Gilly’s, Electronic City

Last friday we paid a visit to Gilly’s Restobar for dinner. Having never been to Koramalagala Gilly’s, I was looking forward to this one near my house.

We had made a reservation, which seemed unnecessary later on since the place had plenty of vacant tables. There was a minimal cover charge, which made me wonder why it was there at all 🙂

Bazaar@Zone By The Park, Electronic City

Over the last weekend, we went out to Bazaar for dinner. It is one of the restaurants in Zone By The Park and serves North & South Indian, Oriental and Continental cuisines. I usually don’t hope much from multi-cuisine places since they fail to do justice to any of the cuisines. But this one turned out to be an excellent surprise!

The restaurant is designed to look like a bazaar(market). There are shelves filled with pulses, spices, utensils and myriad other items. There’s an auto kept at the entrance which adds to the whole market scene.

Cirkus, HSR Layout

‘Cirkus’ is one of the newest watering holes in HSR Layout. The place is spread across multiple floors and offers great food and booze with pretty good service. Interiors are simple with lot of open space, perfect lighting and some quirky wall posters.

The menu has a little bit of everything: Indian, Thai, Chinese, Pizzas, Burgers etc. The cocktail menu too offers a good amount of choices.

Hungry Lee, BTM

A couple of days back while looking for place to order dinner from, we came across this place called ‘Hungry Lee‘ on Swiggy. The name was amusing and their menu had many tempting dishes, so both of us decided to try it out.

They have something called “Create your hungry bowl”, wherein you can choose noodles/rice, a protein and a sauce. We chose to get a portion of spicy creamy tofu dimsums, tofu hungry bowl in black bean sauce with stir fried noodles and Burmese khow suey.

Hoot, Sarjapur Road

I had been frequently working Hoot into our weekend conversations of “where do we go for lunch today?”. Mr. H finally gave in this weekend, and we went there for a late lunch 🙂

Hoot is a massive microbrewery located on Sarjapur Road and is a new addition to the rapidly expanding list of microbreweries in the city. It is spread over a whopping 40000 sq ft and resembles a warehouse or garage from outside.

I had seen some beautiful pictures of its striking ambiance on different websites and blogs, and was looking forward to visiting it.

Aroi, Sarjapur Road

Aroi means delicious in Thai, and this place truly lives up to its name. We decided to visit it for lunch over the weekend, climbed four flights of stairs(totally worth it!), and had some amazing food.

The place looks simple yet beautiful and overlooks Kaikondrahalli lake near Sarjapur Road. They have plenty of seating and we decided to take a table outside that had a nice view of the lake.

Sizzling Monk, HSR

It’s hard to reach a consensus at home when everyone wants to have something different for dinner 😀 Yesterday night, “Sizzling Monk” came to our rescue; it had something to please everyone’s tastbuds. The place has recently opened(not more than a week old I suppose) and boasts of an interesting menu which has everything from Chinese, pizza, pasta to sizzlers, shakes etc.

It’s good to see HSR Layout rapidly evolving as a foodie’s delight. I always used to complain about it not having enough places that serve good Chinese food, but it’s not the case anymore, thanks to places like Sizzling Monk. Before entering here, I also spotted a ‘Cream & Fudge’ outlet right next to it and decided to have desserts there post dinner 😀

Devil goes veg, HSR Layout

Mr. H had been eyeing this place since its inception. He used to be quite fond of 49 Parantha Gali (which was located here), and was heartbroken when it closed its doors 😀 Soon after, this new place with a quirky name and interesting menu opened at the same location. There are plenty of interesting and tempting things to choose from, and everything from North Indian to Chinese to Continental and much more.

Singkong, UB City

It had been a while since we went to UB  City for food. Over the weekend, everyone agreed for Chinese/Thai and I decided to tick off another place on my list 🙂 And we headed to Singkong.

It is located in the beautiful UB City piazza and we decided to sit out, since it was not hot and we could also have a view of the food fest which was going on there.

The gentlemen ordered beers and ladies sangrias. For appetizer, hubby thought popiah looked interesting. Service was good and everything appeared shortly.
