Restaurants and Hotels in Bangalore - My Reviews



You can find reviews about restaurants close to your area in the popular forums like http://www.zomato.com/

Here, I put my experiences with Bangalore restaurants.


1.) Aagamam Veg Restaurant (Just opposite to Indira Nagar Metro Station)


Address:
3rd Floor, No - 545, C.M.H Road, Near Metro Station, Indiranagar IInd Stage, Bangalore
Timing: 12:00 noon to 3:00 pm Phone: 9742346664, 080-40956662

 Offer:
      Snapdeal offer : (Rs. 40 to avail a Buy-1-Get-1 offer on veg lunch buffet)

 Review:
      We, group of 8 people went on May 31, 2013 (Friday) for Veg buffet lunch.  The final bill without any hidden costs comes around Rs. 150 per person !.  They greeted us with the butter milk.  Then, they gave Tomato shorba soup which was not good.  After complaining to their manager, they replaced it with the babycorn soup which was good.  Then, we had Salads, Starters, Rotis, Rice items and Desserts.  The quality, quantity, taste, service, ambience, number of items all are good.  Kids can enjoy the metro train view as this restaurant is located just opposite to the Indira nagar metrostation.  I was thoroughly satisfied with this place.  It is really a steal offer ! enjoy.

Rating : 5 / 5

2.) Tamil Hotels in Madiwala :

There are 4 good Tamilnadu style hotels in Madiwala.

3.) Hotel Pongal - My Rating 4 / 5

4.) Madurai Vinayagar Hotel - My Rating 3.5 / 5

All these three hotels are in the Maruthi Nagar Main Road in close proximity.
If you go from St. Johns Hospital (Hosur Road) to Udupi Garden (Inner Ring Road), You will go via Maruthi Nagar.

India's Mobile Price Comparision Websites



Do you want to search mobile prices across leading online stores in India ?

I see this facility in Sulekha.com, 91mobiles and in mysmartprice.com.

Enjoy.

Once I bought cheaper 'spice' mobile phone for Rs. 1200.  It has hell lot of features for this small amount.  But it emanates lot of heat if I talk continuously for 15 minutes.  This problem was not seen with my older Nokia 6030 Express music phone.  So, I stopped using the cheaper phones.

So, check the SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) of your new phone before buying it. More the SAR value, more the radiation you would feel.  So, choose the low SAR value phone. 

Nokia phone SAR values can be found here,
