A2B, Aadiyaar Ananada Bhavana BTM Bangalore

A2B BTM is located Opposite to Udupi Garden 16th Main BTM and is beside the Petol Bunk.
Looking at the name one thinks that A2B is a typical South Indian Restaurant,May be it was true some years back.
But now A2B is a typical Cosmopolitan Restaurant where in it tries to serve all types of Food. Located on 2 Floors The restaurant has exotic north delights to offer apart from the South Indian Dishes.

The Ambiance Gives you a Complete Indian Look wherein you see Marwadi’s[People from Rajasthan] , Kannadigas[People from Karnataka] serving typical North Indian delicacies like Chole Bhature.

The ground Floor of A2B serves all the Sweets that range from Kaju Katli’s to Gulab Jamuns and some of South Indian Dishes.

The First Floor is a Restaurant with beautiful colour combinations of the Chairs, Tables and the Dishes.A2B looks like a Good place to Hang Out especially for Couples.
But this is not the truth,especially when you see the location J.

What you find here is more of families who want a Outing or want to taste something other than usual Ghar Ka khana.

A2B is a self service Restaurant where in you need to buy some tokens beforehand, the Token number will be displayed on the LCD screen once your number appears,the LCD Screen is situated exactly on the forehead of Service Counter’s.

You can find Dishes Like Chole Bhature, Pav Bhaaji, Different Type of Dosas, Idli’s , paranthas etc. The food was quiet Decent, the pricing was Ok too, Service was avaerage considering the fact that there is huge crowd to eat at A2B on weekends.
Ambiance was super cool.Good Music. Location too is great considering the fact the BTM is the hub for all Software professionals.

Word Of Caution : If you enjoy crowds, explore A2B BTM on Weekends, orelse try visiting the place on Weekdays.

Sweets : Usually we have very expensive Sweets here in Bangalore, A2B is not an exception,expensive sweets but the Taste and Quality is decent.
I’ll Rate A2B ***1/2, not because of Food but because of other factors like Ambiance, Location and Pricing.

Malgudi Days ! ECity ! Bangalore

hmm,..... !
No this has got nothing to do with R.K Narayanan's Serial !
This is a chain of restaurants and they say that they are located in U.S too !
Located on the second left from Main Hosur Highway towards Satyam, This restaurant has lot to offer.
Awesome Ambiance.. The Ambiance actually makes you feel as if you are sitting in some thaeare and yes the Glasses around give a feel of huge space..but that is JHALAWA.. hehe
Good Place to hang out with Team's and when you want your project manager to shed some money especially when you dont have any other option around.
Food is quiet Average,the service is nice,the Crockery via which they serve excited me the most.
The beat I have seen around may Be gramin has some capabilities of the same Calliber.
Anyhow the food or the taste of food is primarily south Indian..more of Andhra Spices..the Non-Veg they serve ranges from Birds to prawns the Spices they used were a heavy dose for me.
North Indian dishes.. well Malgudi Days isn't the best place to check out them for.
Avg north Indian Food. On an Overall i'll rate Malgudi *** only because of their Service and ambiance.The price they charge don't equate with my Taste.May be for some it could be the Best Place.But the review I'am writing here is on my personal experience.
Good place for Team Hangouts but not a good place for Family Dinner.
Yes, a uniqueness I found in malgudi Days was the After meal Servings. i mean they have somehting unique to be served other than the usual saunf and mishri.
Overall.. not a bad place to try it once.

Papas Tiffin Koramangla Bangalore !

Yes the name is pretty much synonymous with someone who cares. In this case it is the food,

the Tiffin food !

Located near Indira nagar crossing.. Papas tiffin is one of very few north indian tiffin providers in Bangalore.

You taste it once, you will come again this is what the owner says, and yes he is true which i realised after cherishing their tiffin box.

The combo was excellent,taste superflous and the price nominal. I ordered a veg meal .. it turned out to be a heavy meal ;-).

Aloo ki sabzi was perfect northie type,Daal reminded me of maa and the Rajma Chawal reminded me of those Food Van's we have their in north which give us their special rajma chawal.

add to it the Kheer.........wah ... perfect i said !

And all these when compared to price left nothing to justify.

Verdict :5*

Advice: would surely suggest people in and around koramangla to have a try.

They do take orders for Non Veg meals, so all those interested in Chicken can ponder upon that option too..

Bobby Da Dhabha!

Bobby Da Dhabha Bangalore !
Loc: Beside Ulsoor Gurudwara, bangalore .

Perfect wen it comes to food..
Very Tasti Sabzi and Dal with a beautiful blend of masalas tadka and ghee.
You go any day and i bet anybody has to wait atleast 30 minutes to get a seat.
A perfect Dhabha lookalike.. i'l rather say it looks like a bhutiyaa haveli.
Below averae ambiance.
Huh..... but but the food is above any 5 star resti especially for all northies.
The Ma ki dali vith desi ghee ka tadka is like yummmmm..
Parantha's too are good,their recipe is like less spicy heavy taste and too much desi ghee!
The kheer is excellent it reminds you of mummy ke hath ki kheer...
And yes the heaviest dose is that doubled chaach ka glass...
perfect punjabi Overdose ........ loved that..

given a chance nobody should miss bobby da dhabha !
Money.. is peanuts when you compare the quality and quantity of food..
