Bangalore Food Tour- The Rice Delicacies

Today, in this vibrant city Bangalore we with Kunal Bysani, a food content writer we explore some of the famous, mouth-watering dishes. We first headed to Mudanna hotel and tried their famous mudanna pulao served in a cone made out of banana leaves. It is undoubtedly Bangalore’s favourite pulao and they like to call it as palav. It is truly flavourful and mild in its texture and taste. Also, their triangle idli is out of this world. These are special soft idlis in the shape of triangle served with spicy sagu. Our next destination was SGS non veg- gundu palav. We try their chicken palav, a dish which has rice and chicken cooked separately but, best tastes with black pepper and salt. We then move to KR market also known as Krishna Rajendra market is a retail market. The market was constructed by the king of mysuru himself. It has one of Asia’s larget flower market and also incorporates, the butti market. Butti is basket in kannada and the vegatbles here are sold in an old school style per basket. We head to, Rangana military hotel and begin with kaal soup, a leg soup which is really healthy to drink and then moved on to having dose- keema gojju, a dish which consists of dosa and mutton keema having a slight turmeric flavour to it. Next, we go to shivaji military hotel. We began with chicken dry, a chicken marinated really nicely with yoghurt and spicy black pepper and then tried their amazing Donne biryani which originated here. Last but not the least, we went to the Shree idly corner and tried their soft idlis with coconut and red chilli chutney served with homemade butter. Not to forget, we tried their savage bhaat too. This is rice made into noodles incorporated with spicy tadka and served in a classic settee style or shavige called shastralu among Bangalore settys.   Places visited: Mudanna hotel Dharmaraya Swamy Temple Rd, Dodpete, Nagarathpete, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560002   KR market Huriopet, Chickpet, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560053   Rangana military hotel 61, 1st floor, opp to Indian oil petroleum, KR Rd, 7th Block, Jayanagar, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560070   shiva military hotel No. 718, 1st C Main, 45th Cross, 8th Block, Jayanagar, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560082   Shree idly corner Veera Pillai St, Bharati Nagar, Shivaji Nagar, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560001
