A new world of coffee, courtesy the Classic Group

For those who know me well, I’m a bit of a stubborn mule when it comes to my coffee. My undying love and devotion to the traditional South Indian coffee doesn’t allow me to appreciate the other flavours available. Putting a dent in that armour, are the folks from the Classic Group. Building on five generations of coffee growers, the group are trying to spread awareness about the intricacies of coffee and how it’s a lot more than the morning cup we have at a local eatery. I was invited a couple of weeks ago to the groups office in Bangalore, where they have a slightly intimidating chemistry lab like setup, to understand some of the different styles of coffee, the different flavours and the aromas, as well as what food could be paired with the same. The workshop began with their Classic Mountain brand which is a 100% Arabica variant. We went through three different styles of brewing. The ‘Pour Over’ technique, which is a slightly longer procedure (and a bit intimidatin...

Bangalore Cocktail Week - Whisky Cocktail Masterclass with Jamie Walker

After its successful run in Mumbai and Delhi, the ‘Cocktail Week’ property moves to Bangalore. Bangalore Cocktail week kicked off on the 27th of August. With a mix of bartending competitions, masterclasses by some of the best bartenders and a range of cocktails available at restaurants that have tied up with the team, the festival looks all set to make folks in the city fall in love with cocktails all over again. Given my superficial expertise ( aka drinks a lot and reads Wikipedia) on whisky, I attended the Whisky Cocktail Masterclass at the Watsons pub in Bangalore, which featured Jamie Walker, Diageo's Reserve Brand Ambassador , along with Sebastian, from Watsons who kicked off the masterclass with a whisky 101 session. While I’ve attended a couple of these in the past, Jamie’s style of presenting was absolutely engaging. Successfully balancing the technical details with humorous anecdotes and history lessons, Jamie brought some excellent energy to what could have ea...

Navu Project...back with a bang!

My wife and I distinctly remember our very first meal at Navu Project, when it was at its previous location, being one of our very early meals outside after the lock down of the pandemic years. I vividly recall telling my wife after the first few bites of the Cauliflower Creme Brulee that food like this makes me want to write again and share my experiences. While I never did get around to writing about that meal, and the many others that we had in the months to follow, here's our experience of a lovely dinner from two weeks ago at Navu Project's new location. Having moved to a smaller, more cozy location in Domlur, the kitchen continues to put up brilliant food. We started with our forever-favourite- the Cauliflower Creme Brulee. I've lost count of the number of times I've recommended this to anyone going there for dinner. The balance of texture and flavour has always brought a smile to my face. When we ordered the Jackfruit and Litchi salad, expecting it to be similar ...
