Good
Mouth-Watering!
This one is a road side shop offering mouth watering chaats – pani puri, dahi puri, paapdi chaat, aloo chaat etc..
One needs to pay and stand in the queue to get their orders. Each chaat costs Rs.10
My personal favorite here is the paapdi haat and the pani puri. The puris are too huge so, people with smaller mouths would surely find it difficult to put gulp. I have seen a few asking him to select the smaller puris and customize their chaat.
He claims this is one of the authentic Calcutta style pani puri served in Bangalore
Just another good chaat place in jayanagar for the chaat lovers!

Best Filter Coffee in Bangalore
I have had the dosa, akki rotti, ragi rotti and bele obbattu here and always loved it. Especially the bele obbattu which is made fresh, served hot with ghee!
For whatever reasons, I had never sipped the coffee here. I still wonder why???!!!
Being voted as the best coffee makers in Bangalore in the Times Dosa and Coffee Contest, I dint want to miss it this time.
Last week, headed there straight after office and tried only coffee!!! Wow!! What an aroma it was. It was strong filter coffee - Its flavor hits your face and you would completely love the aroma…. It costs you Rs.7 per coffee
We, as Bangaloreans feel the coffee should be the last thing we should have as we love the flavor and the taste and we want that to remain in our taste buds for a long time. For that effect, filter coffee @ Ganesh Darshan is a must try!!
I am gonna go there again… may be this evening!! Or should I go now?? Ah.. well, cant wait any longer :)

Coffee Fest 08
Coffee Fest was happening across Bangalore for 2 weeks now and I somehow managed for the same on the last day during the last few hours.
The fest had:
Brew-a-Cuppa, where we were taught how to make the right blend of coffee and get certified!
Bean-o-Kraft, where one could get creative and make something using beans and paints and paper and whatever they liked!!
Battle of the Brew, where one could invent their own signature Brew!!!
I got certified for Brew-a-Cuppa; she taught me how to make the decoction using the 2 kinds of filters they had. We opted for the Malabar Monsoon. It was a light bodied coffee containing 100% Arabica having unique taste of its own – ideally for black coffee!
Wish I had opted for the Dark Forest. I would have enjoyed the flavor and the aroma more as this is more of my type.
There were other kinds of coffee for offer: Dark Forest – This one is exclusively for coffee lovers, a 100% pure strong coffee. Arabicaah – 100% pure filter coffee, Perfect – A perfect blend of pure coffee and chicory in a 80-20 ration, Charge – Strong coffee with extra dose of 35% chicory for those who need a re-charge
They’ve also introduced a new flavor called Morning Java – It has a blend of beans from Cerrado in Brazil nad Chikamagalur in Karnataka. It’s a full bodied brew with light chocolate and caramel tones.
Hmmmm… this one sounds good!! May be I’ll buy this and try it out myself

Losing the charm…
There used to be a time when I frequented Pai Viceroy with family and friends. Loved everything there..
My recent visit disappointed me. The kashmiri pulao did not taste good and it was too oily. The roti’s were soft and fluffy but, the gravies were overloaded with oil.
But, there’s good news!! The paneer sauté just tastes the same :) don’t know how they make it so delicious and I was wondering, why aren’t they maintaining the same consistency with other rice and gravies. The mocktails are a sure winner and it made my day!!
They also serve the breakfast buffet and the lunch buffet. Did try their lunch buffet which was basically thai cuisine on the day I went and it was passable.
An ok place to for dinner / lunch if you around jayanagar and also, if all the other restaurants are crowded

Dosa Anytime...
This place is voted for making 3rd best dosa in Bangalore in the recent Times Dosa and Coffee Contest. My friend and I ventured to figure out the same…
The masala dosa is served with a sealed pack of butter. So, people who are diet conscious can avoid this dollop of butter on the already greasy dosa. Chutney was good but, the sambhar was too watery.. Dosa tasted good, though I like the dosas from so many other places in Bangalore. The coffee served was passable. It was very light and less aromatic.
They have a service hall on the 1st floor and is open most of the time, though the board near the stair entrance says “Service Hall Closed”. They also serve Chinese and North Indian cuisine food in addition to chaats in the evenings
They also serve the mangalore kadubu (kind of idly in the shape of a glass cooked with the jackfruit leaf covered on it) for breakfast. This has a different flavour and tastes good!
If possible try and avaoid going during the peak hours as it gets madly crowded. If you are going on a sunday for breakfast, make sure you are there early or be ready to wait for a while to be seated
