And we went 'Blimey' : Blimey

Location : Level 05, 1 MG Road Mall, Trinity Circle, Kensington Road, Ulsoor, Bengaluru- 560008

I was bestowed with this oppurtunity on a Friday evening to attend the unravelling of the Big Foodie Fiesta Season-III by the Food Blogger's Association of Bangalore aka FBAB and therein, I was ushered with a gift voucher of Blimey. Little did I know about the place and so, on a Saturday evening, we decided to give this place a shot.



Blimey is located on the 5th floor of the 1 MG Road Mall alongside The Tao Terraces. The place looked charming. The staircases leading to the rooftop looked magnificent with the white curtains and green lights dawning the place. Absolute treat to the eyes. On one side you find an extensive bar and on the other, there were couches and tables. The very fact that you can overlook the Ulsoor lake and the MG road while dining added an extra charm to it. We rested ourselves on a comfortable couch and we surely did go "Blimey".




The drinks menu looked really exquisite :




The roof-top looked great too with those colorful lights doing the rounds and some great foot-tapping beats as it was a Saturday night. People started flocking in for the party and the scene became merrier. The DJ was all set for the party.







Coming to the significant part, the food. Well, we ordered Chicken nachos with cheese. Not one of the best we have had but the fact that it was served with some extra mayonnaise made us actually love it. The cheese seemed a little less but then, the mayonnnaise did the magic. And yes, the onion-tomato salad was a great accompaniment too.



The dirty martini was really "dirty". The portion of gin and olive juice was appropriate and the presentation was lovely.


The Chicken Pesto was absolutely bewitching. The ample amount of chicken, cream and cheese made it amazing. A real treat !



The staff was really courteous and very friendly. Well, on Fridays and Saturdays, they have a different menu for food and drinks at a bit higher price than the usual rates. The presentation of the dishes made us give an extra point to the Chef. The dishes looked so photogenic ! The desserts looked quite tempting and we are surely giving them a try on our next visit. 

We left the place with smile on our faces with a promise to return back !!
