When the Earth’s
cuisine came to one single plate!
They don’t say Thank
God it’s Friday just like that. There are absolute and nice reasons behind
it. This particularly Friday, we the colleagues, ganged up against one nice
other colleague who was to treat on occasion of ummm….many many things. She successfully
completed her Research course and officially turned into a Dr., followed by
successfully completing her driving course and received her driving license and
buying a brand new car and oh yes! She also successfully completed a year in
the company. So, to celebrate her successful completion of many things, we
asked her to treat us out. She just couldn’t say no. After all, it was only to
celebrate her successes!
Since it’s a Friday and no one in the team is in no mood to
work, we realised may be the food will wonders and bring us back our
dedication. So, not deciding to go too far, we thought of exploring a new
restaurant in HSR Layout, Bangalore that calls itself, Earth Plate. We’ve noticed this
restaurant on our way back and had always wondered, so many cuisines at one
place?? We have got to explore this place.
We reach and our super-food enthusiastic boss runs up the
stairs to book a table for us. No buffet for us, he declared. We will go
al-a-carte. And there we went deciding what each of will be having:
I ordered a Syberian Sunset (a cool and refreshing drink
made of orange, pineapple, peach and apricot, topped with soda) for my drink
while another colleague ordered Blue Island Ice Tea (a delightful crush of
litchi, peach, apricot and mango with a dash of blue curacao topped with
cranberry juice), a sweet and juicy rip off of Long Island Ice Tea, I suppose.
The others, read the Boss and the treating host, our PhD qualified in this
case, settled for sweet and salt Lime Soda.

Vegetable Chimichanga (flour tortillas stuffed with jack,
Colby cheese, cottage cheese, shredded carrot and capsicum, rolled and deep
fried served with Spanish rice and Latino set) was my main course, two others
ordered Stuff Mushroom in Smoked Barbeque Sauce Sizzler (Mushroom stuffed in
spinach and cheese, served with smoked barbeque sauce accompanied with potato
wedges and herb rice) and Grilled Chicken Sashlik Sizzler (cubes of boneless
chicken served with rice, sweet and sour and Garlic Sauce) and lastly the good
old, Chicken Biriyani. So this was a mix of food from all geographical zones.
Truly, the earth was there on one table!

The food was good, and the ambience too. Only that it being
a Friday, the place had office teams from all over. Well, guess we were lucky
to have found ourselves a table. The foods were served a little late, for
understandable reasons. The next time I visit this restaurant, I am going to
try out the buffet menu, now that I am convinced about their quality of food.
