6 Ballygunge Place, Indiranagar, Bangalore

To start with, although we were told the place opens at 12.30pm, when we went there the waiters were being breifed by their captian and we were let in only after 12.50pm.

The batter fried pomfret that we had for starter had a rather thick batter..so much so that it had to be leterally broken before one could reach the fish.  The fish was tasty but the dish was a inconvenient due to the batter... probably, dipped in some cold batter that was kept in the fridge for ease of cooking.

The rohu in mustard gravy was also a let down..it seemed to be a fried piece of rohu put in some mustard gravy, made in bulk, just before serving, rather than being cooked in it.

The mutton dish had pieces that were very hard although it was tasty. Probably the mutton had not thawed enough!  Rubbery mutton in however tasty a gravy is unacceptable.

And to top it all, the manager or owner has his smokes in an airconditioned restaurant and reviews comments of guests..the smell of cigarettes not quite stirring the apetite.  Thank God for small mercies, now with a ban on smoking in restaurants, the guests who dare to eat in 6bally..would at least be spared the 'aroma' of cigarettes.

Avoidable!
