When Cyclone Nilam was ravaging Tamilnadu, Bangalore saw it's side effects with two days of incessant rains, crazy winds and sudden drop in temperature turning Bangalore into a veritable hill station all of a sudden. Considering there was hardly any rain during the entire rainy season, everyone welcomed these showers (atleast for the first day before the roads got worse, traffic turned for worst and damp clothes occupied every available surface in the house!;)
All said and done, the weather was gorgeous - the kind where you either cuddle under a razaai all day long or step out and enjoy the rains. We decided to do the later! We left thinking of having lunch at some new place in the city. But both the places we shortlisted were typically enclosed spaces and how does one enjoy the weather there, really?
So, we just turned the car around and decided to go to another new place we had just heard about called Cafe Buzzinga in Whitefield, Bangalore. Found the phone number, called and found exactly where it was and reached. It is lovely open space @ Lakeview Farms (which in itself is a private property - a part of which the owners have given for commercial purposes).
Cafe Buzzinga is as casual as it's name makes it sound. Run by two young partners, it is a simple place with daily fresh menu on a white board and comfortable cane chairs on pebbled ground. The kids felt at home instantly. Add to that the huge lawn (belonging to the owners) where they had a free run (till the owners came along) and indulgent service - we ended up having an absolutely fabulous afternoon!
What made the whole experience superlative was customer delight offered by the cafe! We absolutely LOVED the bacon in their all day breakfast combo. Since we wanted to have more of the said bacon, we asked them if they could make us a bacon/cheese sandwich which was not on the menu. There wasn't a moment of hesitation and a perfectly grilled sandwich was at our table soon enough! :)
Here are some pictures that should give you an idea! :)
On our way out! Cub holding Bub's hand to keep her under the umbrella, while Bub has plans of her own! ;)
In the middle of the huge lawn of Lakeview Farms! :)
Cub trying to channelize his inner Hulk! But he was too happy to get it right! :)
Arre Bhaiyya! Let me pose by myself! :)
Doing a round of the lawn while the food gets ready! :)
and Bub chose to take a walk with her Papa! :)
Time for some hot chocolate?! :) Served very thoughtfully in a little Espresso cup for a little girl! :)
Content smiles post a great meal and a good time! :)
The lake and wet roads on our way back!

Lovely pics :) :)
Spiderman umbrella for our handsome Hulk huh? Wah wah!;)
Very cool post. Literally... all those wet roads and wet trees made me start to shiver...!
Too bad we never got a picture of the food. It was over before we knew it. Now I am really worried about our next visit; will they be able to keep up the awesomeness? :-)
