Dining out can always cheer one up. And if the food served is healthy and tasty then it definitely is a double treat. That’s what the menu at Spice It restaurant, at Ibis Bengaluru City Centre is all about. It serves you delicious treats to eat.
This multi-cuisine restaurant, on Rajaram Mohan Roy Road, is done in contemporary design and offers you a clear view of its open kitchen. While you are waiting for your food you can watch the chefs busy shuttling between shelves, chopping and stirring, creating your food.
“We also have the ‘You Create, We Cook offer’, where diners can explore their culinary skills in an interactive kitchen environment.”
The restaurant serves you a buffet and an a la carte menu but the speciality is that it serves you a special menu on prior order, created by executive chef Dipak Adhikary.
For starters it’s the smoked salmon canapé, which is thin-sliced smoked salmon, served on crisp bread. This one has a strong smoky flavour with an equally tangy cream cheese. It can be wolfed down with the subtle-flavoured cranberry ginger shooter.
Then it’s the light chicken beer soup, which has a dash of beer in it. There are no chicken pieces in this. But you get a hint of coconut milk and every sip comes with a bite of the green sprouts, which is tasty and healthy. The soup is absolutely light.
Then it’s off to the crisp barbeque chicken drumettes; a must try. Marinated chicken drumettes are grilled on slow heat and served with pineapple grilled slices. This tangy-sweet and crisp dish makes you smile with every bite.
For the main course it’s the seafood risotto with Italian short-grained rice, cooked with sea food, cream and parmesan cheese and white wine. This cheesy and sticky dish is so filling that we decide to seal the meal with a dessert.
For that the chef recommends the crumb-coated deep-fried ice cream scoop. Here the frozen ice cream is filled into a rice crumb dough and is deep fried. So you are biting into a crisp piping hot crumb with a chilled ice-cream filling. It makes you roll your eyes towards heaven with every bite.
The food served here is not heavy on your tummy or pocket. Though it includes cheese and meat – it’s good even for the health conscious, adds the chef.
This special menu is served on prior order for which you can call the restaurant on 42548000.
