Since there are enough side lanes around, parking is not likely to be a big problem.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Its more a friendly neighbourhood place than anything you&#8217;d come halfway across town for. But that also means that whenever I&#8217;ve passed by, I&#8217;ve seen it completely packed. We reached there a bit early, a little before 7.45. That, and the rains meant that we were among the first to arrive. But by 8.30 it was getting filled fast.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rendezvous has a warm dimly lit ambiance, with some good retro music in the background. Nothing elaborate in terms of decor and furniture, but neat and a great place to sip a beer and watch Koramangala life passing by. The menu is mostly Continental, with some Chinese options too.

D and I shared a Mexican soup pot and my sis asked for a Cream of Chicken. Our soup, though described as a broth, was quite thick and creamy , and had salami, chicken and boiled vegetable with some cheese, that added a little zing to it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/CIMG1354.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-4467 lazyload\" title=\"CIMG1354\" data-src=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/CIMG1354-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 150px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 150\/150;\" \/><\/a>We skipped the starters and the Chinese options and got busy trying to  choose from a range of steaks, pastas and burgers. I asked for a Chicken  Crepes, D ordered a Peppered Chicken Pasta and my sis ordered a &#8216;Gold  and Red&#8217; burger. The Crepes were conspicuous by their absence, but the tangy mushroom sauce, and the spicy mashed potato ensured that I wasn&#8217;t left too disappointed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/CIMG1355.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-4468 lazyload\" title=\"CIMG1355\" data-src=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/CIMG1355-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 150px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 150\/150;\" \/><\/a>The missing component continued in D&#8217;s Peppered pasta, so D did a DIY with the pepper on the table, but apparently it still remained bland.So this turned out to be a disappointing choice.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/CIMG1356.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-4469 lazyload\" title=\"CIMG1356\" data-src=\"https:\/\/manuscrypts.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/CIMG1356-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 150px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 150\/150;\" \/><\/a>My sis&#8217; Gold and Red burger turned out to be a mixed bag. The Gold half, which had cheese and salami was apparently good, but the Red half, with a cold chicken salad was given a cold shoulder. She also felt that the salad may have been her age. I was the only one not complaining much. No comments on the lines of &#8216;you eat anything&#8217; will be tolerated. Hmmph. I was too stuffed for dessert, though there was even a marble cake, and the others weren&#8217;t too sure what would land up on the table.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All of the above cost us just over Rs.700. The service was quite prompt. I think it serves as a good hangout joint, so this goes into a no gain, no pain category.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rendezvous, 15\/1, 80 ft Road, Koramangala 4th Block Ph: 25631177<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Menu at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zomato.com\/bangalore\/restaurants\/south\/koramangala\/the-rendezvous-51021\" target=\"_blank\">Zomato<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A rendezvous that took quite some time, though its just a few minutes away from home.
