Chef Centerstage... yesterday
Teppan Japanese Grill & Sushi Bar Ulsoor | 1 review
First impression: pleasant ambience, lighting and decor.
Looking for a quiet corner table? Nope , be prepared for a kinda communal dining, while about 8 people sit around the Teppanyaki ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teppanyaki) with the Chef Centerstage. Be prepared for a performance that includes food. Clickety clack, flames, food histrionics while salt and pepper tins do a small jig on the steel surface of the stove. And disappear into the magician, oops, Chef's hat. As does the egg, which whizzes like a top and then disappears into the , you guessed it, the Chefs headgear! Who needs cupboa... read more -

Not authentic? Jan 02, 2012
Ascentel MG Road | 1 review
I had got a replacement Blackberry battery , and had to replace it twice. It was about 1800 Rs and he assured me it was genuine. The second time the person asked for an additional 50/100 as he was going to give me company authentic,with packaging , whatever that means.
Th second time i picked a USB power cum car charger which could be used for iPad and Blackberry (with USB cable) and that didn't work either. it caused me a lot of inconvenience as i was away on a 10 day trip with no charger - I had t keep borrowing an acquaintance's charger ! I texted the gentleman to share the problem... read more -

Pizza Stop Cunningham Road | 3 reviews
Tucked away off Cunningham Rd, this place is small. A couple of tables inside and the same outdoors. Pure vegetarian , btw.
Too late fr a proper lunch we dropt in about 4. They have pastas but we saw that pizzas were being hand made so opted fr that. The nawabi pizza was lovely with spinach, olives n tomatoes .Thin crust ,freshly rolled and baked served with chili flavoured olive oil. I think rs 235 but the others were in the 170 range. Coupled with an iced tea, it was a lovely meal. The dessert cafe Dolci is next door with a selection of pastries n breads.
We had the place to ourselves... read more -

Avoid the Spa Dec 29, 2010
Talwalkar's Sadashivnagar | 2 reviews
Booked the Swedish massage on a Sunday. Although the spa manager was more than helpful when we called to book, which gave me a good feeling about the place . However, the Spa Experience was pretty nigh terrible.
At Rs 1000 , the Swedish massage was just an uninspired battering. I specifically told the masseuse that I had sciatic pain that i would love to have some more attention on , and she ignored me and have the standard and untutored rub down. The spa room was tiny, and the bed like a hospital stretcher. The striped towel ( dirty) was covered by a cream (not white) coloured viscose... read more -

Authentic Thai takeaway- Fact or Fiction ? Dec 26, 2010
Asia in a Box Frazer Town | 10 reviews
Let me address the title first .
Its a fact .
Outstanding place , service and quality , despite my rather mixed first experience with them.
This was recommended by Suman , whose food reviews and blog I value. I ordered the Char Sui Pork and the Pad Thai with the Cashew Chicken.
the sauces that came along with are awesome.
Asia in a BOx is awesome!
Its in my past unfortunately as although they kept sayig next month , the last year has seen no door deliveries to my area. If you stay either near Jal Vayu or Kormangalla, you are the luckiest soul alive.
