NAMMA FOOD STREET

a mouth watering journey across sajjan rao circle.........

An evening walk across the streets of sajan rao circle ,u are sure to notice
our very own food street....No points for guessing what it is famous for...
Located in the heart of Bangalore at V.V. Puram, Food Street or V.B. Bakery
Road as it also known, is a true "adda" for hardcore foodies.I have been visiting
the place from since my PU days and since than i have been a fan of it!
Patrons come by walk, by bikes, by cars, park in the narrow streets branching
off of the main street and saunter lazily from one cart to another, sampling the fare from each cart.

The road has it all:from the " bun-butter congress "of VB bakery, to the akki roti,
masala dosa, gulab jamoon and the artistic stuffed bondas of the roadside stalls
The present attractions include 15 varieties of American baby corn masala,
badam milk and paneer fried rice to name a few.

The road had evolved over times to match the changing tastes of the people...
From south indian masala dosas to north indian rumali roti's,panner and gobi rolls to curryfied chinees food , the road is a sure treat for all groups of people.

But no mention of Food Street is complete without the cornwallahs and their pushcarts. Parked right at the end of the road, these vendors don't stop at just roasting and boiling corn. These people truly seem to be doing magic!!!.From butter baby corn, to American baby corn masala, and the seasonal mango corn mix the list is never ending!!. The number of recipes is just mind-boggling and the customer can mix 'n' match any recipe.

Then the famous gulkand stall serving the delicious gulkand with banana or icecream is a mouth watering climax........

In the days of PIZZA HUT and COFEE DAY culture these places are the only bond we have with the old times .Other traditional restaurants include Iyers Lunch Home, Maddur Railway Hotel (Tiffanys), Vidharthi Bhavan, Dwaraka, Brahmins Coffee Bar, Udipi Krishna Bhavan, Shivanna's Gulkand storeā€¦.. The list could go on and on.

So, what are you waiting for? Get off your couch and rediscover the art of stuffing yourself silly. Food Street opens for business by 6.30 pm and is open till well after 11 pm.
