This is a place for my rants. I presume it is going to be about food. The places that I have trudged into in the quest for something to relish. And I have been successful more often at the hole in the walls and quiet little restaurants that are tucked away... far from the maddening crowd.

Kalpaka ... Kerala Food

And it was a friday evening when I craved for the fluffy Kerala Parottas... Decided to try out Kalpaka on Kammanahalli Main Road. A block or so away from Sena/Jal Vayu Vihar. Had noticed the sign which declared Kerala food a number of times when I drove past. It took a while to convince my wife that the place was worth checking out. But, finally she relented, and off we went.

It was with a bit of trepidation that I approached the place. The looks were not that inviting. But, it was a surprise. You want through a small corridor and enter a small garden with thatched huts that were pretty clean and ethnic.

Coming to the main part - food... We ordered Parottas, Beef Olathiyathu, Ney Meen Curry, Egg Biriyani and Mutton Biriyani. A grand total of Rs 165/-. Parottas were the best - soft and fluffy, with very little oil showing. Beef was soft and well cooked. Sis and Wife liked their Biriyanis. Overall, a decent experience at down to earth prices.

Weekend menu is definitely more appealing - Kappa, Rabbit, Quail, Duck and a plethora of other meats that only Mallus can fathom. I would definitely like to come back on a sunday to check it all out.
