Le Jardin Bangalore

This is the coffee shop at the Oberoi in Bangalore (which I regard as one of the established best hotels in the city). Went there for lunch and tried the pre-set menu (with combination of buffet). Basically the salads and dessert are spread out while you can selectteh main course from a choice of 10-15 dishes. Its a different idea but the food tastes good - its as simple as that. I tried the prawns and fish curries. was good. The dal and aloo subzi is always there to accompany the main course order. They can do better with an assorted bread basket! The taste of the food is nice and leaves a light feeling. The curries are fairly spicy but I guess the advantage here is that you can order it as you like - service is pretty personalized. Overall a good experience when you are ready to spend on the higher side. BTW - I would strongly recommend a cup of coffee at their open air bar (Polo Club) - it is served in a tray with some cookies and you will really enjoy it after a nice meal.

Style - 4 stars

Would I go there again - Yes!

Food for two - Rs 2500
