A foodie's trip to Bengaluru is incomplete without eating at MTR. Had breakfast at their Indiranagar outpost. Ordered Vada, Chow chow bath, Neer Dosa, Masala dosa. The medu vada was crisp, tasty served with a good chutney and sambhar. Neer dosa was thin yet fluffy and paired with a tangy tomato chutney and a caramelised grated coconut. Masala dosa was comforting but fairly okay. The show stealer was the chow chow bath with two mounds of the savory and sweet bath aka sheera. Made in ghee I relished each bite and this is what shall bring me back here. Wash down the food with their famous filter coffee and left happy !

Tucked in the cozy suburb of Dadar-Matunga is the newly opened Ambretto, a startup by two engineer foodies Anuradha and Sagar.
On my entry I was floored with the fresh interiors, big smiles and knowledgeable servers who guided me through their brilliant sandwich and salad menu.
To start with I ordered the Bite Club Empanadas, which inside its freshly baked crescent dough, has sumptuous, creamy Pesto Chicken filling. The portion was good and truly appreciated the small details as to the customised wrapping paper and plastic boxes in which the food was served.
Along with the food do order their refreshing Black Currant iced tea.
In addition ordered a submarine and a salad for a takeaway and after a 30 min ride home we ate the "Pirates of the 'Curry' Bean" sub stuffed with Caribbean styled curry marinated chicken strips, and the Meaty Fajita salad customized with lime cilantro and ranch dressing and the special fajita spiced chicken and peppers.
Totally recommend adding the fiery Sriracha sauce to your sandwiches which is not available at many other eateries in India.
On the whole - applauds for their food variety, quality, service and next time you drop by or buzz them for a delivery - surely ask them for their suggestions as "Hell Yeah !" they know their food well.
