A Bollywood night!

The city of Bangalore is popular for a variety of reasons- one, for its pleasant weather, two for its clean roads and three for the multiplicity of restaurants.

Bangalore boasts of having separate restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Not that you won’t find a multipurpose restaurant there, but some of these restaurants make different sections for different hours.

And the range of Indian as well as international cuisines that these restaurants offer is just applaudable! From Italian Pizzas and Chinese Noodles to Punjabi Paranthas and South Indian Dosa- a restaurant in Bangalore has it all.

Talking about the interior, some of the restaurants in Bangalore are based on specific themes and I think it helps in increasing the overall appeal of a restaurant. It was during one of my visits to this wonderful city that I came across a magnificent restaurant based on the Bollywood theme. Here’s a list of all that I loved there.

•Posters: The posters of some of the classic movies were placed on the walls of the restaurant and it literally took me to another world. It reminded me of some of the great works of our veteran actors!

•Dialogues: As if the posters were not enough to give you a sure-shot Bollywood treat, some epic dialogues of Hindi Cinema were also written between the posters. I couldn’t help reading those dialogues in the same manner they were said in the movies (mentally, of course!)

•Servers: The excitement went to another level when I saw even the servers dressed in Bollywood Characters. From “Gabbar” and “Basanti” of Sholay to “Anarkali” and “Salim” of Mughal-e-azam, one could locate all popular characters of Bollywood.

Undoubtedly, I felt like I have suddenly become a part of the film industry. Also, the food was good and I’ll surely go back.

The Age of Colourful Burgers

There was a time, that burgers were simple and straightforward, just two bread buns, with a patty in between and some lettuce and sauce to go with it. That was it, no more and no less. But, in the past few months there has been a flood of colourful burgers, from the dark black ones, to fiery red and now even white burgers are available.

Yes, the age of normal looking burgers is out and now one can have their choices of not only burger, but even what colour they want it to be. Burgers in Delhi are getting a makeover and they are all, ready in pretty and bright colours.

For some time now, people have wanted to deviate from the usual, monotonous choices of fast food and are expecting new and exciting changes in their food. From the introduction of smoked food in Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore and their immense popularity too, people nowadays are not afraid to try out unique dishes, which might see impossible but turn out to be better than expected.

In the west, the introduction of hybrid dessert like cronuts made from part donut and part croissant or the cruffin again a hybrid croissant and donut mix, but shaped like a muffin, has spread this frenzy to mix together to extremely different dishes and see what is the result.

Now, the fast food industry too, has to up their game with many restaurants bringing up new and original dishes and also international chains opening up, thus increasing the competition. But the problem with a burger is how to change it, how to make it more exciting. And voila, the coloured burgers are here.

International and domestic chains alike are not adding colours extracted from vegetables or sauces to their burger buns to give them a creative twist and add a bit of flavour to not just the whole burger but also to the buns. And they certainly look really good, all colourful.

A range of vegetarian as well as non-vegetarian burgers are served in these outlets – beef burger being the most popular of all.

But there are days when we don’t feel like going out and still enjoying the burgers- what are food deliveries for! Just go online and order. And there are days when we want to try our hand at cooking. If you come across one such day, here’s how to make a beef burger at home.

1.Get the right beef, season it inside out with spices and then tip it into a bowl containing cut onions and eggs. Mix all the contents to obtain en even mixture.

2.Now divide the whole mixture into four parts and roll these parts into balls- as the size of a tennis ball. Now flatten these balls to make patties of them.

3.Leave the patties in fridge so they harden up. Then place them on an already heated up and oiled up barbeque. Flip them over.

4.Take the burgers out and leave them in plate for a while so that all their juices are absorbed. Then put them inside the partially cut buns and top them up with sauces.

Now, you’re good to go! Enjoy the delights of a restaurant at your home!
