Angeethi on Museum Road There was a time when one had to go scouting the outskirts of Bangalore for authentic Dhaba food. There are many pretenders of a dhaba now, with reports that some of them serve monkey and dog meats. Thank God! One need not necessarily go far, as right in the heart of Bangalore recreating an authentic dhaba is the Angeethi, off Church Street. The open kitchen, the lanterns, film posters and the rustic charpoys (string cot) reflect the dhaba ambiance at this terrace restaurant. On a holiday the place was teeming with boisterous, (mostly North Indians) young crowd as the afternoon buffets are a big draw here. Though the background music was loud, the cacophony seemed to testify for the Punjabi menu. At Rs 170/= the spread though not lavish did justice to the price. The buffet comprising Mutton
Dum Biryani had the mutton chunks properly marinated, with the spices playing
hide and seek with the rice. The Biryani cooked in Dum style (with the vessel
being sealed by flour paste) retained the pleasant fragrance of the basmati rice.
The Jeera Onion Pilaf was good with the shahi jeera holding the fort to the onions.
The accompanying pacchadi brought out the subtle flavour of the rice. There was
the usual array of fruit and vegetable salads. The Papdi Chaat did not disappoint.
The Tawa Macchi was a tad oily, little overdone but tasty (as only fish can be).
The Murg hara masala- was chicken tenderly done. The Dahi Bhalla notched full
marks as the curd did not sour on a hot afternoon and the bhallas well soaked
in the curds had a melt in the mouth feel and texture. A birthday party gang was quietly but heartily enjoying the treat. Sadhana Rao-- the food is pretty good but the place is too crowded and noisy.
