The number of fusion restaurants in the city are aplenty. There’s always a mix of international with other flavours from the country to add to the taste of a dish. ‘Glocal’, the latest addition to the fusion restaurant scene, also boasts of the same but with a twist, making it Bengaluru’s cuisine.
The restaurant binds the concept of all-day dining with a casual lounge experience. When one walks into the restaurant, they will be greeted by infrastructure that gives it a rustic look. The walls are bare but covered with tiles.
‘Glocal’ offers a live kitchen on the ground floor where one can see their food being prepared and what truly goes on behind the scene.
The food and drinks are the main highlight of the restaurant, and they offer an interesting touch to some of the dishes offered.
The cutlery offered will definitely add an intriguing touch to it. The plates are small, square and bowl-like and each dish comes in a small saucepan vessel, making it a cute way of enjoying one’s food.
The grills and dips are some of their specialities. One could try ‘Black pepper kukkad kebab’, ‘Kung fu nuggets’, ‘Arab ki thali’ and ‘Hot tense barrah’, each of which comes with an interesting twist of dips. However, the ‘Coorgi murgi dry fry’ doesn’t make a great choice for those who don’t like their appetisers dry. While the ‘Chaat pizza’, ‘Biryani risotto with khakra chura’ and ‘Tandoori chicken risotto’ are innovative, they aren’t something that one would actually expect them to be.
The interesting selection of desserts makes things interesting. The ‘Firni creme brulee’ has the perfect amount of caramelised sugar on top and the creamy texture to give the melt-in-your-mouth experience.
The ‘Beeramisu’ is yet another innovative way of presenting the traditional tiramisu with a flavourful twist.
But for those who like pungent flavours, the ‘Kalkatta paan cheesecake’ is an interesting choice. Adding the ‘oomph’ factor, they also serve the desserts with edible spoons.
They also have a mix of concoctions like ‘Black magic’, ‘Infused jar’ and ‘Toxic base’ to relish with your dishes.
If you are a mocktail lover, the ‘Kokum desi cooler’ is recommended as it is fused with kokum syrup, mint, cranberry juice, black salt, and sprite.
