MY TOPMOST 8 FAVOURITE DISHES OF 2021❤️

Hey hive family! I hope you all are doing amazing & staying safe!

In this situation of pandemic, low mood & mood swings are pretty common issue and one thing absolutely can cheer me up is FOOD✌️ Yes, I love food over anything else.

So in lockdown time, I almost got myself into fatty pumpkin shape🙈 cause my love & addiction towards some of the food made me eat it all day and very often. I used to order via delivery apps or very rarely dine in at my favourite restaurants.

These are the top 8 food items I got addicted to in this lockdown period:

PIZZA MONTANARA
Wondering which way does it look like pizza, eh!? Yes, it is a special type of deep fried Pizza popular in Italian region.

Small discs of pizza dough deep fried on both sides, to puff into airy balls, and punched and made a hole to fill up the toppings of choice. Toppings consists of fresh tomatoes with basil as base,Marinara or tomato based tangy sauce, then shreaded meat of your choice, followed by the oozing cheese. Small cups of cheesy discs are fun to grab and bite. And it's too Cheeeeessssssyyyyyyy and addictive.

NEERDOSA & CHICKEN GHEEROAST
A very thin rice crépe and a ghee fried masala spicy gheeroast chicken is my favourite go to breakfast item. I can suck this any time of the day as this is pure local delicacy & true love.

CHICKEN BUTTERGARLIC
One classic dish, where crisp fried chicken chunks are soaked in a pool of creamy butter garlic exotic gravy. Each bite takes you to foodgasmic heaven and make you crave for more. Perfectly dunked chicken in the velvety soft gravy is the BEST ever! Mild sweetish and thick sauce, with punch of garlic flavour, tops in my list when at Bacchus. Available in Paneer, Mushroom, Prawn variants as well.

CHICKEN BIRYANI
Authentic dum cooked biryani just with the juices of meat and amalgamation of Indian spices with long grain rice, with add-ons of raisins, fried cashews makes heavenly meal. The proper and legit biryani as the name. Chicken was cooked such a way that meat was pulling down bones effortlessly, and juicy meat left water added classic rich taste to rice. Matka(pot) was real feel and heritage experience here.

CRAB PEPPERFRY
A fresh gigantic crab was roasted with authentic pepper masala with loads of curry leaves and fried onions, topped with corinader.

Pepper flavour profile was so dominant, spicy and nicely curated that it goes really well with the sweet crab flesh.

Coming to crab, I was excited to try the huge body and leg part to get enough flesh and peppery hot masala. Though very tedicious to break the shell, I thoroughly enjoyed it to get the loads of sweet flesh and totally worth all my effort🤤

SILVER FISH FRY
Silver fish, with a tiny negligible bones, easy to eat and less messy. Rawa fry of it makes more tastier with crunch and crisp. Absolutely loved here, as fish was fresh and taste was perfect to munch.

Crunchy, crispy, tender & tasty🤤

EGG STUMBLER
one legendary spot in Mangalore famous for it's Egg preparations. It claims that the taste from the day they started shop till today remains same serving more than 10 variety of egg delicacies.

I had tried their very famous Egg STUMBLER, the small chunks of bread and Egg tossed well in the onion and tomato mix, spiced up well enough to hack the taste buds. Sure addiction if you taste once! May be the person who prepares here is same from the day1 and hands have got magic😉

POMFRET FISH FRY
Pomfret Rawa fry, being the showstopper of the dinner, is one of the best Rava fry had so far. Fresh and neatly cooked huge pomfret was coated in rava equally without any gaps, and fried to perfection.

Dig into it, gives you the tender flesh of melt in mouth fish covered with crunchy rava coating. Thoroughly enjoyed this appetizer.
