Zen Kitchen Mysuru — Restaurant in Karnataka

Imagine finding this place through pure serendipity on a morning walk in Gokulam, Mysuru! Even as a planned outing, ZKM ought to offer a few surprises. I will stay clear of labels and say the essence of the place lies in its casual channeling of a calm haven aesthetic from the Hindu pantheon evoking the name of the area it is a part of. It seems to cater to people who come to Gokulam from around the world in search of Ashtanga Yoga. When we were there, we found a few Swedes seated on a mattress laid out on the floor. That should convey the general vibe of the place. It screams casual, forgive the near oxymoron.

This is a tiny place that's run as an extension of someone's home. We were treated to a good morning coffee. Bigger orders could be a while coming given that it's one person taking your orders and servicing them. That's not the point of the place though. The best thing is to come here with more than an hour to kill and laze around with finger food and a beverage.

Curios constitute the aesthetic of the place that is defined by two things: Krishna and yellow.

I'm going back to ZKM for breakfasts in the years to come. Highly recommended for coffee and a lazy vibe if you're in...

My all time favourite and go to place since 3 months in Mysore. They have the best, most healthiest food with same time very cost effective foods.. No greasy, spicy, unnecessary salty foods you find here... My most fav is their Cheese omlette with toast, green omlette with toast, Aloo Paratha, Chapathi with Paneer hyderabadi, Masala papad, dal khichdi, Palak Khichdi, ABC juice, coffee, lemon ginger tea, energy ball, list goes on .. Srikanth is an amazing host, he even customizes the food as per your expectation.. Vegan and saatvik food is available here .. I'm in love with the vibe of this place... So friendly and positive... No music but you enjoy the feeling...

Vegan approved 👍

Designed as a sit down eatery, it blends the calm and quiet neighborhood with delectable food.

We tried the Shahi Tofu , Veg Pulao, Veg Kohlapuri, Dal Palak, Dal Kichdi, Aloo Paratha and crispy vegetables (pakoras).

Food was amazing, very close to what we make at home. Highly recommend trying the Lime Mint Juice on a warm day.

The service is quick and food is fresh. Highly recommend trying out this place.

We went with 2 toddlers and was a pleasant experience. We feel, thanks to our excited kids, the zen was being stolen from the place but luckily there wasn't...
