Off-Topic Approved.

Very good off-topic, I must say, although I remember there was a similar thread on xBhp, prior to the server crash.

thanks for the approval...

Nice topic

I will start off with the one to avoid-> Agarwal's on NH4. God you won't feel hungry for the entire day after eating from there. Too much soda.

In Hassan Suvarna Regency used to be good budget place. Not sure how it is now though. This on NH47.

In Puttur (S.K one) Hotel Hariprasad vegetable dosa is nice Forget the ambience though.

Can't remember most names Will try and update as and when I remember.



In Bengaluru:-

• Janata, Malleshwara 8th Cross, Kharabath
• Udupi Krishna Bhavan, Balepet, Sagu Masale Dose
• Ramakrishna, SC Road, Masala Dosa (they roast it right)
• Tamara, Race Course Road, South Indian snacks
• Ballal Residency, Residency Road, South Indian meals-tolerable

These are not the places you might want to visit with your wife/GF or your first date. Ambience be damned



In Hyderabad:-

• Ohri's Veg Kitchen, RajBhavan Road
• Chutneys, Banjara Hills-> South Indian thali is

In Pune:-
Radhika, Aundh-> Tawa Pulav used to be favourite during my student days Lousy waiters though. Don't know how its now.

Horn OK Please, FC Road-> 'North Indian' stuff used to be good.

There was a sweet stores near Sasken in Aundh, can't remember the name. Deepak's?? Moong Dal ka halwa was super & too damn filling.

lets spare this thread, reply thru PM

sarafa-indore

if u are ever in indore friends... do not ever ever ever miss sarafa. its not a single eatery but a whole street and every shop there is a milestone. the market is now a lot subdued still will feed u till 1 am. oh and it starts barely at 9:30pm
the legendary street in bang in the city centre and has seen indore turn from a village to a metro. its prehistoric. and fan-horde includes lata mangeshkar.
one myth that surrounds the place is that they never have any leftovers in the end. all the bhoot , djinns etc visit the eateries in human guise and keep stuffing till last loaf is finished. maybe the legend originated off the fact that by the end all the shops sell out completely.. everyday.... for past centuries.
take my word guys... its worthwhile to visit indore just for this place alone.

Bengaluru boyz, any review on Maiyyas?

^^^The one in 4th block?...I've been there a couple of times at noon but it's always so rushed up and you have to wait for more than 1/2 n hr.This makes me go hunting for another eatery......gotta have a look soon...

Yeah, one in 4th block. It's about 25kms from my place, so don't want to ride all the way if it isn't that good.

It's crowded even on weekdays?

since my coll is arnd 4-5kms from the hotel,never had a chance to go there during weekdays...but i've heard it's quite rushed up most of the times...
