  1. yum.. yum and yum..Hey since when did Hot Spot start shawarmas.. I thought those were exclusives of Dishes 😀

  2. @Doc…
    The shawarma at HotSpot is DELICIOUS…
    Priced at forty bucks, u get a platterfull of chk oodled with mayo…
    it is sinfully delicious and quite filling.
    🙂
    do try it out and post hw it was…:D

  3. @Aditya
    HotSpot is at Syndicate Circle. Near the BlueDart office…or opp to the Wicked showroom…any self respectin rickshaw-wallah will take u thr…
    just say the name and upon reachin if u r lured in by the sight and smell of "awesome-ness", u know u r in chicken paradise…
    😛

  4. Very succinctly put. Awesome. 🙂

    But i have one complaint. The shawarmas at dishes are better than the ones at hot spot. 😛
    Also add a lotta places, like the pasta at basil, beijing chilli chicken at CV, Chicken lollypop at dollops. 😀

  5. rather poor grammar. one should know, understand and appreciate the difference between a hastily typed text, and a 'post'.

  6. As per the dictionary
    post:
    in Computers .
    a.to send (a message) to a newsgroup.
    b.to place (text) on a Web site.

    as long as I have pepl's taste bud's rolling, i give two hoots abt the grammar!
    🙂

  7. All the menu suits normal manipalites.. Whats missing is the "Talk about people who generally have post dinner (Planet Cafe) .. and breakfast at 10.30 am (Vikrams)??"

  8. ever missed ur breakfast and u happen to be in udipi, ?
    u can even visit in the evenings. its right opposite the KSRTC bus-stand at udipi
    try the shanti-sagar butter-rava-sada dosa!!!
    u wont be pleased with the ambience, but the food is simply amazing!!!

  9. @yuhhui: Just take a walk from the Parota Point (near MIT) towards Ganesh Bag (well, you can tell the auto to take you to the umamaheshwari temple road). Keep an eye to the left. Its a small place.

  10. @ the two anons..
    i shall def try the butter rava dosa and the Chk (KFC) frm PRAX
    i didnt know PRAX was gud, I am addicted to the ones frm PC!
    🙂
    anyhw, keep posting!!!

  11. Perhaps as a seperate post, you could tell us the locations of these places.. I'm specially curious about the location of the amrita bakery and north mess, though having a comprehensive list of food outlets in manipal with short reviews would be the best thing

  12. @Ria di… my personal fav are the pancakes too
    🙂

    @Tushar… egg puff at polytech canteen??? havent tried tht out…
    will do so… and since wen did u turn veggie???

  13. dear 'writer',

    do you know what's worse than being a not-so-good writer who thinks otherwise?

    Nothing. 🙂

    also, not uploading comments with negative feedback. love the pomp, hate the writing. adios!

  14. Thanks for your kind feedback!
    u must be the guy who invented the blog, judgin by ur know-how…
    🙂
    cheers, keep reading the MB, we have amazing writers to cater to ur specific needs!

  15. Healthy and nutritious food is very important for maintaining a good health. Healthy food involves, regular and timely food, juices, nuts, snacks and much more.

    The Oreo shake in Planet cafe, is real good.
    Do yourselves a favour and have it next time.

    Sreyoshi, It's a nice post, that could have been much better!! 🙂

  16. @Vishaal: Thanks for your comment. Right you are, the Oreo shake is really good in PC.

    I am trying to get better with blogging. Giving it a try. Manipal blog is not for pros, right Vishaal? Its about normal people like u n me venting out their feelings. I did just that 😛

    Hearty apologies to all WRENs and MARTINs. Cheers to all the foodies!

  17. i love parota point!! and Cafe coffee day is one of my favorite places to hang out at!!! it reminds me of my unforgettable days in chandigarh!!

  18. @Anon… i recapitulate, Just take a walk from the Parota Point (near MIT) towards Ganesh Bag (well, you can tell the auto to take you to the umamaheshwari temple road). Keep an eye to the left. Its a small place.
    🙂

  19. HotSpot: Grilled Chicken or Tandoori Chkn
    Dishes/LaSaani: Shawarma
    LaSaani: LFC (LaSaani Fried Chkn)
    Vikram's: Cheese french toast/Cheese Garlic Toast with Cheese Scrambled eggs
    Planet Cafe: Oreo shake and Planet Special Burger
    Prax: equally good as KFC is their Chkn Steak Burger

  20. @Aritra….awesome choices…sound tasty…will try fr sure!!!

    @Anil…i found the vada sambhar at Paangala to be much better…have u had them?
    will def try out the palav at satkar…though whr is it exactly???

  21. Chicken Peshawari at Hot Spot. Egg gravy with Kerala Parotha (speciality of this region)
    Cheese Nan at Dollops
    Schewuan Fried Rice and Tandoori at Hot n Cool
    Shawarma at Dishes is fantastic..They come in 2 kinds; one fully with chicken and the other has chicken with some vegetables..Tried only the chicken one and its simply gr8

    Among the smaller hotels, I love the ICC (Indian Chilly Chicken) and Fish at Manipal Canteen.

  22. how can u all people not talk about. 7 bees……there burgers are the yummiest of all.truly class.it is a nice place …specially for vegetarians

  23. @Anon…tried and tested…the peshawari chkn at HOTSPOT- AWESOME!!!! <3 <3 <3

    wat and whr is ICC?

    @Veggie anon…7 Bees is one of my fav too.. luv the combos…ty fr remindin me!!!

  24. heyyy…where is this coffee house place at? never come across it before and would love to try it out…

  25. @Shreyosi ICC is not name of a place but rather a name of a dish at Manipal Canteen; ICC expands to Indian Chilly Chicken. This place is right opposite to Hangyo Saiba. Well, mind you, this is NOT the Manipal Restaurant but the Manipal Canteen. Also check out the Andhra chicken there. And the Mosambi (Sweet Lime) & Lime Juice there are also good.

    Recent addition to Manipal is the hotel Attill, near the Bajaj Showroom on Manipal Udupi Road. I loved the Chicken Urval, Pepper Chicken. Also it serves good biriyani, tandoori pomfret. The ambience is lovely.

    BTW, where can we get a good authentic Samosa in Manipal/Udupi? I tried quite a few places but was only half satisfied
