This is when you miss the 'love button' on FaceBook. Went to BOC for the first time today, for a set meal of Bannur Mamsa Biryani. Was taken in by the colourful and tasteful decor, with the traditional banana leaf plate seating. Vishal and Divia are the most gracious hosts, and once the food started coming in (unlimited serving), our entire rowdy, noisy group of 10 went utterly quiet, tucking in. The Bannur mamsa biryani was simply outstanding: tasty, melt in your mouth meat accompanied with flawlessly cooked rice, great chilli chicken, with kosumbri (south Indian salad) and boiled eggs. There was mor (buttermilk) served through the meal- and my refills kept the servers going back and forth. Rasam and rice, as always, was also on the table. This was followed by the traditional payasam (Even a person off sugar, couldn't help but have some: delicious) and filter coffee (I took two servings of the perfect South Indian coffee). The proof of a delicious meal is in how it sits in your stomach a few hours later...and here I am feeling light and happy, without the usual heaviness that comes from eating outside. Congratulations to Vishal and Divia for a marvellous experience, for this is what a visit to BOC is: a memorable experience, rather than just another meal out. Full Disclosure: Vishal is a friend.
Divya and Vishal truly put a ding in the food universe! To be a foodie is one thing, to have and hold a conversation about food, quite another and then to be an excellent chef, the shiz!
The menu at Bengaluru Oota Company was testimony to how well they understand the food - for there was no overlapping in flavours and textures. And they do this day in and out!! Take a bow ladies!
The food comes in courses and doled out in copious quantities. Lucky pescetarian me, the evening I visited, the focus was on sea food. So, there was fish, crab and prawn as appetizer, gravy and pulao; each more delectable than the other. All this well punctuated with the home style curd rice, rasam, a unique sautéed salad and fryums. The coup de grâce came in the form of payasam and filter coffee and you dare even whisper NO! because Divya will serve you just
that! ;) :)
Awesome food and hospitality..... Homely, hygenic and wonderful taste. The hosts take personal interest to ensure that every guest is satisfied, happy and contended in every meal course.
Corporates.... Must get ur foreign clients here. It will be a memorable experience for them...
