It was Oktoberfest and we had decided to visit as many breweries as we could. So off we went to Kalyan Nagar, which as I&#8217;ve said before, is a place we enjoy visiting. This time, we also got to witness the famous (or infamous) &#8220;white topping&#8221;, because 7th Main, where Wanderers is located, was being subjected to it!<\/p>\n<p>We found the ground floor a little too closed, despite the landscape drapes! The next floor was not yet open, and so we sat on the rooftop, which we quite liked, despite me being underdressed for surgical strikes. A pedestal fan and mosquito coils helped.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13372 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-1-1024x911.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"712\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-1-1024x911.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-1-300x267.jpg 300w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-1-768x684.jpg 768w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-1-600x534.jpg 600w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-1.jpg 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/712;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We began with Cauvery&#8217;s Bliss and Erica. The first is a Pilsner style Lager. Crisp and slightly bitter, it was medium hop and went down smoothly. But we liked the latter more &#8211; K\u00f6lsch style ale, again medium hop. From what seemed an elaborate menu then, we asked for Assam&#8217;s Ghost Chili Balls. The filling was chicken spiced with chili beans and tossed in soy sauce. This was a very good beer companion though it took a while getting to the table.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13373 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-2-1024x451.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"352\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-2-1024x451.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-2-300x132.jpg 300w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-2-768x338.jpg 768w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-2-600x264.jpg 600w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-2.jpg 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/352;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Zomato had a 2+2 offer on drinks, so we ordered another Erica and a Wanderer&#8217;s Weizen, which was essentially a Hefeweizen.\u00a0 The Jamaican Pulled Pork Sliders weren&#8217;t available, so we tried a Liver Peppers. That&#8217;s when we first encountered the curry leaves fetish. At first, it didn&#8217;t bother us. But it hit us hard in the Coorgi Pork, which was a replacement for Australia&#8217;s Meat Pie, another dish that existed only on paper. Check out the images below, those two dishes are practically twins!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13374 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-3-1024x614.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"480\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-3-1024x614.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-3-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-3-768x461.jpg 768w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-3-600x360.jpg 600w, https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/collage-3.jpg 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/480;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For an artisan cafe, the desserts were pretty standard, so we skipped. After all, we have our own artisanal fare at Bloomsbury near home! The bill came to a little less than Rs.1550.
