A Midnight mania!
I was a regular to this place 5 years back. Having our office in Infantry Road and working late night to connect with the US office, it was an obvious choice.
The meal served in office canteen at 9.00 pm used to be awful!! So we used to frequent to Empire, just walking distance from the office, arround 1.00 or 1.30. Still that place is packed.
You will get a typical mix of crowd at this hour.
You get IT professionals like us, you get pub hoppers having some filling in the stomach. Even you get whores from the Brigade Road dance bars came down with their hooked ones having food on the first floor cabins.
The service is super fast!! Have a list of name in the menu that sounds like Indian Chinese, but served with Curry Patta! Only in one item tehy spared with the Curry Patta, that is ice-cream!!
Though the red gravey is with full of color, they are one of the best place in Bangalore for budget non-veg meal.
Another thing to mention. They have Vertical Rotisserie!!
You will see that is placed next to the entrance, roasting a whole leg of lamb. This vertical rotisserie is typical to Central Asian cuisine, like the greek "Gyros" or middle eastern "Shawarma".
The buzzing crowd infront of the restaurant, the smell of roasted meat, the occational raving of a super charged Toyota Supra on the main road, all togather Empire at midnight is a different world, a different experience.
