Never shop when you are free....provokes to buy all the "not really needed" things and digs a deep hole in the pocket :D :D

It was delicious!
So, my 5th year in Bangalore, and a few months back heard about the "chat street" of VV Puram from a colleague. Surprisingly, my hubby being here for 30 years, having studied in BIT,visited VB bakery a thousand times,but hadnt a single time tasted the delicacies in the street!Finally we decided to give it a try and that happened the last friday.
I had heard my colleagues discussing that its not like "before" and all. So googled it and again found mixed responses !
So,we were there and here is the story:
Its a narrow street with a dozen shops on either side. I found the cooking clean enough and far better than most of the restaurants :D. Haa, though there are only handful of shops,you definitely have to give a second visit for 2 reasons:
1.Your appetite will not allow to taste everything one single evening
2.You'l relish so much that you'll be back again
We started with a plate of idli - idlis were soft ,chutney was average though
Next,the bajjis - raw banana, mangalore bajji and maddur wada - all were good. So still 2-3 varieties including the capsicum one left for the next visit
The third was hot jelebis - 4 for Rs.10/- I have nothing else to say!
Then,Pav bhaji - very very tasty.
It was dosa time now! There are 3-4 shops making the dosa and we chose Raju tiffin centre. Masala dosa - and it came with a fine roast, nandini ghee poured generously! It tasted delicious.
I was almost full by this time, and we were in a dilemma to share a plate of paddu or to share another dosa or akki rotti. Finally went with a plate of "mosaru kodbale". Hadnt heard this before and gave a try.It was really awesome.Haa and now comes my try for that and the next post will be the experience with it :)
We were almost done when we decided to end with badam milk. I went for custard fruit salad while my hubby went with badam milk.
It was a wonderful experience altogether - very tasty food for a very low price!
Whoever has not tried, just go for it.You have missed something!
