GUFA- Colossal Cave Dining Adventure

I felt the above thought might be true , and went to the Restaurant Gufa to Inspire myself , on my wife's 25th Birthday . This offers North Indian, Peshawari and Afghani on the Top Floor of the President Hotel , Jayanagar .
HOW TO REACH THERE : Address : Diagonal Road, 3rd Block Jayanagar, Bangalore-11
Suppose You are Coming from the Jayanagar 4th Block Petrol Pump towards the BHS first Grade College .Keep Staright and Cross the Redlight on BHS First Grade College .Take right form the next redlight after BDA Complex , go straight till you see the ICICI Bank after the Redlight . President's Hotel is Just Adjacent to the ICICI Bank .
Phone Number : 080 41808777 .
HOW MUCH WOULD IT COST : I think its a costly Restaurant . 1 round of wine , 1 starter and 1 main course costed around Rs.1200 .
HOW ABOUT THE AMBIENCE : Best Ambience ever experienced .The Restaurant is in the form of a Cave .If you are a Nature lover , then It will add to your mood .The AC was chilling and the fountain next to our chair was making the experience more realistic .

HOW ABOUT THE SERVICE : Service is OK . I liked the fact that they treated us very respectfully and with very nice gesture .But somehow the starters came very Late , after the drinks .I expected it to come with the drinks .Rest was good .One of the staff members , came personally to take the feedback after the billing.

HOW ABOUT THE DINING EXPERIENCE : -
DRINKS : Drinks are costly . I ordered two wine based Cocktails :- 1. Ritz Hitz - White Wine + Orange Juice + Blend of Flavour - Rs . 250 (I liked it the green coloured drink , topped with the Orange slice ) 2. Mimosa - White Wine + Orange Juice - Rs. 250

STARTERS : I ordered 1 Plate Ruzwali Kebab which were Damn Tasty . It had 6 pieces of Fabulous Tandoori Murg (chicken) .Pieces were little bigger than average size of chicken Tikka . It costed around 195 .

MAIN COURSE : By the time main course started , we felt like half stuffed .We ordered Murg Patiala . The murg pieces were stuffed in the sheath of egg . Personally , I donot like egg dishes ,but this one was good .Egg lovers can surely go for it, others avoid .It costed us -Rs. 225
BREADS : We ordered Noni Rotis which costed -Rs. 70/each .This is a special roti with Khameera , probably the bread of North West Frontier provinces.
Tandoori Rotis costed us - Rs. 40/each .

I would say the overall experience was great . I went with a mood to dine in a different ambience .Along with the ambience , the food was also good .Yes............. , you can surely take your girlfriends , wives for a surprise dinner with dim lights .No candle lights ...............

RATE THE RESTAURANT OUT OF 10 IN FOOD : 6.5
RATE THE RESTAURANT OUT OF 10 IN AMBIENCE : 9
RATE THE RESTAURANT OUT OF 10 IN OVERALL EXPERIENCE : 8.5
