates the bright and sultry late afternoons. I feel this is the apt time to acknowledge that im a dead slave :).. yes really im a DEAD SLAVE.. sounds like a oxymoron? death means independence and how can be one a dead slave.. oh..oh.. ok. lets just stop it ter..

The one great place for chicken lovers is kebab magic. I have been to their east end branch, but my frequent is the one in RV road opp to vijaya college. The place is most famous for takeaways, i used to find the ppl standing in Q's on Friday/Saturdays nights to takeaway their fav. rolls. grill chickens and kebabs. This is a fast food chain run by some mallu Uncle, who claims they specialise in

Madiwala area in Bangalore is bachelor heaven, one can find lot of small, cheap, tasty, diverse - all Tamil, kerala, andhra, bengali, orissa, punjabi - eateries there. Mostly every thing is flocked with the IT bachelors.One of those for keralite speciality cuisine is Claypot - i still wonder why most of the mallu restaurants have a stylish english names in contrast to tamil or andhra eateries

Do you live in the highrised apartments of JP nagar 'n'th phases, you feel sick to drive along the ring roads to find a cool eatery, do you get frustrated with the traffic to cut across the city and reach MG road / residency road for a pleasant drink/dinner.. here is the best choice INCHARA.Of course this is a very popular multi-cuisine restaurant in JP nagar, still there are people who dont know

If you are with a good company, some were near MG road, residency road.. thinking of having a lovely dinner.. the best choice is Copper Chimney - the one in the fifth floor in the Bangalore Central Shopping Complex.The best part that strikes you once u enter this place is the ambiance.. If u are lucky enough to get a place by the glass windows, facing the MG residency road stretch.. i bet u,

If u long for real north karnataka veg food and jowar rotis, the best place in south banalore is Kamat - bugle rock. They do serve north indian and chinese, but north karanataka food is at its best here. The whole second floor is reserved for that. There is a stage where classical music concers are held, which can accomadate a decent 30+ ppl, mostly who waits for the turns to get a table. :)Jowar

But still perfect dosa's need a hunting. :)Dosa corner - a small food joint in Jayanagar 3rd block is a cool place to have perfect Dosas. Its really a
