If you are not a diet conscious person and
would rather prefer ‘die eating’ just
like me, then head to the all-new Punjab
Bistro at Koramangala. The weather calls for tangdi,
galouti and tikkas. I had dinner at Punjab
Bistro recently and loved the all-new
setup of this place. With neutral shades all around, this classy bistro has a peaceful atmosphere, despite the fact that it
is located right next to the bustling Forum Mall signal – a perfect place to
spend time with your loved ones.
My meal started with an Amuse Bouche made
of yogurt and it gave me the feeling that I am at the right place. As it was a
cold rainy evening, I ordered a ‘Tomato Basil Shorba’ which was just all right.
It lacked the fresh basil taste. The accompaniments given with the Shorba were
herbed bread and lavash which complimented well with the soup.
We were a small group of foodies who always
say strictly no to vegetarian dishes especially when it comes to appetizers.
But there are few restaurants in Bangalore where you shouldn’t miss the
vegetarian dishes and it reminds you, veg is equally good as the non-vegetarian spread. Punjab Bistro is one
such place. Here we tried the following – Amritsari special Tikki Chole, Punjab bistro special Chicken Tikka, Pathar Ka
Gosht, Mutton Galouti, Amritsari Kheema Kulche, Chicken Stuffed Drumsticks
(Tangri Kebab) and Palak Corn Quesadillas.
All the appetizers were brilliantly done,
beautifully plated and blissfully amazing. Few dishes were plated using the topping
of sirka wala
pyaaz (Vinegar onion) which caught my
attention and these small things enhanced the flavors.
I am a Vodka-Wine-Beer person when it comes
to ‘responsible drinking’ and this time for a change I tried the Whisky Marmalade
Crush and it was good. I ordered it without the egg white. I tasted my friend's drinks as well and Coffee-tini was the best out of all the blends.
After stuffing too much of heavy appetizers
we had a palate cleanser before ordering the main course.

For the main
course I had the ‘talk of the town dishes’
– Dal Moradabadi, Laal Maas with Sheermal, Chur Chur Paratha and steamed rice.
There are no words to describe this simple yet heavy Dal I had at the Punjab
Bistro. It was just heavenly. Sheermal, an Iranian flatbread goes well with the
fiery Laal Maas. Chur Chur Paratha too
was good. Before visiting Punjab Bistro I have heard so much about these dishes
and the quality and taste of the dishes were very impressive.
We shared a Bistro special Mille Feuille
for dessert along with their famous paan shot. I loved the Desi version of
Mille Feuille made of layers of Gulab
Jamuns and fresh strawberries.
My experience at Punjab Bistro was really
good and we were lucky to meet one of the Partners of this bistro, Mr.Sajjal; a gentleman
with ample experience in F&B industry. If he is around, he will make sure
that you have a great dining experience and leave the Bistro with a smiling
face.
