Dining
Bangalore is a gourmand's paradise, as the local cuisine takes in influences from Andhra, Chettinad, Hyderabadi, Tamil, Mangalorean, and Keralan dishes with a big emphasis on rice, Sambar and Rasam (a lentil-based vegetable stew and spicy soup) dishes. As a global capital, Bangalore also offers a great variety of international cuisine but the real delight is to fully indulge in its delicious local cuisine, as there is something for everyone. You should start the day with a plate of unbeatable Masala Dosa, a delicious crepe stuffed with spiced potatoes known as the 'food of the gods', accompanied by some chai tea. Lunch or dinner normally consists of steamed rice, curries, vegetable dishes and pickles, and one or two sweet dishes like poppadoms, buttermilk, curd and ghee. It is tradition to start the meal with a sweet dish and finish it with curd rice, and everything is served on well-rinsed banana leaves.
