On the 3rd floor of the building hosting adidas showroom and a Chinese restaurant, Great Wall, one could easily miss this place. Serves north Indian vegetarian and non-vegetarian food, a nice bar along side serves liquor.<br /><br />Food matches the good ambience, but limited mocktails didn't impress me. Since i went for a lunch, had to abstain from variety of cocktails. Worth a visit, though pricing is on a slightly higher side. Buffet lunch on weekdays is priced at 225 Rs (plus taxes).<br /><br />My recommendation: There were few people on a Sunday afternoon i went, unlike in other restaurants. Try out this place for nice ambience and good north Indian food on a lazy weekend.Sandeephttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10051492631822360008noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5438455677846652861.post-2725731241930365892008-06-10T04:39:00.000-07:002008-06-11T02:07:56.259-07:00Buffet lunch around Indiranagar<span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">The Village</span><br /><center><br /><iframe marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=100+Feet+Rd,+Indiranagar,+Bengaluru,+Bengaluru,+Karnataka,+India&sll=12.972324,77.641178&sspn=0.014846,0.018711&ie=UTF8&z=14&iwloc=addr&ll=12.982562,77.645359&output=embed&s=AARTsJouIKQ0I1xMzcGRpu8to3144_fwiw" frameborder="0" width="425" scrolling="no" height="350"></iframe><br /><small><a style="COLOR: #0000ff; TEXT-ALIGN: left" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=100+Feet+Rd,+Indiranagar,+Bengaluru,+Bengaluru,+Karnataka,+India&sll=12.972324,77.641178&sspn=0.014846,0.018711&ie=UTF8&z=14&iwloc=addr&ll=12.982562,77.645359&source=embed">View Larger Map</a></small></center><br /><br /><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">The Village</span><br /><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Location:</span> MSK Plaza, 3rd Floor, 100ft road, Indiranagar.<br />Landmark: Cafe coffee day<br />Phone: 080-41263331, 41263332<br /><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Cusine:</span> North Indian<br /><strong>Speciality: </strong>Lunch Buffet<br /><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Cost: </span>Rs.150/- per person for lunch buffet<br />Otherwise, > 500 for 2<br /><br />Located on the bustling street on 100ft road Indiranagar, The Village supposedly has the ambience of a village albeit with comfortable chairs and dining area.

Yes, it's a pretty small place on the first floor of a non-descript building in the otherwise busy street of TST, Kowloon… and yet always busy! Branto is definitely an-Indian-vegetarian-caught-in-HK's dream come true! Undoubtedly, the best pure veg restaurant in Hong Kong.

This area is one of the hot-spots of Hong Kong and always bustling with activity. It is right next to Central, where most of the offices are located. So, if you work in IFC or near by, chances are that you can walk down to this place.</p><p>The ambience from the inside is soothing… The interior is done very tastefully, in pucca Indian style!! There are paintings and sculptures of Indian men and women in ethnic Indian dresses all over the place… The icing on the cake is the live performances, with artists on Tabla and Harmonium, giving the place that much-needed ethnic touch!! </p><p><strong>My Recommendation: </strong>Come for a lunch Buffet. It will blow you over! The food is delicious, or I would say, as delicious as it gets in Hong Kong… right from the various chats (had bhel puri today), you can expect both North Indian and South Indian culinary in the buffet! So, if you missing Indian buffet in HK, Tandoor is the place to be! </p><p>Make sure you book a table in advance. If you get a place without prior booking, you should bless your stars that day! This is coz this place is always jam-packed, as most of the Indian people around (and there are many) like to come here for lunches during office hours, thanks to the proximity of the place to the various offices… </p>Novahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09297884866216563721noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5438455677846652861.post-31732317162166883772007-09-26T00:39:00.000-07:002007-09-26T01:40:52.685-07:00Roomali with a View<div align="center"><iframe marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=100+Feet+Rd,+Bangalore,+Bengaluru,+Karnataka+India&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=31.646818,59.238281&ie=UTF8&cd=3&geocode=0,13.018385,77.648516&ll=13.027889,77.65274&spn=0.009491,0.014462&z=14&om=1&output=embed&s=AARTsJqW4GejfJSECaAS81LFX7-xZReVww" frameborder="0" width="425" scrolling="no" height="350"></iframe><br /><small><a style="COLOR: #0000ff; TEXT-ALIGN: left" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=100+Feet+Rd,+Bangalore,+Bengaluru,+Karnataka+India&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=31.646818,59.238281&ie=UTF8&cd=3&geocode=0,13.018385,77.648516&ll=13.027889,77.65274&spn=0.009491,0.014462&z=14&om=1&source=embed">View Larger Map</a></small><br /><br /></div><div align="left"><strong>Location:</strong> 100 feet Road, Indira Nagar</div><div align="left"><strong>Cuisine:</strong> Rajasthani</div><div align="left"><strong>Speciality: </strong>Lunch Buffet</div><div align="left"><strong>Cost:</strong> >600 for 2</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">An interesting name...

It is owned by the BJN Group of hotels, who are famous for coming up with new theme-based restaurants.<br /><br />The Speciality of this Restaurant is that it takes you back in time, when travelling by train was a luxury, which only the Royalties could afford. You have the entire restaurant in the form of Train compartment of the 17th century. The Restaurant captains are dressed at Ticket Collectors.<br /><br />What makes the experience perfect are the old hindi movie songs picturised on trains, playing softly in the background. They gel so well with the rest of the ambience that you are drifted back in time!!<br /><br />The vegetarian dishes are particularly luscious! And the desserts to die for!<br /><br /><strong>My recommendation: </strong>You should visit this place on a special occasion, to have a quiet, romantic dinner, with your special someone! Spending a little extra wont hurt then ;) And yes, if you have a shaukeen-mizaz, then I would also recommend you to try their <em>Meetha Paan! </em>Ummmm.... :)Novahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09297884866216563721noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5438455677846652861.post-11080908141972427732007-08-08T09:44:00.000-07:002007-09-26T01:38:52.807-07:00Popsies<div align="center"><iframe marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?near=Jyothi+Nivas+College,+Bengaluru,+Karnataka+India&geocode=&q=popsies&f=l&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=12.947432,77.619524&spn=0.009495,0.014462&z=14&iwloc=A&om=1&cid=12935213,77615293,7195640294610235812&output=embed&s=AARTsJpP8XdJ-7Ec50nYN7gTOwOan2rRnA" frameborder="0" width="425" scrolling="no" height="350"></iframe><br /><small><a style="COLOR: #0000ff; TEXT-ALIGN: left" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?near=Jyothi+Nivas+College,+Bengaluru,+Karnataka+India&geocode=&q=popsies&f=l&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=12.947432,77.619524&spn=0.009495,0.014462&z=14&iwloc=A&om=1&cid=12935213,77615293,7195640294610235812&source=embed">View Larger Map</a></small><br /></div><div align="left"></div><div align="left"><br /><strong>Location</strong>: Koramangala 5th block, On the road parallel to JNC<br /><strong>Cuisine</strong>: Chinese<br /><strong>Speciality</strong>: American Choupsey<br /><strong>Cost</strong>: >100 for 2<br /><br />This is a small, elegant, ethnic place right in the heart of Koramangala. The place is not well known, and in a little diversion from the main road. But, its hard not to notice the shining Green board that says "Popsies" - Font in chinese dragon style ;)<br /><br />The ambience is sooo good... Not very flashy, but at the same time, very quiet - so much so that you would love having a quiet, private dinner there!<br /><br />My Recommendation: First time going out with someone!? I would say a great place to have that first special date ;) Would be really light on your pocket and whats more important is, u wud get to spend some time together :) </div>Novahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09297884866216563721noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5438455677846652861.post-76232432452606002142007-08-05T04:05:00.000-07:002007-09-26T01:35:12.013-07:00Lalitha Parathas<div align="center"><iframe marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=commercial+street,+bangalore&sll=12.975411,77.60592&sspn=0.009493,0.014462&ie=UTF8&ll=12.991762,77.612572&spn=0.009493,0.014462&z=14&iwloc=addr&om=1&output=embed&s=AARTsJor2yZ96CtlHyG1t0-HkOgARjw6Og" frameborder="0" width="425" scrolling="no" height="350"></iframe><br /><small><a style="COLOR: #0000ff; TEXT-ALIGN: left" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=commercial+street,+bangalore&sll=12.975411,77.60592&sspn=0.009493,0.014462&ie=UTF8&ll=12.991762,77.612572&spn=0.009493,0.014462&z=14&iwloc=addr&om=1&source=embed">View Larger Map</a></small><br /><br /></div><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"></span><div align="left"><br /><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Location: </span>Commercial Street<br /><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Cuisine: </span>North Indian<br /><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Speciality: </span>Makke di roti and Sarson da Saag, and ofc Parathas :)<br /><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Cost: </span>>50 for 2<br /><br />This is a small Parathas place in the start of Commercial street.

But, you go there on a weekday or a weekend, you are bound to stand there in waiting. This is a tesimony enough of the popularity of the restaurant amidst North-Indian-food-loving population.<br /><br />At all times, you will find owners sitting right there. Uncle taking care of the accounts, while aunty coming back and forth from the kitchen. This ensures that quality is never compromised on. You can always count on great punjabi food...<br /><br />My Recommendation: If ur office happens to be near MG Road and you are bored of office food daily, Queens is the perfect place to try out some great punjabi food, like <em>Makke di roti </em>and<em> Sarson da saag...</em> Ummm... Slurrp! :) </p>Novahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09297884866216563721noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5438455677846652861.post-66976772077831379612007-08-02T00:46:00.000-07:002007-08-02T00:49:37.951-07:00Why this blog!?I am a connoisseur of good food. I love visiting new food eat-outs and love experimenting with new cuisines (has been quite a disaster, I must tell u!!! :( )<br /><br />So, here I am. Since, I have been in Bangalore for quite some time and have frequently visited the eat-outs, I am now going to start reviewing Restaurants of Bangalore.<br /><br />This blog will tell you which cuisine is good where, which restaurant is a visual delight... and the likes!!<br /><br />Hope you like it :)<br /><br />Cheers<br />NovaNovahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09297884866216563721noreply@blogger.com7
