Diet Resolutions Gone With The Wind

While you were wondering why the blog has been lying dormant since quite some time, I was thinking up ways to make my blog more interesting. After posting articles on the budget, advertisements, etc, I decided it was time to bring in some information on restaurants in Bangalore. So, below you will find reviews of two restaurants in Bangalore which are situated at either ends of the city.

While one is the Rajdhani located in the well known UB City, the other is another restaurant called Sukh Sagar, a famous eating joint of South Bangalore. 

Rajdhani

Rajdhani is a restaurant in the newly opened UB City. It is an authentic Gujarati cum Rajasthani restaurant. The people are seated under canopies in the open air which allow them to have a look at other buildings within the UB City. The menu mainly consists of Gujarati and Rajasthani dishes served in a thali. The quantity of food is unlimited. Each thali costs around Rs.250 plus taxes. They serve nearly 45 items on the menu. Some of the dishes are khaman dhokla, puran polis, malpova, rabdi, Gujarati and Rajasthani khadis, dal, four different curries, rotis, rice, khichdi, curd rice, etc. Although the menu varies everyday, the thali is prepared keeping the basic theme of serving the people Gujarati and Rajasthani food in mind. You can also see the chefs preparing the dough and the rotis from where you are seated.

The service is extremely fast keeping in mind the large number of people who come to have lunch over there. The waiters and managers are very hospitable. All the waiters are dressed in traditional Rajasthani style. As soon as you occupy the table, a waiter gets a traditional brass jug and bowl using which you can wash your hands. Once you finish your food, once again the same jug and bowl are brought for you to wash your hands. They also have juices and soft drinks which you can order separately. Once you go to this place, you will eventually end up going there either alone, or with family and friends again and again. Either way, you will end up liking this place. So, next time you want to go out for lunch, the first place you will think of is Rajdhani. Along with great food, you also have a great ambiance.

Sukh Sagar

This is a restaurant located in the heart of Jayanagar, i.e, Jayanagar 4th Block. This is basically a multi-cuisine vegetarian family restaurant where self-service facility also available. The self-service counter is ideal for the peak hour crowd, mainly college students and office-goers who want to grab a quick bite. They serve South Indian, North Indian and Chinese cuisine. They also serve delectable chaats, desserts, milkshakes and fruit juices.

The service is pretty good and fast. The ambience is very homely, just like the area in which it is situated. The crowd is a good middle class crowd. It is nearly always full at any time of the day or night. This is one place where you never come back disappointed with whatever food you have ordered. Here you get good value for money. The staff of the restaurant is very courteous and friendly. Also, the place is pretty hygienic.

If you want to go in a large group, it is better to reserve a table beforehand as there is a chance that you might have to wait to get a table especially during weekends. It will cost around Rs.150-200 for a meal for two people. Whenever we decide to eat out, the first option is Sukh Sagar!
