Things to do in Bengaluru?

Hi, I’m an IT worker in Dublin. I sometimes travel to Bengaluru (Bangalore) in India for my
job. On my next trip, I want to see some of the city. Can you tell me about some good
restaurants and places to visit?

Hi Danny. Bombay Brasserie is a great restaurant in Bengaluru. It’s in the Indiranagar part of
the city, on 12th Main Road. There’s a nice patio outside with tables and chairs. For lunch, try
the vegetable curry – it’s not expensive and it’s very good!

I love MTR (Mavali Tiffin Rooms) for a quick, Indian breakfast. In my view, it’s the best place
to eat in Bengaluru! There are nine MTR cafés in the city. The café on Lal Bagh Road is
great because it’s near a beautiful park called Lal Bagh Botanical Gardens.

You’re right, Arundhati_B – MTR is really good! I think Cubbon Park is nice, too. There are
sometimes yoga classes in the park in the morning, or you can go running there.

Thank you, Rohit2016, Arundhati_B, and kinnuk – great ideas!
