For the past couple of years, we have been to BBC – i.e. Bengaluru Baking Company in JW Marriott for their scrumptious bakes and their lovely High Teas. The bright and chic café in the ground floor of the hotel has a beautiful layout with their offerings from the patisserie and a chocolate boutique, entering into a marble oval island featuring various beverages, and a feast of sweets and savories. And then a nice, windy alfresco that’s perfect for a lazy evening. Recently, BBC launched an all new menu. So one afternoon, post an amazing blow out session at Blown, a friend and I headed to JW to check out this menu.

The menu reads as Love at First Bite, and couldn’t have been named more aptly. A nice classy café menu that actually has the pricing of a bistro despite being in a 5-star hotel. Salads and sandwiches seemed like a good place to start. Asian Chopped Salad and BBC’s version of the BLT sandwich in a salad were our choices for entrée. The Asian Salad was light, fresh and healthy – lettuce, carrot, bean sprouts with peanuts, mint and coriander balancing the flavors well. The BLT was delightful, bacon and poached egg with lots of greens – exactly my kinda salad. The chef recommended the BBC Bombay Sandwich, and we loved it! Absolutely yummy, well done! Then we got the Orange Caprese, a twist on the classic caprese

And these!

We also got some of their beautiful pot teas, those tea pots are definitely work of art. My choice of beverage was Very Berry Strawberry – that was probably the prettiest drink slash dessert ever! Vaishnavi got the Chikmagalur cold coffee – and that was quite something – Frozen Coffee cubes with flavored milk. Really great coffee, rendered quite differently. We also got the Prawn Po Boy – and shared it all around!

The menu also has wraps, pastas and burgers – but honestly the first two courses were way too filling to move past. I did order a couple of beers from their brewery, and they have a tap right in BBC. They serve hookah as well. Definitely heading back to try some more of this inspired menu, can definitely say it’s worth it!

The Triple!
