Cheers Coorg

Location : 80 feet Road, Indiranagar, Bangalore

Visited the place with my husband on Christmas for lunch. My hubby had been eyeing the place for quite some time!


We opted for the buffet. Before i get to the food, the ambience for me was simply superb. Wow is the word. If i ever think of opening my own restaurant it would be on similar lines :-) The menu was refreshingly different. But i was disappointed with the number of items on the spread. Very less!

I enjoyed the kadamputtu (rice balls) and akki roti with chicken curry. The rice balls were my first ever! The akki roti is different from the traditional ones that we get in Bangalore. They are puffed up and the texture is very thin.They resemble the Kerala Pathiris. The ghee rice tasted a little different. It was plain rice minus veggies. And the fact that the chicken curry was watery didnt help much either. Pepper chicken fry was yumm. The pandi curry had very strong flavours. The pork in the curry was soft when compared to the pork fry.
The spread also consisted of Mollagu bajji and a potato side dish.Then came the dessert. There was akki payasam and cocounut souffle and litchi souffle!For some reason, after we took a serving of the coconut souffle it was replaced by the litchi souffle. But i enjoyed both. Being a mallu i have tasted some lip smacking varieties of rice payasams and this one came nowhere close to the ones i have tasted. Was extremely watery. But i completely enjoyed the souffles. The cocunut souffle seemed a very innovative idea to me.
To sum it up, i would say the place is worth a visit. And yes, i simply loved the way they have done up the place. :-)
