On Gau­tam Ghosh’s sug­ges­tion, decided to try out a Bong food joint called Victoria’s Cor­ner on Sat­ur­day evening.

Along with a few friends who were game enough to join me on a culi­nary adven­ture in West Ben­gal cui­sine, we reached the place at about 10.30 pm. It was obvi­ously the wrong time, since they were nearly clos­ing. So though tasty, both the prawn malai curry and the doi-mach (fish prepa­ra­tion in curd) they served were a lit­tle cold.

The sec­ond round of doi-mach how­ever was pip­ing hot and we enjoyed it much more. There were some exotic sound­ing veg­etable prepa­ra­tions with karela and potol, but that’s for the sec­ond round visit!

If you have a yen for Ben­galee food (that’s how they spell it on their sign board!), I’d sug­gest you try this no frills place near Domino’s on 100ft Road, Indiri­na­gar. It’s in a cor­ner (hah!) and you could eas­ily miss it, so be very atten­tive! (Very cost effec­tive too). Just go early. They close by about 10.30 pm.

Thanks, Gau­tam! If any of you have any sug­ges­tions or rec­om­men­da­tions for good culi­nary adven­tures, you know where to park them :)
