Our review of the place, visited on 19/01/2025: Mangalore Pop up By Chef Shreya.
Enough for tasters., Not enough for a wholesome lunch.
Taste was okay, not the kind to rave about.
QUALITY matters but QUANTITY also matters to a certain extent.
The size of KUNDAPUR buns was MINI, 2 pcs, one pc per person.
For starters and desserts, there was NO PROVISION FOR REPEAT WHATSOEVER. Especially when the first serving fell way short of reasonable quantity and size.
The main course consisted of a few pieces of dosa crispies that they called sukhi roti. Sabjis, two in number, and daal preperations were okay in terms of quantity and taste.
Red Amaranth RAITA served was, laughingly, 3-4 tea spoons in the katori. जैसे कोई तिलक लगाने के लिए दे दिया है (see pic). We had to ask twice or thrice for another serving, which came after a long wait.
One item of yoghurt mentioned in the menu was completely missing.
From the menu, it seemed that there were four different items in the dessert. What came in the plate was laughable. There was a tiny piece of what they called ghee cake and the other items were even tinier. Just good enough for plating purpose. And as I mentioned earlier, THERE WAS NO PROVISION FOR REPEAT.
In such circumstances, a normal person would think twice before asking for another serving.
The only attraction was the ambience, the warm hospitality on entering.
After that and till the time we left, the air felt rather cold.
Only silver lining that's worth mentioning is the fact that not a single morsel of food could have been wasted in such a scenario.
All in all, we would never like to visit the place or the pop up again.
