I’ve devel­oped a lik­ing for long lazy Sun­day brunches lately. It’s a nice way to bond with friends and spend time over some­thing that I love and if you’ve read my blog on and off you won’t have any doubts : eat­ing, of course. I mean what can be bet­ter than 3–4 hours of conversation […]

The prob­lem with hav­ing a sis­ter who’s a chef is that her stan­dards are nat­u­rally high. And since she knows what these exotic dishes are sup­posed to taste like, she won’t set­tle for less. I am less dis­crim­i­nat­ing. I eat any­thing that looks and tastes rea­son­ably good and pro­nounce it as deli­cious! And some­times I haven’t […]

When I read this review on Ban­ga­lore Met­blogs, I couldn’t resist the temp­ta­tion to go and check out the food myself. So along with Charles & Deb­bie (who were game to visit again!), Aqua and hubby, my sis­ter and blog­ger Sathish K, we had a nice and lovely long meal at Saigon yes­ter­day evening. Warning: […]

So I had this strange expe­ri­ence yes­ter­day. Just as I was cut­ting my birth­day cake with a bunch of friends at Infinitea (the place on Cun­ning­ham Road), when the man­ager runs up and says that we can’t eat out­side food in the restau­rant. But it’s birth­day cake, we point out. No, he said adamantly, we […]

Okay, now let me con­fess that I’m not very big on choco­late or sweets. But that cer­tainly didn’t stop me from try­ing this dessert place called Choco­late Painted Plat­ters. I took the oppor­tu­nity to ogle at the dif­fer­ent shapes & sizes. And take pic­tures. There is a poster with some cute choco­late related quotes, don’t […]

We met on Sat­ur­day after­noon at Infinitea. There was Usha, Prabhu, Ravi and The­jesh (an ex-author and reader now :). Rajesh who blogs here, dropped in and hope­fully will be a part of the team soon. He’s also writ­ten a really nice post here about the meet­ing and about Infinitea so you can fol­low this […]

Brunches can prove to be rather harm­ful to your pock­ets. But just hang­ing out at a nice place, enjoy­ing the breezy and cool Ban­ga­lore weather in the com­pany of fam­ily and friends over a long, leisurely lunch is not an alto­gether unpleas­ant way to spend a Sun­day after­noon either. I would rec­om­mend it once in […]

Sun­day after­noon. They call it a brunch but things start cook­ing up only after 1 pm. The place gets mighty crowded and a large pop­u­la­tion of Bangalore’s expat crowd con­verges here so be pre­pared to feel like you’re in another coun­try or some­thing. Other than that, I couldn’t find much wrong with the Leela brunch […]
