#HomeDining #Communal #GourmetOnTheRoad
Bengaluru Oota Company is a unique dining experience run by two lady entrepreneurs Divya Prabhakar and Vishal Shetty. Divya is a Gowda, and Vishal is from the Bunt community of Mangalore. They bring together their respective cuisines in a marriage of flavours, represented in their customizable tasting menus.
In this episode of Gourmet On The Road, we learn how the two women started this enterprise. Food Lovers’ Editor Kripal Amanna sits down to sample their menu for the day which includes a Kane Rava Fry, Pelata Gatti (steamed jackfruit dumplings) with Kori Ajadina, a Bannur Mamsa Pulav. He rounds off the meal in true South Indian fashion with curd rice, rasam and a badam halwa.
KOSAMBARI
This cucumber based traditional salad has just the right amount of tempering to give it that savoury lift. A great start to a meal here.
7/10
GARLIC SANDIGE
scrumptious crunch with a strong garlick-y flavour.
7/10
GOLI BAJJI
hot and freshly made! crisp, crunchy outside with a yielding inside. Makes for a spirited bite with the coconut chutney, owing to the green chilli heat in the chutney!
7.5/10
KANE RAVA FRY
this rava-fried kane is just the right size. Ticks the right boxes - the flaky freshness of the fish, well- balanced masala and the perfect semolina crumb.
9/10
KAIMA UNDE
soft to the touch and literally melts in your mouth! you don't have to chew on it at all. A tava fried crust yields to the moist coriander flavoured mutton mince on the palate.
9/10
PELATA GATTI
similar in texture to an idli but with the mellow sweetness that emanates from flecks of ripe jackfruit. A happy discovery!
9/10
KORI AJADINA
the chicken has absorbed the savoury, creamy, coconut-ty flavours of this curry. when eaten with the pelata gatti, it is a divine combination.
9/10
BANNUR MAMSA PULAV
the rice has all of the flavours of the meat, spices, and herbs, with a subtle citrusy twang. With a bite to it, the meat makes for a happy union with the flavourful rice, the pulav takes a zesty turn when eaten with the piquant pudina chutney.
8/10
MUNCHI KORI (CHILLI CHICKEN)
served as a side to the pulav here. the chicken is braised in a lovely, savoury, onion masala with mild heat.
8/10
AVAREKAI PALYA
the vegetable still has its crunch and fibre. the bite of the coconut gives it that added texture.
7/10
RASAM
tangy rasam that’s low on spice.
7/10
MOSARANNA (CURD RICE)
cool and refreshing with the sweet pop of the pomegranate seeds. lightly tempered with that roasted curry leaf flavor. the pineapple in the mensakai made for sweet and sour combination with the curd rice.
8/10
ANANNAS (PINEAPPLE) MENSAKAI
more sour than spicy, with a mellow heat that stays on the palate.
8/10
BADAM HALWA
made of almonds, cashew nuts, ghee, and khova this is a decadent, thick halwa.
8.5/10
FILTER COFFEE
with a top layer of airy froth and deep, strong flavours. this coffee is brewed just right.
8/10
A meal at bengaluru oota company is priced at Rs 950 upwards.
