Loved the music posters &#8211; the Bob Dylan concert one was my favourite. There are also a couple of fun little Bangalore caricatures. In essence, a great place to lounge around. I think it would do even more better if there was alcohol. The music was superb, until they reached a point where MLTR tracks started playing in a loop.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zomato.com\/bangalore\/boondock-bistro-whitefield\/menu#tabtop\" target=\"_blank\">menu<\/a> is not vast but offers sufficient choice. We began with a cream of chicken soup. Though it had its share of cornflour, there was enough cream and chicken for us not to complain. We then tried a Bacon Wrapped Chicken. It would have been really awesome if the sauce was a tad bit thicker, but despite that, it&#8217;s still worth a try. I have tried the Chilli Beef Strips earlier, and those are really good.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10685 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/collage12-911x1024.jpg\" alt=\"collage1\" width=\"600\" height=\"674\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/collage12-911x1024.jpg 911w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/collage12-267x300.jpg 267w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/collage12-600x674.jpg 600w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/collage12.jpg 1068w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/674;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We dropped the idea of a second starter and asked for a Brandied Cube Steak and The Spud-nik. The beef steak was served with herb rice. The beef itself was cooked just right, and the juice added a nice flavour and moistness to the dish. The Spud-nik was a giant potato stuffed with chicken, mushroom and a whole lot of baked beans. Though I found it quite tasty, D found it difficult to finish. I suspect it had something to do with the quantity of baked beans. We had asked for an Oreo shake but that wasn&#8217;t available.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10686 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/collage22-1024x450.jpg\" alt=\"collage2\" width=\"600\" height=\"264\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/collage22-1024x450.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/collage22-300x132.jpg 300w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/collage22-600x264.jpg 600w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/collage22.jpg 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/264;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The meal above cost us a little over Rs.1150.\u00a0The service was quite friendly and prompt.
