| Bangalore Restaurant - Cafe Buzzinga Review |
Last weekend I visited Cafe Buzzinga.. I used to always watch it while driving down to Kundalhalli from Whitefield .. so decided to try it out this weekend.
The name sounds offbeat and the place looked hippie from outside - so we went in. The parking is also available inside the galli.. which is an important factor to go to a restaurant.
Ambiance : 3/5
This a home converted to a cafe.. a small sitting area inside and a large area in the open. The place looks offbeat with some weird cartoon character pictures on the wall.. bright lights inside and a dark natural light outside. The challenge with sitting outside was that there were mosquitoes.. the restaurant had put lots of mosquito coils under each table so the smoke from that was overpowering. This mixes with the smoke coming from hookah on tables.
Inside also there is sitting area, which is much quieter, covered with bright walls and images. The inside sitting is a small space, with only 2-3 tables.
Food : 3.5/5
This cafe offers western cuisine - The menu has Pasta, fries, Soups, Sandwiches, burgers, lasagna, Roasted chicken platters and much more. Zomato says they do not serve alcohol, but when we visited, we saw they serve wine and sangria. Many people were having wine along with Hookah.
We have a young kid, so we avoided the hookah, but I noticed that people were really enjoying their wine, hookah and chicken.
We ordered a Cheese sauce Pasta and a Grilled chicken plate
Chicken Grilled with peri peri sauce and served with 2 sides - French Fries and Onion rings : This was lovely. The platter was huge for one person to finish. The chicken was tender and well marinated in sauces.
The fries were also good, Onion rings were too oily apparently. Except Onion rings, the rest of the stuff was pretty good.
Alfredo Penne Pasta : Good cheesy sauce, with veggies and served with some bread.
Service : Overall good, but a bit slow. The number of customers were more than the number of attendants. We had to remind the waiter many times before he could actually bring our meal.
But the good thing is that the owner, a nice lady, is also there in the restaurant, she will ask if we enjoyed our meal and what is the feedback.
Price : Our bill was around INR 700/- for the above 2 dishes. The portion size of food is pretty good.
Location : 1, Bright Farm, Thubarahalli, Varthur Road, Whitefield, Bangalore
When we go from Hope farm junction towards Kapoor's Cafe, this restaurant comes on the left side. Google Maps location is correct.
Overall I think it is a good place to hangout, I would love to visit there again.
My Rating - 3/5
P.S : All pictures on my blog are original and clicked from my iPhone 6. I visited this place with my family and paid for my food - the review is authentic !!
