Taj Hotel — Restaurant in Bengaluru

I recently had the pleasure of trying chicken lollipops at a local restaurant, and I must say, they were absolutely fantastic! These little bite-sized delights were bursting with flavor and had the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and tangy notes.

The chicken lollipops were beautifully marinated and perfectly cooked. The meat was moist and tender, and the flavors penetrated deep into every bite. The outer coating was crispy and had just the right amount of spice, giving it a satisfying crunch that complemented the juicy chicken inside.

What I loved most about these chicken lollipops was the variety of sauces they were served with. There was a tangy tamarind sauce that added a delightful sweet and sour element, a spicy chili sauce that packed a punch, and a cooling mint yogurt sauce that balanced out the flavors. Each sauce enhanced the taste of the chicken lollipops in its own unique way, allowing me to customize the experience to my liking.

The presentation was also top-notch. The chicken lollipops were served on a bed of fresh lettuce and garnished with spring onions, adding a pop of color and freshness to the dish. It was evident that great care was taken to make the dish visually appealing as well.

Overall, these chicken lollipops were a delightful treat for the taste buds. Whether you're a fan of spicy, tangy, or sweet flavors, there's something to satisfy everyone's palate. If you're looking for a flavorful and fun appetizer, I highly recommend giving chicken lollipops a try!

I recently tried chicken lollipops at a local restaurant, and I have to say, they were quite disappointing. The flavor was lacking and the overall experience fell short of my expectations.

The chicken lollipops were dry and overcooked, leaving the meat tough and chewy. The marinade lacked depth and failed to penetrate the chicken, resulting in a bland taste. The outer coating was also underwhelming and lacked the crispiness I had hoped for. It felt greasy rather than crispy, which was quite off-putting.

Additionally, the sauces served with the chicken lollipops were nothing to write home about. The chili sauce lacked spice and heat, the tamarind sauce was overly sweet, and the mint yogurt sauce lacked freshness and tanginess. The sauces did little to enhance the flavor of the chicken lollipops and felt like an afterthought.

In terms of presentation, it was lackluster. The chicken lollipops were simply placed on a plate without any garnish or attention to detail. It looked unappealing and didn't entice me to dig

Overall...

Finally after a lot's of critic's for more than a decade that this is one place to have good biriyani, I ventured in to have the most bitter experience of all the hotel's and restaurants I have dined in so far 😡😡😡😠😠😠😤😤😤

Asked for Kuska it was a NO NO... 🤨🤨🤨

Asked for tissues almost 3 servers pointed each other, one of them said they don't have tissue paper at all.. 😤😤😤

Yet waited till they gave me few before transferring biriyani to the plate. 😠😠😠😡😡😡 பிரியாணி கண் முன்னாடி இருந்தும் கை வைக்க முடியாத தருணம்😢😢😢

Ordered for grill though inside it said go far tandoori... 😏😏😏 This is where I did a mistake 😱😱😱 will come to this after Biriyani..

Biriyani was decent seeraga samba rice with balanced flavors but for me it's not biriyani at all... It's a good ghee rice with flavor resemblance of biriyani.. 🤨🤨🤨

Portion was good for but the priciest chicken biriyani I've had so far as far as I remember... Now that's the main reason I always opt for kuska and sides and never chicken.. 😒😒😒. If you are OK by satisfying the price VS quantity please feel free to Ensoii maadi here.. 🤨🤨🤨

Now comes the grill after I started with biriyani.. The very sight of seeing the plate I was horrified.... 😕😕😕

திங்கிங் நோய் வந்த கோழி போல.. ஹாஃப் கேட்டா குவார்ட்டர் குடுத்து இருக்கானுங்க... 😱😱😱😱

Took a bite and it was cold.. Grill and cold 😳😳😳

Asked the guy's there if this is how you serve grill... Biriyani half way and height of frustration, I stepped down and played cool... Not to yell... But the moment the guy put his bare hands on two of the pieces to check the warmth.... I went on full 😤😤😤😤😠😠😠😠 asked him if this is how you serve food and where were your hands before touching them he started arguing that they are warm and he can heat them up and bring back. I started blasting at him in हिन्दी cos they understand only hindi all were Indians from north east I dint wish to yell at them rather spoil my mood and lose the taste of biriyani. 😢😢😢

Canceled the grill, finished the biriyani and stepped off without feeling any taste of it. 😭😭😭

Never ever stepping...

Firstly hotel industry is a hospitality business where you respect your customers but when people keep walking in and money is pouring restaurant owners/waiters etc forget the fact of hospitality. On 9th September 2023, I and my mother went for lunch, and we went to the AC service hall on the ground floor. We had to literally wait for them to clean the table for more than 20 minutes and then we had to insist the manager take the order which took another 20 minutes, I agree that there was a rush but still the waiter and the person who took our order had zero manners. We ordered two mutton biryani, kabab and sheek. In spite of reminding the waiter and manager more than thrice, they did not give us the sheek, whereas I saw that the other table was being served properly, I did not understand this strange behavior. Later we cancelled the Sheek and asked for two thumps up, but neither was given, We waited for more than 15 minutes, and when I asked again the waiter, he was saying so much of a rush is there, but I saw him roaming around and just to bring two bottles do they need so much time? At last, we asked him to make a takeaway of our biryani which was one plate of food, The waiter brought food in a paper cover and we saw the biryani was reduced by them (how cheap people) and gave it as if he was giving some free-of-cost food. When we asked to give a carry bag, he said This is how it is, We don't give the bag, I left the food to his face (which actually did not bother them cos they got the money). This is not at all the behavior we expect, are we paying money to receive such behavior? India is a country where guests are treated with god, forget God these restaurant people did not treat us like a human as well, these people are charging money and disrespecting us. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone who prioritizes self-respect. They could have charged money for a carry bag but the worst behavior of the waiter and...
